pikoOffer Buying
Is there any way that you can accumulate a number of offers off the same site or seller.
without having to offer and pay for each item seperately.
Such as putting them in a cart type of situation.
Or do I have to buy and pay for each one individually

hammerGenerally if you make an offer it's for that item only - especially now as ebay appear to take the money once the offer is accepted. Best bet is to contact the seller to see if they can do you a deal.

Contacting sellers for that sort of discussion is quite difficult due to the way eBay monitor their messaging system.
Also, the immediate payment thing is down to another recent(ish) change that eBay have made. A bit like the availability of the global shipping system, sellers now have to remember to turn off the immediate payment option when they create listings. It is set to 'On' by default.

pikoYes the seller sells reproduction stamps in Australia and dose not combine shipping at AU$5 shipping no combining .
I would think it was a better money maker than selling reproduction stamps

Bassam Abdul-BakiContact them.
I had one seller with multiple items that I wanted and no S&H combining. He didn't realize that or didn't know how and took down the items I wanted and re-added them all in one sale for me. I've actually had it done more than once. Got turned down more than once as well.
Never hurts to ask.

However, It IS possible. You're not asking them to take off ebay just enabling you both to win.
