that really has got me all cross

I placed an auction for an item on a buy it now. Pleased when someone had purchased it only to read "sorry my fault, didn't read that you didn't accept paypal but I don't want to take you up on your offer now" So I replied by saying that I don't normally accept paypal but as he wanted it I would allow him to pay via paypal....what have I heard from him????? nothing, nothing at all!!!!

    How long ago did you send the message to the buyer? Perhaps they haven't been able to check their messages/emails as yet.

    I agree with the previous poster - the buyer may not have had time to read their emails. If you hear nothing after 7 days contact them again just before 7 days and then do a dispute with them.

    I think for a BIN purchase and no contact other than the original one I'd start the NPB as early as day 7.

    More and more people buy from me, then ask, do I take paypal. No, I don't. I state that in the description BIG AND BOLD.

    Does anyone have an actual phone number I can contact ebay in the uk on, rather than emailing them?

    Thanks
