I bought an 1807 DBH in Pcgs F-15 off e-bay Wed. night from a seller that I have not done business with before,but has 341 total feedback and 99.7% positive feedback.It was a BIN listing which required an instant pay-pal payment which I did.So far I haven't had any contact from the seller.No ackknowledgement at all.I e-mailed them this morning to see if they realized that the listing had ended.Should I be worried at all yet?

Relax
<< <i>dont worry, be happy.........
But keep us informed.
That seller should have delivered it to you no later than 9am Thursday morning.
Leave him a neg immediately, and file a Paypal complaint to get your money back. Don't wait another minute.
Sellers that don't sit at their computers 24/7/365 and don't overnight express every thing they sell, shouldn't be allowed on Ebay.
Now seriously, give the guy a little slack.

OK,cut me some slack.I didn't say anything about negging the guy.I have not ever negged anyone or gotten one in over 7 years of buying and selling on e-bay.I know when I'm selling I usually check on my auctions daily and respond asap to let the winner know that I appreciate their business and that I'll get the item out within a day or two.I wasn't worried yet.Just wondering how long does it take before a person should get concerned.This was one of my more expensive coin purchases lately.Since the original post I have been contacted by the seller who says the item was shipped Thur. morning. The coin was the topic of another thread and I will update it with better pictures when the coin arrives.
If it is an expensive item and I don't hear anything after 3 or 4 days, I send him another email requesting the information. Generally I get a response to this email or the item shows up. So far, I have had a 100% delivery rate.
<< <i>Many sellers simply mail the coin upon receipt of payment without any contact. I would suspect that is the case with your seller too. >>
I agree.

After a week with no response, you may chew your fingernails a little bit.
At two weeks, you are permitted to get nervous and pace the floor.
At three weeks, then you can freak out.
Some sellers just ship without communication. I myself do not usually email people upon shipping, but I do leave feedback when they pay so they know I received payment.

Dave,
I am a pretty uptight guy myself. I purchased a coin on Monday with BIN and I have not heard from the guy. But I won't start sending out smoke signals to him for another few days. Even then it will be a "Just checking did you receive my payment" type email.
Don't worry just yet.

<< <i>You really should have started worrying the hour before you entered your final bid….that is the best time to begin world-class worrying. It gives you more time to work up to a psychotic state of enhanced paranoia. As it is, by waiting two entire days to develop mild angst, you’ll barely have time to curl up in a fetal position in the closet, before the postman brings your package.
Maybe Santa will being you a nice new Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM) – II for your very worrisome own.
Give the seller – and yourself – a break: have a cold beer, go on a date with a woman.....get away from the stupid computer. >>
