Dear Navaneeth (snrama),
Responses to your queries as given below:
1. In case you feel it will take more time then the default timelines provided by PaisaPay, suggest that you ask for time extension using the time extension feature of PaisaPay. Given that they are your regular customers and the products are not easily available in their town, don’t you think they will be more willing to accommodate any shipment delays? These buyers from very interior places are normally aware of the time it takes for shipment to reach them. Also, we did a check on the number of orders that is received from such areas, we found that a very small percentage account for such orders.
Just to reiterate, you will need to provide Proof of Delivery only in case the buyer raises a refund claim
2. In case you are using the “Shop on Vacation” feature on eBay, you can use “Make your Shop Inventory listings unavailable’ option in case you feel you cannot ship and input the shipping details in the stipulated timelines else use ‘Display a vacation message in your listings’ or ‘Display a vacation message in your Shop’ option.
3. For benefit of all sellers, I just wanted to clarify that in case the Buyer doesn’t confirm Item received in the stipulated timelines, PaisaPay will consider it as Item received. I understand your concern that sellers might find some delay in receiving funds. We had similar concerns, but when we made some quick calculations, we saw that if a seller ships on time (which sellers like you do), it will take you at most 12 - 14 days to receive the payment, which is not very different from today.
Hope this clarifies.
Regards
Vijay
