Help on ebay!!?

Question

if you buy something on ebay and send the payment a week ago, [money order] do they give you a message when they recieve the payment?

Answer 1

people usually recieve the payment and then send you the item without contacting you.

If you are worried, email the seller.  What was his/her feedback like ?

Answer 2

That would be the polite thing to do, but there's no rule saying that they have to.

Why not just e-mail them and ask if they've received your payment and when they will be shipping your item?
