    4 days later and not shipped
                     

    How can I cancel my order. The seller says tomorrow they would ship which is 4 days after my purchase. It's just rude to do business like this. What can I do?

    Buyers cannot cancel their orders.

    It is NOT rude for the seller to ship within a few days. The seller is allowed to ship within their handling time which can be up to 40 days. It is rude to expect otherwise.


    Most Ebay sellers have handling time of 4 BUSINESS days.


    The only thing that matters is that you receive the item by/on the estimated date of delivery as shown in the order details in your Purchase History. What is the estimated date of delivery?


    Your feedback left for sellers shows that you unjustly expect sellers to ship immediately when all the seller needs to do is have the item arrive on time. You see that date on the listing page when you buy the item and in the order details after you have made the purchase.

    @urbanwaresandsupply Sellers can have handling times of 0 to 40 days. 

    They just have to make sure that the item arrives by the last estimated delivery date stated on the listing. Never expect an item sooner than the last estimated delivery date.



    Sorry your purchase didn't go smoothly. Here's how to get your money back.


    Look for the last estimated delivery date in your purchase history. You can file a refund request when the item is at least a day late. 

    You have 30 days from the last estimated delivery date to file a refund request on eBay. 


    Select your item on this page to start a refund request:

    https://www.ebay.com/help/buying/returns-refunds/get-help-item-hasnt-arrived?id=4042&st=


    4 business days after you file the refund request ask eBay to step in and help if the seller has not refunded you.

    https://www.ebay.com/help/buying/returns-refunds/ask-ebay-to-step-in?id=4701


    If it is more than 30 days past the last estimated delivery date then you can file a refund request on PayPal up to 180 days from the date of purchase. OR if you didn't use PayPal at checkout contact your bank or credit card to report that you didn't receive the item.
