When you purchase an item that's available for collection, you'll receive information on the item's location at checkout. If you need to know more before purchasing, select Contact seller on the listing.
How to arrange a local collection
After completing your purchase, you’ll receive an order confirmation email with a collection code (a QR code and 6 digit code) to show the seller when you meet. You can also access your collection code on the order details or via Contact Seller on the eBay app.
The seller will scan or enter the code to confirm collection and ensure a safe and protected transaction.
Once you’ve collected the item, you can also confirm this directly in the order details.

Items collected in person are still covered by eBay Money Back Guarantee as long as you use an online payment method.
