Is it possible to automatically send an invoice immediatately following the auction, with all shipping & payment info included?
I don't want to send them to checkout. I find that most people don't like going through checkout - they just want to know what they owe, and where to send payment.

Hey there,
Well, it is and it isn't. If you do fixed shipping it is possible to show the shipping and final bid brice, but not the total of the two. If you use Calculated shipping, it is not possible at all. Here is what a sample email would look like:
"Hello %%Winner%%,
Congratulations! You are the winning bidder on %%Site%% item #%%AuctionId%%, "%%Title%%". I look forward to promptly shipping your item.
In order to total the Amount please add %%Shipping1%% to the Closing price of %%ClosePrice%%"
The Percent signs refer to things that will change dynamically based on market data. However, as you can see, there is no way to dynamically total the amount including shipping within the winning bidder notification. You can get to the winning bidder notification messages, by clicking "My Account > Post Sale Mgt options"
Please let me know if you have any other questions.
