I know alot of you guys use ebay.. I have never used it before but 3 weeks ago I brought a wheel cahir on ebay, the seller had a good rating.
I sent her a cheque and she has obviously recievd it as it has come out of my account nearly a week ago.. How long does it normally take to sent the product as Im sure it shouldnt take over a week after payment.. I have emailed her today to see what the delay is.. I did ask her to contact to me to make sure I was in the day he arranged for delivery..

I've only bought books and small stuff that is obviously going to be easier for the seller to post and usually things arrive quickly... if they don't I leave killer feedback

With something large and bulky though like the chair, the seller might need additional time to sort out the packaging and posting aspects.

They would also probably have waited a few days for the cheque to clear in their bank.

I hope you get a quick response from the seller.

Hi, it is normal for it to be over a week late. Take into account the weekend does not count really. Also with larger items if the seller is posting item they may have problems getting a large enough box etc, and if they are taking the item to the posting office that takes time. If a courier service is picking up the item that also takes time. Don't worry to much, if they have good feedback and have been a seller for some time your more than likely get your item. Remember also that xmas is getting closer and the sorting offices are very busy. From sunseasand.

Remember it is also the xmas period. I use ebay a lot, and have sold quite a few large items taht have to be collected by courier... be warned if using parcelforce... ive had very bad experience with them, they can take forever. Im sure it will arrive soon enough, ebay feedback ratings are very important to genuine ebayers, they do not like getting negative feedback.
