Years ago I set up a business PayPal account after selling through my personal for years. After taking orders, I pulled in $13k in a few days and went to pay my suppliers, only to find PayPal had frozen my account for suspected fraud. I had already provided all the tax information and so on, but they insisted on freezing my account for 12 months! Magnanimously, they allowed me to withdraw $300 per month. After 6 months, PayPal let me take out 600 per month. In the end it took 2 years to get the money out, and I shut down the account and never touched a PayPal merchant account again. In the meantime, I kept my business going by selling through Stripe and front loading enough sales to ship the orders for the earlier customers. Was a fun time! So while it wasn't through eBay, like this seller, I would say he's very fortunate to reach someone in support there with a brain and common sense.
