Is it being held for anything in particular? If not, it's probably best just to wait it out. My guess is that it might just be a currency conversion thing; check back in with it tomorrow morning.

I called paypal to find out why and they said it is a way of making sure the funds are safely transfered. i think they just holding the money and making interest off of it. i really wanted the money today but was told i have to wait a minimum of 6 days so that is why i am asking for help.

You really think Paypal is holding your measly $250 to gain what is essentially nonexistent interest?

It's not interest or anything of that sort. It's simply a normal screening process. It doesn't happen to everyone, but does happen nonetheless. Just wait it out.

There has been a lot of issues with paypal regarding it's trading, whether it's disputes or fraud. They've made the system really intense so nothing like that happens. A while ago I was sent some money and it was held until I gave them my license. Just wait it out.
