I have bought an item, what should I do now?

If the item was purchased by you at Galeria Savaria, we will inform you thereof in your user account and an email. You can find your items purchased on the Purchased items page.

Once the purchase is done through the system of Galeria Savaria, partners can find the necessary details to pay and ship the item on the ”Transaction details” page. In addition to this, when you initiate a transactional conversation, you can share any other relevant information with each other and clarify the details of the shipping and payment of the item purchased.

A transactional conversation is an exchange of messages conducted between the seller and buyer concerning an item purchased. The fact that you are participating in a transactional conversation is clearly indicated to you and your partner. Here you can also provide data that is possible only if the conversation is about an already purchased item.

If you find it necessary, you can ask for further contact details of the partner (e.g. email address, phone number) after the purchase. You can do this on the Purchased items page, by clicking on the More actions drop-down menu. However, we recommend that you discuss further details of the transaction after the purchase through the safe messaging system of Galeria Savaria. Thus you will not only find the transaction-related messages in one place but you can also ask for the assistance of our customer support if you meet any difficulties during the transaction.

A transaction must always be rated on the related surface created by Galeria Savaria. The feedback submitted is public and appears on the profile page of users. This allows users to find out about the trustworthiness of other members of the community and decide who they want to make a deal with. Remind the seller that reviews are important to you as well, and they should not forget to provide their opinion about you in the form of feedback.

Make sure that your transactions end positively, as the high number of neutral and negative reviews or the failed transactions does not only generate uncertainty in the buyers but also the system of Galeria Savaria may limit the status of users on the basis of these ratings.

Feedback is not just about building users’ reputation. Learn more about the reviews.

How can I pay for a purchased item?

On Galeria Savaria sellers can decide how their buyers pay for an item.

The sellers can offer the following payment options for their buyers:

  • wire transfer
  • PayPal
  • cash
  • cash on delivery

We suggest that if you have the opportunity - especially in case of buying from a foreign seller -, try to settle the payment via PayPal, which adds an extra layer of security to your purchase due to its built-in buyer protection system. Learn more about Paypal and its advantages
