5. unfortunately
my experience as a seller is that people who intend to pay are enthusiastic and get in touch within hours, if not minutes. After 7 days, be sure to fill a non-paying bidder report and go through the steps so you won't have to pay the final value fee on items that are not paid for.

I would go ahead and send a polite notice to each of the two buyers in case they didn't get the first one. Emails do get lost a lot more frequently than conventional mail so there is still hope they're not yet aware of how to get in touch with you. Also, sometimes people who pay by check/money order do not stop and think to email the seller that money is on the way. In your email, be sure to mention that it's a big help in planning if people mailing their payment send their shipping address upfront so you can get their package ready. That usually sparks them to let me know the check is in the mail.
