eBay and PayPal

[SophRichRel]

I just started selling on eBay under the name NaturalMaui1. You can see the widget of the things I have listed on my profile.

I've sold a couple of things already. Payment can only come to me through PayPal but I don't know. I might change that. We'll see how it goes a little while longer. They are holding my money for 21 days. Of course the first thought that came to my mind was that they put it somewhere to collect interest within those 21 days (not just my money but 100's combined).

Does eBay have the monopoly? I know that around the world the energy is changing and that business practices such as what eBay and PayPal (same owners I believe, correct me if I'm wrong) are doing by holding our money for 21 days is supposed to come to an end soon. That'll certainly be nice. The protection for the buyer is good though but I think the buyer is just the scapegoat in this case.
