I feel like I know a bit about character transfers and I’m bored enough to reply.  
[https://eveskillboard.com/guides/transfer](https://eveskillboard.com/guides/transfer)

There are 2 ways to pay for a character transfer:

1. 20$, this is an automated method that CCP instantly kicks off once money has been recieved. The character takes 10 hours to transfer (not really, they just give a bit of buffer time)

2. 1000 plex put into your in game vault and then opening a support ticket requesting a GM to manually move the character.  
Something important here is once the GM moves the character it is instant, there is **no** 10 hour wait period, there is **no** email that the character was transferred, its just done.

I’ve had a GM transfer a character in less than 10 minutes from opening a ticket, and I’ve waited longer than a week. You are at the mercy of the ticket queue count, and how active they are.

I always suggested its very important to advertise which method of transfer you plan to use in a character sale so the buy has the correct expectations of how long its going to take to transfer once a deal has been agreed upon.

EDIT:  
I also found it cordial to include a screenshot of my ticket to the GM to help instill confidence in the buyer that I’m not scamming them
