What is a reasonable response time?

Hi,
Was just wondering on people's thoughts re a reasonable response time please? On Friday (29th June) evening I won a "buy it now" auction for a wardrobe for £75. (I can't remember the final listing end date but it was round about this Friday, 6th July). As I do with all my ebay auctions, as soon as I had the confirmation I had won the item I paid the £75 via paypal (the seller confirmed in his listing this method of payment was fine).
As the item is a wardrobe it is a buyer collects item which is absolutely fine. I wrote to the seller on Friday evening shortly after making payment to say I had won the auction and asked him when would be good for me to collect. As yet I have received no response. What do people think is a reasonable time for a response re a "buy it now" , "buyer collects" auction? I don't want to appear a complete pain but as I am due to give birth on Saturday I'm actually quite keen to get the wardrobe collected asap and also a bit worried about my £75!!
Thanks so much

Its a bit strange that if its collection only that the buyer would take Paypal, but better for you in that you can get your money back should they not contact you.
How have you contacted them?
If by email, try via My Messages on Ebay and vice versa. Also get their phone number and call them you need seller's user id and item number Find Contact Details.0
