Buyers have 4 days to pay before you even think of opening a dispute and most good sellers allow 7 days. Do NOT offer for 2nd chance until you have resolved first sale or you may end up with 2 buyers and get negative feedback.
So AMZ gives the buyer a week or 2 to make payment. I fell foul of this the first time when it was pending for a week and just sold my last item, The buyer then paid for the goods and as I had sold it didn't have it in stock so had to refund the buyer. # 10 (permalink). 04-01-2012, 04:45 AM.
