Paying for multiple items

[MPS16]

The bay is set up to where you can pay all the sellers you buy from with just one payment, so it is possible to do.

This only works on Fee Bay because All Seller Must Offer PayPal as a payment option.

That is not a true statement, you have have to offer at least one electronic payment or internet merchant credit card option.
Also if Paypal can have such a simple feature i am sure other payment companies can do it as well.

Payment options for most listings

For most categories, you need to offer at least one electronic payment or Internet merchant credit card option. This provides a fast and secure transaction for you and the buyer. When a buyer clicks the Pay Now button in My eBay, the listing, or email notification, they pay you immediately and the payment is processed through the option you've chosen. You receive an email telling you you've been paid and you can ship the item.

You can also offer payment upon pickup. Payment by personal check, cashier's check, bank-to-bank transfers, or money order isn't allowed for most eBay purchases.

You'll choose your payment options when you list your item.

Here's a comparison of payment options for most listing types. For details on each electronic option, click its name.

This is from the Fee Bay site.

"All sellers on eBay.co.uk must offer to accept PayPal. The limited exceptions to this are detailed in the Restricted section below."

So if I buy from multiple sellers on the.co.uk site I can insist on paying them (in one operation) using PayPal.

These are the limited exceptions.

"Listings in the following categories may offer any of the payment methods above and are not required to offer PayPal as a payment option:

• Cars, Motorcycles, Aircraft, Boats, Caravans, Trailers, Trucks (commercials), Services and Property

In some categories, or for some transactions, PayPal may be the only method permitted. If applicable, this will be advised during the listing flow."

Guess the UK & US sites are different because this is from the US bay site

Just returned to ebid after a long break - gave up with it because buying 10 items, you have to log in to paypal 10 times.. too time consuming. There doesn't seem to be any improvement to this problem.. unless there is a solution very well hidden within this forum but impossible to find.. Any help anyone? Who am I talking to .. eBid support or the general public - not clear how this forum works???
thanks

your post is not clear hence the different answers regarding different sellers or one seller



i had a buyer last week buy 4 items of me i had 4 notifications of 4 sales from ebid and confirmation of 4 payments from ebid and one notification from PP of payment recived so my buyer only logged into PP once

I just had a customer buy two items and because I have a setting for Enable Multiple item Checkout on, It allows the customer to make their payment on a combine purchase order. So this is one capability that eBid offers and it makes it easier for the customer. The seller just needs to activate this option and the customer won't have to make multiple payments.
