How long does a buyer have to pay?

I am new to Bonanza and am trying to educate myself about selling on here. I haven’t been able to find out how long a buyer has to pay and what if they do not pay in the allotted time?

Payment should be at time purchase…there is no delay.

However, if you have OBO set up, and the buyer makes an OBO and if you accept then the amount of time you allow for completion (payment) is up to you.

Some set it for anywhere from 3-7 days..if not completed in 7 days a link will appear on the invoice for you to mark as unpaid and item(s) return to booth. But as I said..bonanza leaves it up to you as to how long you will wait to complete an accepted OBO

I might add what ccmom stated that you may want to state in your description that you have X days to pay upon purchase. I personally use 7 days here to allow if they are going to MAIL a payment if not thru an electronic payment system.. State NO PERSONAL CHECKS.

If they haven’t paid within 3 days, I’d cancel the order. It really should be pay at the time the sell is made.
