What it sounds like to me:
They tried to pay you through your auctions' Auctionpayment check out, but could not get the form to work. They ask they you please give them a bit more time to try to get it work--they'll try one more time. They are very, very interested in buying your magazines.
Essentially they are begging you not to neg them; they really want the magazines & are not being a deadbeat about it, but they just can't get your check-out form to work.

It is the same thing. Maybe if you give them simple step-by-step instructions they'll be able to do it--sounds like a language problem.
I just checked, and Babelfish does do English to Portuguese translations. I know they're not perfect, but it will probably do the trick for you to get them to understand what they need to do.

When I go to auctionpayment.com, Auction Sniper comes up. Maybe that is what the problem is. Anyone else have that problem. Since I switch servers strange things are happening. I thought it would be easier, boy was I wrong. There is another thread about bid pay starting up again. Send them the link to bidpay. It's tough when there is such a language barrier but babelfish as suggested does translate but not all languages. Good Luck

Yes, I did give them www.auctionpayments.com I put it in all my replies to International buyers, because I don't take Paypal from them. This lady wanted to pay me with a credit card, which I am unable to do. I will try telling her exactly how to to Bidpay and see if that helps. This is her first transaction, which doesn't help any.
