    You need to make the cheque out to the seller. When you went through the checkout it should have given there name and address details so you know who to make the cheque out to and who to send it to.

    Ebay is the middle man (sexist I know) they just hold the auction on there website but don't hold the goods. That is why they make so much money.

    maybe if you follow these instructions, the Payment Coupon that you print out may have all the details your require.

    I have printed the payment coupon, but there is nothing saying who to write the cheque out for..so i'm guessing it's ebay.co.uk, but i don't want to write that and get it sent back :confused:

    oops I assumed that you had bought something not that you where paying fees. Think it was a bit of both you not being very clear and me assuming.

    I pay my fees by credit card so have no idea.

    I will just shut up and go and hide under a stone :o
