Changing handling time when there is a not yet accepted counter offer

We are leaving for a few days, back on Thursday. A few hours ago I had an offer on an item and I made a counter offer that has not been accepted as yet.  I just changed all my listings to 5 business days handling. Anyone know if that one item is "frozen" at one day handling since there is an open negotiation, or because my counter has not been accepted at this point, do the handling terms at acceptance apply?  It is a small item that I can box and take with me, but would rather not be bothered with it if I don't have to.

Offers are legally binding, so I would think that your counter would still be for the one day handling.
Since you have no idea if or when they will accept or pay, and it's small I would just take it with me.

Everyone has options. Just be sure the best option is right for you.

Agree with love 

would think with eBay the 1 day handling might stick & why risk it . 

If it's small I would take it , better safe then sorry with late shipping . 

 

Heh have a blast , pack lots of shirts for the hubby 🙀

 

 

Sorry I couldn't resist 😺

Is it the Marion fork? That's still showing "Fast N Free" shipping rather than 5-day handing time.  I think that a BO listing with an active offer or counteroffer is like an auction that had received a bid -- there are strict limits on what you can change.

@partial*eclipse  Yes, it was the fork and it has been paid for and I requested aUSPS pickup from my usual spot behind a planter under the mail box on Monday. Looks like I'll get my 10% TRS one day handling discount on it too!

@labs118  Just freaked three cats out by snorting and laughing! He will never live down having to wear his pajama top out for dinner under his sport jacket!
