What are the ways to cash out my earnings in the auction house?

The video just posted from Blizzard CS says your can't (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NkHx7XqzRYE) but the Diablo III FAQ says you can (http://us.battle.net/support/en/article/diablo-iii-auction-house-functionality#q12)

Disagree this is a duplicate. Previous question asked about cashing out from the auction house, while this question has to do with cashing out battle.net balance. Two different things. The actual answer is no, once something is Battle.net balance, it's stuck that way and can only be used for things like WoW subscriptions, other RMAH purchases, or purchasing other blizzard games. However, the RMAH allows you to choose whether money goes into battle.net balance, or directly to an attached paypal account. – demeteloaf May 22 '12 at 21:41
@demeteloaf - The question is the same. You cannot tranfer Battle.net Balance to PayPal. The RMAH will allow you to either transfer the amount of money to EITHER OR per the bloody documentation. – Ramhound May 24 '12 at 11:40

They don't support cashing it out in the normal sense, as Blizzard will not transfer the balance to a bank account for you. However you can link your account to a Paypal account, and "cash out" your balance to that - this is what the Diablo 3 FAQ is referring to. There is a 15% transfer fee on that.

This is also not a universal solution. I believe there may be region/country-specific restrictions on Paypal allowing cashing out of your balance.

This answer is not correct. You CANNOT transfer a Battle.net Balance to PayPal. You must choose one or the other when you post the item. – Ramhound May 24 '12 at 11:41
