    Anyway, She did not answer any requests for payment even though the listing said I required immediate payment.

    Anyway, She did not answer any requests for payment even though the listing said I required immediate payment. All in all it took 12 days for payment with no appology or reason given. That was the main point for the neutral. She did pay eventually so no need to give a negative.


    You can only insist on Immediate Payment for BIN or shop items, and it has to be set as a selling preference. Typing it into the description is as good as asking Nigerians not to bid when Buyer Preferences are not set up!!

    Should help you out going forward.

    After 7 days is fine as you can start a dispute then anyway, but asking for immediate payment?!? It's like sellers who say payment must be received within 3 days or else....

    tbh, I think sellers that beg for feedback should get a neg for being annoying spammers.

    OP I thanked you for your post by mistake-It's like a red rag to a bull to harrass your buyers. If I bought something from you and you endlessly e.mailed me I'd be tempted to leave you a negative as well. I mean, from your post it sounds like you have some compulsive disorder in that you have to constantly be reassured that the buyer has received the item. Like Soolin said, If you're that bothered send everything trackable so you can check without harrassing buyers.

    lol... Glad I'm not the only one who does that. I even thanked a guy once who I was having an argument with. :rotfl:
    There's a storm coming, Mr Johnson. You and your friends better batten down the hatches, because when it hits, you're all gonna wonder how you ever thought you could live so large and leave so little for the rest of us.

    I'm with the others, also imagine if you dont go online often, go on ebay to buy something and then have no reason to log on again for a while. When you do you get a flood of emails asking if you got the item. Not everyone is like us MSE's going online daily for bargains, especially if they have no internet at home.

    I have an item that a buyer had not received, I offered a refund if it was not received by the middle of following week, never heard a thing, I sent one message out of courtesy that the refund offer still stands as i did not want to get a neg for INR, that was probably 5 or 6 weeks ago, it was a baby item so I am assuming that it has been received but buyer is probably too busy with a newborn to care about letting me know, and if not if she forgot about it she will know the refund offer is still there when she checks her messages. Cant do much else or she'll think I'm a stalker ;)
