    You are happy to pay immediately, I prefer to pay later.
    I don't need my items immediately, I can wait a few days.

    Do us all a favour & post your eBay ID, I can't imagine any sellers on here want to wait a few days until you are 'ready' to pay them. One for the block list I think chaps!! :cool:

    But I agree with her and you never said how many transactions you've made, although not sure why it makes a difference.

    It's almost certain that the standard Buy It Now (pay later) items are viewed/bought more than items when listed with Immediate Payment Required text visible.
    Our sales haven't dropped since introducing immediate payment, and no-one can see the immediate payment requirement from the search results.
    This is my opinion. There are many others like it but this is mine

    I am a professional ebay seller. I work hard at my job, I love my job, if you think it's silly that's your problem not mine. :p

    Peter999, not only do you delete emails but you duplicate some a lot later as well. If you are experiencing problems with MSE can I suggest you get in touch with the techie guys.
