Resolved! 2 day handling times don't work well with different time zones

As a seller I want to stop at the post office every OTHER day. Not every day. I select 2 business day handling times for this reason BUT that doesn't necessarily work. I will often be expected to stop by post office EVERY business day. I'll try to ex...

Did the buyer receive my package or not?

Resolved! Handling Time "Business Day" Calculation - Makes No Sense!

Stop Using FedEX and UPS Labels Purchased Through Ebay To Ship Items!
