Re: WTF, eBay promising delivery?
When you list your item, it shows different shipping options, such as Priority Mail, First Class, FedEx Ground, etc. Next to those, it shows how many days it usually takes for each one. Example, look at Priority Mail and next to it, it says (2-4 days). If you click priority mail as your method of shipping with a 2 day handling time, it automatically adds the two (2+4) and shows estimated delivery is 6 days. It puts in whatever date is 6 days....so if the auction ended today, it would say they will receive their item between the 10th and 12th. I generally just put "standard shipping" as my method and 2 day handling time. I will ship out same day or next day first class or priority. This gives allowance for any USPS screw ups, and I will still be within the estimated delivery dates, so no complaints.
