Payment

[twiggs55]

Someone took best offer on a bracelet of mine on Thurs., which I then sent them an invoice for this.

As of yet, I have had no payment or any messages from the person. How long do I wait for payment? Do I send them a message asking if they still want the bracelet?

They have 2 days to pay and after that you can file Item Not Paid case. After that it takes 4 days to close if they do not pay.

You could send another invoice as a reminder and see if that get's them to pay.

thanks, I'll try that. Didn't know if that was acceptable

[coastaltechsolution]

Yes it is acceptable and I have 1 case open right now that should close tomorrow. 

When case closes you will get FVF refunded and be able to relist item.

Do not relist item until eBay closes the case.

You can message if you like, but eBay has already sent them a payment reminder, too. Good luck.

After two days, you wait as long as you want. 

Some here will advise filing an unpaid item dispute after two days.

Personally, I wait three weeks. 

There is no "right" answer.

I sent another invoice and they paid right away, so I'm not sure what happened with my first invoice and eBay's reminder, but all is good. Thanks for the advice
