My biggest Pet Peeve is that vendio sends out the WBN and people DON'T GET IT. I send out another and then I get the question--Will you send me the amount I owe you. Why do I have to go into ebay and send them another Invoice??

They do get it but do not bother to read it. For others its the email filters blocking the notice "thinking" that its spam.
Then others let their inbox pile up till its full and new mail can not get in.It does amaze me how many people never check their mail to make sure it does not all go into the "delete" section.
You are right about one thing that this can drive one crazy as it wastes so much time.

Maybe people DO get the WBN but claim they don't because they don't want to use Vendio check-out!

The pitiful fact is some people are just plain stupid. Some will go through the checkout and them e-mail 50 questions anyway. How much do I send you? What is your address? What is your PayPal ID? Sometimes you just want to quit.
Be kind. Everyone is fighting their own secret battles.

I also hate Vendio checkout (multiple pages to do what one page could do). The last time I tried it just would not work on my Mac. I went to PayPal and paid the seller then he send a flurry of nasty automatic email before he would check to see that I had indeed paid.

My personal experience with ALL checkouts has been very NEGATIVE
AS A SELLER: I used a CHECKOUT SYSTEM for 6months, and a FULL 50% of my bidders totally REFUSED to use it!
AS A BIDDER: I bought sumptin last night with ANDALE checkout -- what a total WASTE OF MY TIME!
I had to fill in all his un-necessary garbage on his ANDALE checkout page & then get re-directed to PAYPAL, where all the INFO is to begin with!
PITA
CHECKOUTS stink...

I wish ebay would send out the invoices automatically, then there would be no issue here...

...probably because shipping sometimes needs to be adjusted: optional insurance, international shipping, and for twonks like me who don't own a scale and can't flat rate all the time.
