Quoted from Playdium:It only gets worse. So as a seller you can no longer have funds sent directly through Paypal. They are collected by Ebay, and after a "processing" period they release the funds to your bank account, less any fees.Which can take 4-5 days depending on when the sale was made. However, the shipping fees are deducted from your Paypal account, which in turn is linked to your bank account. (If you print shipping labels via Ebay)
This all occurs while you are shipping the goods without receiving any funds.
Have you contacted Customer Service yet? They aren't in the U.S.
On the page where you print shipping there is a payment option to switch to use pending funds. Then ebay just reduces the payout that goes to your bank account, a lot nicer than being out money for some amount of time.
