All you Ebay'rs, how long should I wait 'til the seller answers my e-mail and/or I receive the item I've won?

Question

I don't want to be unreasonable but this was my first ebay transaction and I don't know how many days I should wait until the seller contacts me. Please advise. Thanks!

Answer 1

Be patient. The seller may not look at their email for a day or two. You'll be contacted shortly. They want the sale, so they will contact you!

Answer 2

When I've bought items on ebay, I've usually gotten a message from the seller within minutes to hours after the sale period ends. If it's been a day or two and you haven't heard from them, I'd email them.
