OMG!!!: EBay non responsive buyer: Not AGAIN!!!

[RSV_Ecosse]

Sold a set of alloys to a fella on eBay a few weeks ago, he was the winning bidder, but didnt answer any emails from me, totally ignored me. Went through the dispute procedure and got my listing costs back and silly matey boy-non-payer was dumped off eBay.

4 days ago, I sold an Archos mini DVD player on eBay and explicitly stated in the listing that the winning bidder MUST contact me within 3 days of the auction ending.

4 days have passed and despite a few emails from myself, he has not bothered his backside to contact me.

I cant believe this is possibly about to happen again. Does it really take that much effort to send a quick email to a prospective seller when you have won an auction???!!!!!.

****** annoyed!!!!.

Ebay is really hopeless now ... hardly worth the time of listing or bidding ... Bloomin annoying it is, but like all good things has to come to an end

I sold a printer just under 2 weeks ago and still have not been paid for it I have had no comms at all from this buyer and iam not happy. Ebay really should do more.

It's one of those things, you only hear about the horror stories for every sale which falls through for what ever reason there are probably 100's of straight forward transactions. I sell around 20 items a week and over the last year i've only had one non-payer, so not too bad really.

I saw another auction site advertised on Cable the other week looked good although no where near as busy as flea bay.

Cant think of the address now though

i always buy with paypal for the extra protection, but iv won a few auctions & when the item has arrived it has been diffrent/damaged, all paypal do is tell u 2 return it (out of yr own pocket) and u will get a % returned, bit sh*t considering i was not at fault. so i just leave it as if i leave negative feedback i would get it returened 2 me even though i did everythink 100%, its a joke

sold many items and never had a problem, just the odd late payment but never non payment. Must be lucky.

set the bidding to pay pal members only that cuts out 90% of the idiots
