when is payment made and how . Do they charge my card on file when they are ready for payment ? I just do not see anywhere on the site to give me an option to actually make the payment .
Thanks,
Joe

When you bid, you told them which card to use from the ones on file. They will bill that card within 3 days of close of sale for the items you won. As soon as payment & any other paperwork clears, you will get the paid in full invoice.

The only way to change it is when you are making a bid or by calling them.

Once you have put your card on file with GL there is no option. If you are the high bidder your card will be charged that evening. No time for "buyers remorse" to develop without having to pay a penalty.

what had me worried was the statement " payment must be made within 3 days " as if I needed to do something . At the time of bidding I did enter the card I wanted to use . I have not seen the charge on my card yet . They told me to give it until midnight tonight to show up . No buyers remorse here !!! I am happy with what I got . I have the patience to wait until the lowboy shows up with my trucks . I have plenty of other toys to play with in the meantime .

3day? More like charge your card in 3minutes from the end of the sale, they love taking your money but take forever when they have to give it back!

You can contact the customer service folks and change your account so that your credit/debit card is never charged automatically.

I use a debit card and my bank freaks out if someone tries to charge $3,500 or more and they don't have the card to swipe and the bank doesn't know the charge is coming. The bank originally had a $2,500 limit and raised it for me. If I let the bank know a larger charge is coming they will honor it but their databse is set up to hold that window open for only a few days.

Now, after I win something and get the first "official" invoice, which sometimes takes a day or two, I can decide whether to send a cashiers check or call the bank and have GL use the card.

Has anyone use Paypal to pay for an auction? If so could you fill me in on how it went down? Will I get the chance to choose which card or bank account that is affiliated with my paypal to use? I have several different cards saved to my paypal.

Im worried because I wanna put the money on a certain card. If it trys to pull from my bank account im going to overdraft.

I've had that same question. Also, how would you pay with two different accounts if you were paying with paypal? I'm going to try the online chat today and get some answers..but dont hold your breath.

FT, I did the online chat. All she told me was they will submit the request for payment to paypal. Beyond that she didn't know how it works. I guess I will be the Guinea pig, and report back my findings.

when you get into your paypal account to pay GL you have the option to select or change payment method . At that point you can change from your bank account on file or a credit card . Paypal usually defaults to the bank account on file , so to use a credit card you will have to use the change payment option .
Still waiting on my first EUC to clear also .

Yeah, thats standard paypal. I just wish it was possible to split payment into two different accounts through paypal is all.

From Fridays auction.
My card has not had the GL payment posted yet.
but my available credit limit has dropped by the amount of the bill.
Wondering if this is something new as it has been just over a year since the last time.
