Organising pick up and shipping

• Pick up

Pick up

• Contact the buyer to let them know some suitable times and days for collection.
• If the items needs to be collected by a certain date, this should be made clear in the listing.
• Trades should be wrapped up within a week – unless you've both agreed otherwise.

The buyer should pick up the item if:

• your listing stated 'pick-up only'
• they selected to pick up the item.

Other shipping methods
