How many days do you have to pay?
I won several items in the past and I've received messages from Ebay saying that if I don't pay the seller can cancel within a day? Is this correct? I thought it was around 4 or 5 days before they can cancel an item for non payment.

OP2 weeks agoAre you saying the seller can cancel the item in two days and give you an unpaid item strike?

·2 weeks agoYou need to contact your seller immediately if you are concerned about unpaid item strikes. I understand what you did which is won auctions over the past week from the same seller and probably want to combine ship. Is that correct? Ebay requires you to pay so you need to contact your seller to make sure you are on the same page as them.

The seller can cancel the transaction at any time, BUT they have to wait 4 days to cancel for the reason "buyer didn't pay".
The BUYER can request a cancellation of their order within 24 hours of their purchase.

·2 weeks agoYes Ebay does send you the buyer a message to pay your seller. Ebay has been cracking down on non paying bidders.

·2 weeks agoYes the buyer can request to cancel within the first 24 hours (1 day) A seller does not have to agree to it.
