How long do you give a buyer to pay?
sold a fairly valuable item on ebay last week. the winning bidder put a bid on at the last second and I sent the invoice within about fifteen minutes so its not as if the buyer bid at the beginning and hasn't been around.

Selling on amazon, which service for expedited delivery ?
Which service do amazon buyers normally expect for "expedited delivery" ? I've set my prices for special delivery next day, but I'm wondering if maybe they just want first class ? I have free postage (2nd class) on all of my items, so maybe expedited should just be first?

I listed a guitar amp head on gum tree (Odd item to scam its HEAVY and bulky) for roughly 390 the buyer asked if I'd be willing to accept 340 I agreed.

Policy for re-sending an item undelivered?
I've tried to search for this but not been successful. I sent a recorded packet in March and it was returned to me with a Royal Mail note stating 'not called for'. I assume it wasn't signed for and not collected from the PO. I'm happy to re-send but who is liable for postage? Logic would suggest the buyer would need to…

What is reasonable amount to leave in Paypal account?
Just wondered how much money people left in their paypal account? When a sale is made and payment received, do you transfer the amount to your bank account straight away? Or do you wait till there is reasonable amount before you ask for a transfer? Is there any harm in leaving any amount in the paypal ac?
