There are many reasons for PayPal pending the payment.

 

Reasons for Pending PayPal Payments:

 

-The buyer is using an unverified PayPal account

-The eBay buyer has a limited selling history

-The eBay buyer has a Below Standard rating

-The buyer funded the transaction from a bank account and there is a hold on the authorization on the bank side

 

Typically, PayPal & eBay will make funds available to you within 3 days or 72 hours. If this does not happen, contact eBay or PayPal to let them know the payment has not been released to you. You can also open an eBay unpaid case for your item.
