They probably were a registered user when they bid, but either Ebay suspended their account or they closed their account during your auctions or shortly after they won them. Either way I would open a case with ebay for non-payment. You should be able to get your listing fees back, then I would relist them.

Only thing that sucks is the Mandatory wait time before opening a claim!!

Mikey,

If you sent them a invoice, do it again with a firm note telling them this is the last invoice before you file a non-paying bidder or "unpaid item" case as Ebay calls it. You can do that after 4 days of closing.

Unfortunately, Ebay is becoming a bit one-sided with buyers, which was good for me last week, but in other cases, it's making it tougher.

I suggest you put in writing on all your auctions what you expect from the buyer, payment, shipping, insurance and most of all payment and what happens when you don't pay.

I agree, they were probably a registered user, then dropped out for whatever reason after the auction.

If you need a guideline, I could send you something tonight.

BBK--i did email them another invoice last night asking them if you are going to pay,and if not i would open two case for non-payment...Today i got a reply telling me that he closed his p.p. account do to the fact that someone was trying to get in to it....and could not pay right now,so iam opening the case for non=payment so i can re-list the parts....Mikey

MIKEY, I'm not sure that they're telling you the whole truth. Someone tried to get into my P/P acct. too and I just called P/P and got a rep to resolve the whole thing right then and there with me without ever having to close my acct.

You could be right drummergrl but also hes new to ebay and i still get these emails at my email address saying theirs something wrong with your paypal account..Click here-then they ask you to sign in to your p.p. account..this whole email is a scram--Ebay calls them Spoof emails...So who know's what happen...Mikey
