HI Guys,

You were all really hepful about my shill bidding episode thought I'd get your advice on this one (I seem to be getting them all on eBay at the moment!)

Yesterday evening I won an item - today when I log in I have a message from the seller saying

HI Naz,

If this item is not pay by midday I will relist it so please keep me inform of your action.

Many thanks
Tish

I pay promptly for all my items but I know there is a eBay limit - 7 days I think but can't find where it says it on eBay. Just wanted to let her know about that (she is quite a newbie) when I reply to her.

Thanks!

    Yes, you should let her know.

    She'll get herself thrown off ebay in no time with an attitude like that.

    Ooohh...that would really annoy me. I would just have to wait until tomorrow now and see if she relists.

    The only grace I would give is if they were a new seller and would point them to ebays T&C in a polite way.
