Any PayPal experts around?

I sold some furniture on Facebook, I’ve done a lot of research on the buyer and I’m sure she’s legitimate. The furniture is big so understandably she’s sending a man in a van. She’s sent payment on PayPal but it’s on hold? It says I can get the money faster if I provide tracking info, but obviously it’s not an official courier so I can’t do that. Will I still be able to get my money after the time period has passed?

She'll probably claim to have not received it, sadly. Then you'll have no item and no money.

Why not refund the paypal payment and tell her to send cash with the courier. Then you are not going to be fleeced.

Yep when selling online and someone's coming to pick it up in person, cash only!
