Ebay Payment

[neebover]

Just a quick question..... How long after winning a bid should someone be making a payment? I have chased up and sent a few emails to no response!!

[s2driveruk]

unless the buyer has stated they are away etc I would expect payment within 7 days personally.

Resend the invoice, leave 3 days then I would probably think about raising a dispute?

[Acidburn]

most people normally pay or let you know asap. Was it an expensive item?

[Jamo]

I normally give people 7 days

[Animal Mother]

They have "at least" 7 days.
On day 8, if they haven't paid yet, you can file an UNPAID ITEM DISPUTE.

The dispute will give them another week to pay. If they respond to the dispute with excuses and still don't pay, you can close the dispute and give them a strike for non-payment. If they pay, fine... you'd ship the item. If they don't respond at all, the dispute automatically closes after a week.

Once the dispute is closed, the transaction is considered closed also. You get your Final Value Fee back, plus a possible relist credit if you want to relist the item.

Definitely contact the buyer now and be polite. If there is no response be a little stronger and start the dispute on day day 7. Sadly non payers are common on ebay and are a real hassle for genuine sellers.

Thanks for the responses.. was just a digital camera for £25. The buyer won the auction on Sunday gone and I have sent the invoice and 2 emails and had no replies. The buyer appears new to ebay and has not got any feedback or a score over ten. I'll leave it until next Monday which will be the 8th day then dispute it? Everyone else and other buyers have paid up right away and items dispatched. Suppose there is always one who don't follow the rules!!!!
