PayPal related policy and integration

I am currently developing an auction website and I am wondering if I can hold payments. I need to do this to avoid unfair deals. For example:

A seller didn't deliver the item to the buyer. I need to hold the payment and then once the buyer has confirmed that the item has been delivered the payment will be transferred to the account of the seller. Is there any possible way to attain this logic?

Thanks

What I could suggest is to make use of Authorization and Capture in PayPal. It uses Express Checkout API which can be achieved in order to delay the order fullfillment. Authorization & Capture, or Auth/Capture, allows you to authorize the availability of funds for a transaction but delay the capture of funds until a later time. This is often useful for merchants who have a delayed order fulfillment process
