Can I wait 2 weeks to pay for an ebay item? - HSUR2112 - 04-08-2014 08:25 PM
I just bought two items from a seller on ebay for 'buy it now' and was wondering if I can wait 2 weeks to finish the purchase?
I usually buy my items from ebay on a Friday (commit to buy), and pay for them the following Friday, and yes I know there are no problems there because buyers have 7 days to finish payment but I was wondering if it will cause anything more then a message from the seller if I wait 2 weeks to pay. Will they get pi$$ed and cancel the transaction? or is it down to them and how they take it? Are they even able to leave the purchase open for that long?

you should email the seller and ask them about it. if u dont pay within a week and dont tell them they might report u... so i would ask them

With no communication a seller can decide to open an unpaid item dispute against you in only a couple of days. Some like us have our setting to do it automatically. I strongly suggest you contact them as quickly as possible.
My employees have instructions that if a buyer asks for extra time it's granted. If they hear nothing they let the system take over.

Absolutely not! Buyers do not have 7 days to finish the purchase. The seller can open an unpaid item case against you in TWO -- count 'em -- TWO DAYS and close it in four more for a total of six days. In fact, eBay will do this automatically so the seller doesn't have to waste one second of time with losers like you.
Why the H do you think sellers are on eBay?
The great news is that after this stunt, you'll have 2 unpaid item strikes against you. Every seller on eBay will be able to block you for a full year. So no one will have to put up with any more of your idiotic BS for quite awhile.
