Time limits

Why does eBay break my, er, wear me out to pay in less than 72 hours, yet the seller can take weeks to ship my items ?

Sellers set their handling time and that is included in the estimated delivery date for your purchase. You agree to that date when you make the purchase. The clock starts ticking when you pay.

You have 4 days to pay. That's what you agree to when you made the purchase.

Paying is a much simpler process than shipping.
