Once the buyer passes his background check they will release it to them.

I?ve done deals where the seller and I couldn?t meet up for the deal. I?ve dropped off my firearm with the FFL and went home. A day or two later the buyer goes into the FFL and does the background check and picks it up.
This is my experience too.
