Sold on Ebay

I recently put a item on ebay on an auction and someone won the item on 11th June when it ended, since then I haven't heard anything from the buyer. I have sent the invoice. How long do you normally wait for payment? As this is the first time that I have sold anything on ebay.
Thanks in advance for replying

Hi there,
It isn't unusual for buyers to make no contact, often a cheque will just turn up in the post a week or so later.
Usually I wait until about day 7 and send a polite email asking if everything is OK and if payment has been made. Depending on the response to that I might consider starting the NPB on day 10-12.
Ebay 'allow' 7 days for a buyer to make payment before the seller can even start the NPB process, so you are far too early to be worrying yet.
