I know the invoices come in on the 15th. Its the 29th today. How long without having money in accounts to pay does ebay restrict seller privaleges? I can get the money easy in a few days. Whats ebays procedure with non payment due to no cash? Thanks!
Ebay can suspend an account for non-payment of seller fees. I couldn't find any information on a grace period or info on how soon a suspension is applied after failure to pay, but I do know that a seller needs to make it absolutely a top priority to pay those fees on time. On eBay's Help pages they name three examples most likely to cause holds. restrictions or suspensions on an account, and not paying their fees is reason #1. (The other two are seriously violating rules or policies, and failure to reimburse eBay for refunding the buyer on the seller's behalf.) So if you can easily get the funds in a few days, then by all means do so before eBay sends the monthly invoice. And also importantly, a zero balance can turn red if you should have a return and need to refund.
Things happen in life, I know, that can create a negative cash flow. But if at all possible, leave a cushion of ready funds to cover yourself in case of an unforeseen problem with a transaction. One last point: Ebay keeps track of seller violations, and they will review them if there is a potential problem with an account. Best not to have any red flags there and another incentive to remit their fees on time. Good luck to you, and i hope this gets resolved quickly to your benefit.
