    Give a seller more time to ship to me

    I purchased an item and I want to give the seller more time to ship to me. How do I do that?

    Can't do it. Ebay requires the seller to ship within the handling time they list the item.

    Nope, buyers have no control over that.  Furthermore, sellers need to ship within the stated handling time in their listings.  Even if both parties agree to  a delayed shipping time, eBay doesn't and it may affect a sellers metrics

    Buyers cannot extend the seller’s handling time. There’s no button, setting, or option that lets you change the deadline.

     

    It's best to cancel the sale, and have the seller, if they are willing, to relist the item with a longer handling time, or relist the item when you are able to receive it.
