You probably have a long, proven history with eBay and Paypal so they release the money to your account right away. I've had an eBay and Paypal account since '99 with 100% positive feedback so it is the same for me. However, if you open a new account, or don't have a lot of positive feedback, Paypal now holds the money in your account for 21 days or until the buyer leaves you positive feedback. They are really starting to tighten it up...
