    Probably a glitch but one listing said i could have it the next day. Fair enough if its 1st class post it may arrive the day after posting. But this was around 10pm that would have been some seller to get it here by the next day on that one.

    I have ordered late afternoon and had items arrive the next day though and as a i buyer i have come to expect that :)

    And there is the problem. I need to get everything to my local sorting office by 1.30 to get it collected, so there is no way I could offer this service. My latest enquiry about a missing item isn't even due until tomorrow.

    Do ebay take weekends/bank holidays into account ?

    No. I am buyer and had a laugh at the expected to arrive two today's later when it was christmas eve.:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    I click the yes it arrived usually, only once did I put no but did put arrived quickly. Wasn't sure what to do as the seller took 3 working days before they posted. I class quick if it arrives in 5 days, earlier very quickly. One seller did message me saying they had a problem* and would be late posting, but I did still say it arrived when Ebay said it should.
