How fast is the dilivery of something on ebay?

Question

im about to purchase something on ebay and i live in the u.s.a in the state california and just would love to know how fast is the dilivery!

Answer 1

I would estimate about a week based on my experiences, but the actual speed will be detrmined by4 factors.

A.) How fast you pay. Most sellers won't send until after you pay.

B.) How quickly the seller ships. Most ship within a couple of days, but some sellers only ship once a week, and occassionally a seller will be on vaction or out of town on business and take longer to ship.

C.) The distanced shipped. I have had items shipped from as far away as Hong Kong to the US

D.) The shipping method used. First class mail, over night mail, UPS... there are many different methods and this will affect delivery speed.

I have bought things off of eBay for 7 years. The avearge seems to be about a week.
