Need advice about buyer

I sold a Futon Lounge this morning, I live in Melbourne and the item was pickup and COD.


The buyer lives in Northern NSW. When the auction finished he sent me an email saying that he bought the item, lives in Nth. NSW and he comes to Melbourne once every 2 to 3 weeks, will pick it up then and pay for it then.



My thoughts on this is he should have asked first was it alright to do this, but he waited till he bought it.



I just have a funny feeling about this, I sent an email to him asking for an approx date he would pick it up, but he hasnt answered.


OH is anxious to have it removed, what should I do, wait for him to come to Melbourne next or what?
