Want To Pay But No Contact

kezzy100

Early on Friday I won some items from a seller. I got talking to them through asking if they'd put a BIN on one item and they said they had some related items so if I'd give them my email address they'd compile a list and let me know what they had then we could work something out [with them putting an auction up and me doing a BIN to cover ourselves - I hope anyway, I won't do it any other way].

However, that was 12pm Friday and I've sent several 'please let me know how much you want' for the two items that I've won - with combined postage' questions/request for invoice and asked if they got my email address.

I'm starting to get annoyed now, I just want to pay and have them on the way then sort out what else is left over.

Should I pay the full amount with no postage discount (does it sound like that's what they're after? I've had no contact whatsoever since!) or should I wait and keep asking every so often for a combined invoice/other items.

Thanks.

A lot of sellers up the postage so they pay less to ebay and paypal in fees.If this is the case they wont be too happy giving you a discount.If its a powerseller they take ages to reply to emails.

Some ebayers don't work on weekends.

the seller may have gone away for the weekend like i did, they may have set off early friday and got back late on sunday and gone straight to bed (like i did) i know a lot of my mates in the T.A. do ebay and travel miles to get there so would set off early and if they would have been shattered would not have bothered going on there computer and spent the time with there wife and kids maybe you will here something later today.
or i could be wrong and the seller may just be a pratt.
anyway hope it works out for you in the end.

I agree,it is far too early to be worrying about no contact.

There is no automatic right to a discount on postage, so unless the seller specifically told you he would discount you really just need to wait and see whether he offers any.

I was selling heavy items that finished yesterday, one of my buyers asked for a discount so I wrapped her items together and it is actually dearer to combine postage than it is to post each item seperately. Unfortunately I had already said to her that I thought I could get a little off the postage, so am discounting a fraction out of my own pocket on this instance. Never again though...next time I will check before I say a discount will be calculated.
