The new trend? Nonpay ebay bidders?

[Ric]

I havn't sold on ebay in a good year, and I started up again in the last month.

Fuckin... At least 4 items I sold are non payers. That really pisses me off. You get all excited you sold something, and they never pay.

Heck, i've been trying to sell my 5spd sc300 driveshaft for 2 months, it sold twice on ebay, never got paid either times. How annoying. The guy even called me saying he was going to pay the 2nd time, and never did.

sorry, I'll pay next week.

Same thing happened to me. After taking a break from ebay for a while, now it just seems to be crawling with losers. I only got 2 deadbeats in a row and that pissed me off pretty good, but four?! I know you can make it a private auction where people need your permission to bid (so you can check feedback etc.) but that just seems like a PITA. I guess some people just get a rush out of "pretending" to buy stuff.:icon_conf

yeah, all my auctions now are just buy it now with instant payment required. That should fix it
