I have no idea what i am doing on ebay, im not sure its for me !

I listed some sofas. Bidding ended on saturday night. Someone "won" them (there was only one bid) but i havent heard from him despite emailing.

Its now monday night, the listing said these must be collected urgently as we are moving.

He has only been a member for 2 weeks.

What do i do now? Just relist them?

this seems a lot of hassle, not sure ebay is for me.

    Sofas are a PITA to sell on ebay. We had exactly the same issue, except the guy claimed he was coming to get them and never turned up. We ended up dumping them.

    I think you're supposed to give a week or so to allow them time, but given that you've stated it's urgent due to moving house, I'd relist and open a dispute in ebay, so you don't get charged any fees.

    How are you, anyway? Not seen you around for ages (I've not really been here much)

    Did you mention that payment had to be made within a certain time frame? I've made the mistake of not doing so before and I couldn't relist for 30days or something like that due to needing to give the buyer time. It's so frustrating!

    I'd email the buyer one last time with a timeframe as to when you want payment and collection. If you haven't heard back you might have to open a dispute before you can relist. I can't exactly remember the protocol. Ebay is such a PITA.

    Sorry I'm not much help.
