What to do?? Buyer is 10 days past the pmt. due date clearly stated in the listing and again on my invoice. I know that's not the end of the world but we'll be leaving in a week on vacation. I've contacted the buyer 2 times. Once after 5 days past and again after 9 days past. No response. I see that he is fairly new and has been buying a lot of stuff. Has 100% FB.

I would almost rather forget the sale than to get into opening a case or whatever they call it. Since we'll be gone, if this guy does decide to pay after next week and I don't get the thing shipped on time, I'll end up with the dreaded neg and bad star ratings.

Do I have any options here?? thanks in advance for any suggestions.

Will you have access to WiFi or a computer where you are going? Is the item small enough to take with you? You could mail it from where you are going to be after they pay. I have lugged many a 'widget' with me on impromptu vacations. Once I even mailed an item without being paid, don't advise that, they stiffed me.

First, go to my eBay and do the following:

My eBay > Preferences > Unpaid Item Assistant > Show > Let eBay open and close unpaid item cases for you automatically > select YES

Cases open 4 days after item is sold.

As to your current situation - start an unpaid item case.
