If I bought something on ebay,how long is the shipping going to take?

Question

I bought a cell phone yesterday,

Does anyone know how long I have to wait.

Answer 1

It will depend on how far the item has to be shipped and the shipping method that the seller uses. If it get shipped by Fedex or UPS contact the seller and ask for a tracking number.

Answer 2

Depends how much you paid for shipping and how it will be delivered - media mail (can take 3 weeks but unlikely this method), 1st class can take up to 5 business days, Fed Ex can be next day, UPS also in a day or two.

It also depends on when the seller ships it! Some sellers lag and it takes them a week to go to the post office. Others do it as soon as they receive the payment. If you paid through PayPal and they send it through USPS, you will usually get a tracking notification to look up the tracking on the usps website.

Best thing to do is email the seller and ask! Especially if it is sent via a method that requires a signature upon arrival and you want to be home for it.

Answer 3

Well it depends on your payment method that you used, item location and also what type of shipping was used. If you sent a check or money order it may take 2 weeks. If pay-pal was used you should have it by next weekend or the beginning of the 4th week. If usps (regular mail) was used it may take a week and a half. If ups or fedex was being used you will have the phone possibly the middle the weekend but it depends on the item location.

But remember that sellers ship packages on certain days of the week. Also what type of mailing is used such as 1st class or 2nd class. But the best way to find out what he/she will send and when you will expect it is by contacting them and get a tracking number.

Answer 4

The seller should have told you how long....It's usually on the invoice that ebay sends you after you won the item. Contact the seller and ask them. But they probably won't ship it until monday, because it's the weekend.

Answer 5

it depends on how far the distance is between you and the location the person is mailing from. And it depends on WHEN the person actually puts it in the mail.  

Answer 6

You should contact your seller about that. All ebay sellers ship at different times. Also take note of how much you paid for shipping. Ask him or her hows they are shipping your phone and by which carrier.
