I had several auctions go off Sunday night. Had a very good sell through. Every thing went well, sent out emails on Monday morning. Have heard from all but one & my emails (2) have bounced because mail box is full. I am not going try to phone the buyer over a $5.95 object. If I can't get through tomorrow, I'll write him off. Anybody else ever have this problem?

I have had this happen many times and just wait for the buyers to contact me..they can always go through eBay checkout to find my address. Eventually we get in touch.

A full mailbox is bad email information to ebay since you can not contact them. You can turn in the bidder for a bad email address and ebay will suspend them and then the buyer can try to correct the info with ebay and get re-instated. Usually a full mailbox is an abandoned one.

Not always. They might just be o a short vacation OR when I got home tonight I had 11 emails from eBay and their research department. Talk about a full mailbox.

Most mailboxes take 500 emails to fill. Almost always they are abandoned, especially Yahoo and Hotmail addresses.

Libra; I sometimes have as many as 30 overnight.

sanmar, I would wait a couple of more days and see if they contact you.

as Libra said, they may be away from their computer and don't realize the mail box is full.

As usual, Auctionloser doesn't have a clue. I often get large e-mails which reduces the amount of mail you are allowed to receive. It has happened to me several times in which I checked my e-mails in the morning and has over 90% of my space available only to find that afternoon, my e-mail box was over limits because of large e-mails sent. A little patience is much better to see if you can get another e-mail to go through the next day or two.
