Pickup items

Im trying to find an acceptable time of waiting for a buyer to pickup an item.  I thought it was on the site. Does anyone have any ideas please?

It is between you and the buyer.

If you want to get rid of the item quickly, set a deadline for collection.

Message the buyer and give them a date by which the item must be collected.

If they don't arrange a collection and show up by the date you set, refund them and relist.

If the buyer hasn't paid you can cancel the sale after 4 days as unpid for a fee credit and buyer will get a non payment strike.

 

If the buyer has paid then you can always message them with a date to collect, so by X date saying you will cancel if not collected by then.Ebay allow 30 days from sale to cancel.

There is no set time, but in general after a collection item has been purchased,   most sellers would wait 7 days for a pick up.

 

If it's nearing that time,  I would suggest sending the buyer a message stating politely,  that if you do not hear from them  within ** days,  you'll  deem the item to be unwanted and will be cancelling the sale. 

 

This will fully  refund them, if they have paid,  refund your seller fees,  and your seller performance will not be affected.

 

You could then relist the item if you wish.

 

Block all non payers,  and troublesome  buyers from returning to your sales:
