Title: Nonpayers on eBay
Post by: Juli on September 23, 2011, 08:21:39 AM

I have been selling some stuff on eBay lately but have been getting people that never pay. I reported one of them last week and they never paid so eBay refunded my seller fee. I then had to relist the item and it actually brought less than the first time I sold it.

I just sold 6 items, and one of the bidder's have 0 feedback. I have a bad feeling this guy is not going to pay. Is there anything I can do about this or do I have to wait out the whole eBay process? I am still waiting on 3 payments, and I find this rather annoying. I wish there was a way to block out nonpaying bidders.

You can block nonpaying bidders.  You have to set it up in your seller account:

And it actually works (from my record auctions at the beginning of the month)

I get them, but WAY less than I ever did on eBay. NOW I can permanently ban the collector, and not just the ID, which does no good, because they simply get another one on eBay.

For three years I have kept my non-pays to under 1%, both by price and by volume. Judging by the huge amounts of re-lists I see on most auction sites, I would guess they have a growing non-paying bidder problem.
