whats a reasonable amount of time to wait for payment?

Hi

I sold some items on 23rd July, one person hasn't paid yet, I understand it's only been 3 days, so not overly bothered. Just wondered how long should I wait before chasing up the payment? Don't want to seem pushy, but don't want to be waiting for too long!

Thanks

Ebay allows 7 days.

My advice is not to do owt until then above sending a payment reminder.

I have a nasty habit, if an item is ending a couple of days before payday (the 28th) I will still bid on it but not pay until the 28th.

Could be happening a fair bit around this time of the month.

i tend to do that too but if its more than a day or 2 wait i usualy mail the seller to let them know when i will be paying

I bid on something and then completely forgot I'd done it (age probably). Then I didn't open my emails for a week. Oh, the shame! I paid immediately and then sent the seller an email to apologise. She left me lovely feedback which was very nice of her, considering. !!!!!! happens
