Just sold a vehicle on ebay. How long to wait for comms from buyer re pick up and payment? Only 12 hrs so far so not worried (?) but i know if it'd been me. i'd have been on it straight away.

Was hoping it would be picked up this weekend as it gets really difficult for me after that, obviously payment before release and sold as seen receipt, anything else i should think about?

12 hours ago would have been quite late last night... they might have had it on a snipe.

If it were me, I probably wouldn't be sending you any messages until I was back from work tonight and sorted myself out.

If you don't get anything this evening, then use the 'Send Invoice' option to give them a polite prod.

If he/she has just spent £thousands on your auction maybe they are waiting for the money to be transferred to paypal so they can pay you?

I wouldn't pay for anything I was collecting via Paypal [or any other method] before I'd seen it

I sold my motor on ebay a few weeks ago and asked for £100 deposit within 24 hours by paypal at the auction's finish - this gives you an idea of whether or not the buyer is serious about completing the sale.

The winner didn't pay the deposit for three days - I phoned him and got endless daft excuses - quickly realised he was full of excrement and sent out 2nd chance offers - but alas, too late. Eventually sold to a chap from here for a good bit less cash, but much less hassle!

yeah contacted him suggesting deposit through paypal then rest by direct transfer.

Assuming that balance won't be paid until they've seen it.
