Commit to buy without paying

[dredscot1]

I want to buy a few listings from a buyer that are "buy it now" and a couple other ones I have to bid on that don't end for a day.  I don't want the buy it now ones to be purchased by someone else.  I put the bin ones in my cart and went to request a total but got a message that said they had been discounted and not eligible for combined shipping.  I wrote the seller and was told they do combine shipping and would reimburse the overage.  My problem is how do I commit to buy the "buy it now" items without paying?  Or should I buy them, pay the overage, wait to see if I win the other auctions and then pay for that separately then hope the seller does actually reimburse the shipping charge overage?

The cart is messed up like that & if the seller is running a sale & you add items it won't let you request a total but if they don't have IPR ( Immediate payment required)  on them & your seller agrees then you should be able to just click each one & buy it now  not add to cart & then wait until tomorrow see if you win the auctions & when it is all done send the seller a message to send you an invoice for a combined total.

I have buyers who purchase and I can send an invoice for the combined shipping this is bypassing the difficult cart function .
