Open negotiation question

I accepted an offer 6/24/2013. Today it is showing up on My Bonanza with the message at the [URL removed] “One offer pending acceptance”.

When I click it, it goes to the order page and on that page it [URL removed] “Current [URL removed] Approved, awaiting checkout”

Is this a glitch?

No this means that the buyer did not come back and finish checkout (did not complete the purchase)

Send them a message and ask if they are still interested in purchasing and ask them to complete checkout…you can also ask them to check their email (or spam folder in email) for the offer acceptance which has a link to come back and complete checkout.

Give them a link to the item or transaction..

From now on, always send a message when accepting an offer telling the [URL removed]

Your Offer has been accepted. Please return to bonanza by way of link in email to complete the transaction. Items will ship once the transaction has been completed.

or something like that

If you do not hear from the buyer..you can ask support to resend the offer acceptance.

In 7 days the link to mark it “Unpaid” will appear and the item will be relisted and the transaction cancelled.

Always follow up on OBOs….especially with new buyers to bonanza

This person chose money order so are you saying that until I receive it, and hit the “paid” button it will continue to say this?

I always send a message when accepting an offer.

Yes, it remain as such until you mark it paid…or unpaid. Technically, the item is not paid for yet, so the transaction is not complete yet. I get MO all the time…just mark when you cash the MO
