eBay

Hi, I'm trying to list an item, regular 7-day auction format, & I keep getting an error message saying that I omitted "Immediate Payment". I don't know what that refers to & I can't find that wording anywhere on the listing form. What am I doing wrong??

I just listed a buy now item and the check box and text for require immediate payment was missing. Likely causing your issue because its defaulting to require immediate payment with no way to currently change it.

Thank you for your information. Any idea what I can do about it? I spent forever on the phone with an Ebay agent who wasn't able to help me. I don't know where else to turn.

I don't have shipping policies myself but are you using a shipping policy referencing Immediate Payment in an auction that does not offer a BuyItNow price?
