    The point I was making is that you could have given a 7 day period before you dispatched , if you knew you were going to be busy


    You cant give a longer period now as otherwise you can no longer sell on Ebay which is currently on the Community Forums.

    Yes you can, you can list 1,2,3,4,5,10,15,20 or 30 days but if you list a time over 3 days you get a message saying "If you select a longer dispatch time, please note that buyers will be notified of the longer dispatch time when they view your item."

    Of course you can but you get penalized for doing so and it is discussed on another post by Soolin who often posts on here,

    I use second class with no problems at all and that is one category where I (so far) have no low stars. I am very careful though with my despatch details and quote 2 working days and usually send within 1.

    The margins are so tight that there is little room for error. Anyway I have heard back from my buyer who is happy to be refunded his postage and his item has been sent.

    Yes, but take over 3 days and the buyers are not happy - Ebay will throw you off.

    They should stop offering a dispatch above 3 days.
