Jackie in AR Posted March 17, 2008 Share Posted March 17, 2008 for how long? Emails? Receipts? Do you keep a list of transactions (& how detailed)? How long do you wait after purchasing something to contact the buyer if nothing has been received? E-mails I keep until I'm sure they've received the curriculum, plus about two or three more weeks in case they decide to contact me about something. (This has never happened, but I'm a little anal that way. :D) I always purchase Delivery Confirmation, so I know that they've received the item(s). My Paypal account is my list of transactions. Long ago, I tried to keep a manual list but that got too time consuming. If I've paid and haven't received my order in two weeks, I usually send a friendly inquiry. Nothing has ever taken much longer than two weeks, even Media Mail. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beth in Central TX Posted March 17, 2008 Share Posted March 17, 2008 I don't keep any documentation. I do keep the e-mails in my in-box while the transaction is still outstanding, but once I've either received what I bought or mailed what I sold, I delete everything and move on.

Once I've mailed something I'm selling, or received what I purchased, I delete emails. Michelle T Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TCoppock Posted March 18, 2008 Share Posted March 18, 2008 I have never sold on the board but I have bought a number of things from it. I usually keep all emails until I recieve my purchase. I have been lucky. Only one of my transactions has ended in me being disappointed in my purchase. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
readwithem Posted March 18, 2008 Share Posted March 18, 2008 for how long? Emails? Receipts? Do you keep a list of transactions (& how detailed)? How long do you wait after purchasing something to contact the buyer if nothing has been received? I keep all emails until I hear from the buyer the item was received in satisfactory condition. I try to remember to state in either my listing or the email to the buyer that payment is to be received within 10 days. Then I will pop them an email to ask about payment and if I haven't heard from them in 48 hours or so I will go to the next person in line. When I'm in selling mode, I want it out of my house ASAP :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
