technically ebays rules state that the buyer has 5 days to pay. that's the reason you can't open a non paying bidder claim until the 5th day.
while you may "require" the buyer to pay within 24 hours, ebay says they have up until 5 days to pay you.
as a seller ideally i prefer a prompt immediate payment, but if a buyer is considerate enough to contact me prior to bidding and tells me that they'll send the payment a few days after the auction ends and they stick to their word then i could deal with that although the majority of my auctions are buy it now immediate payment required.

This is exaclty how I'd approach this situation. $70 to ship a handful of shirts!? Damn that. I just dont understand why the buyer wasnt able/willing to work with you. You won 7 of his items.Originally Posted by Rex Ryan

hell no.
if i were you, i would've refused to pay for them unless he adjusted the shipping to something more reasonable. it don't cost $70 to ship 7 shirts and that seller knew that. if he refused to reason with you then that's his time wasted having to relist 7 items. on top of that from a business perspective if someones willing to purchase 7 items im selling in a single transaction it's common sense to try and be somewhat accomadating to them because from a time aspect he's getting rid of 7 items in 1 shot, making 1 trip to the post office to ship those 7 items and moving them quicker then moving them 1 by 1.
i would've inboxed him telling him that if he doesn't want to provide a more reasonable shipping price that he can relist all 7 shirts again as i would be taking my business elsewhere and that a nasty negative feedback would be left that could affect and take potential future customers away from him.
all that said it would be better to inbox the seller prior to bidding and asking if they combine shipping. if they refuse to give a deal on shipping if i buy a significant amount of items then i'll take my business elsewhere
on top of that if they don't want to combine shipping then i would request that they ship each item seperately as im not going to be a free come up for them. if they refuse to ship them seperately and when i get the items and i see that shipping only cost them around $20 and they charged me $70 then im contacting ebay and letting them handle it and i know they tend to be very buyer friendly especially when one is paying with a credit card.

Ghost bidding is like my biggest pet peeve. If I suspect a seller doing that then I'll stop buying from that seller and probably report it to Ebay.
As for the shipping rate, I have the same view as ThunderChunk. I'll ask beforehand if they combine shipping, and if they don't then I probably won't bid. The shipping inflation is whatever, I just bid accordingly.
As for stupid things ebayers say, I won some shoes and I had a seller ask me if I would do the transaction through paypal, and I asked him if he still had to pay the fees anyway since the auction was over and he said "no, I can just file an 'item not paid' claim, but it won't effect you though." I said no thanks and paid through ebay...
you think it's ok to make a deal and then ask to change everything afterwards?Originally Posted by dabossofbosses
Thunderchunk- you can't really think its ok for him to charge me $70.00 for 7 t shirts he had it in a medium flat rate box that's just ripping you off and being a ****.. I guess birds of a feather flock together.

you agreed to those terms by winning those auctions.
would have taken you 30 seconds to send him a message and ask beforehand
this is what I'm talking about, dudes asking to change the terms of a deal AFTER agreeing.
and ebay can remove those negative feedbacks.Originally Posted by Zyzz

im sorry but it doesnt even cost $10 to ship one shirt and let alone to have the audacity to try and charge $70 shipping for 7 shirts. i would have just left 7 negative feedbacks and moved on.

It just means you don't read what you bid on, because it said $10 shipping and said he didnt combine.
you can do as you please, it just means you don't know how to complete a transaction like an adult.

I highly doubt eBay would remove the negative feedback after they hear the whole story tho. eBay is very strict about shipping prices and sellers overcharging. If the seller charges $70 for shipping and the seller proceeds to send the stuff in a flat rate box with a $15 postage stamp it's a problem. The seller combined all 7 items into 1 box but charged shipping 7 separate times. The only way he could get away with charging someone for shipping 7 times is if he shipped each item seperately. eBay would take exception to the sellers practice in that situation and a claim opened with PayPal would result in a significant shipping refund

if you state your shipping policy
and the buyer leaves a neg because you wouldnt change it... ebay would remove it
they aren't the moral police.
I see what your saying but each auction won is a seperate transaction. If their charging full price shipping for each individual item eBay would expect them to ship each item individually if they charge full price for it. I've seen situations like that happen on there in the past. I rather just ask before bidding to avoid problems on both sides but eBay has taken exception to situations like that in the past
