I sold an item the other day on BIN,as yet the buyer hasnt paid or gone through the checkout,checked their feedback and they had none and they had only just registered 2 days before they purchased my item,checked today and they have 5 lots of feedback from the same buyer (all these items were BIN), the buyer they bought them from incidentally had two of the same item that i had sold so i wondered if they had bought my item on BIN on behalf of the person who had the same items as me for sale to get rid of my listing it just seems strange to me, also when i had a confirmation that my item had sold the buyers address was missing under registered address and said please ask,am i just being paranoid or does anyone else think this is strange.

Seems odd, I consider BIN exactly what it says on the tin. If someone doesn't pay "Now" there's something odd happening. IMHO Lodge your non paying bidder complaint immediately.My Doctor told me that "1 out of 3 people who start smoking will eventually die." The other two apparently became immortal.

Not much help really but i do remember there being a post on here in the last few weeks for a site you could use to check for shrill bidders...
May be worth having a look back ......maybe time consuming, cause i couldnt find it on search...
And possibly not applicable anyway..
All the best
maybe this may help

The proper way to deal with shillers is to report all involved IDs via safety centre.My TV is broken!
Edit: refunded £515 for TV 1.5 years out of warranty - thank you Sale of Goods Act! :j0 -
While i have got to wait 7 days to report unpaid item,the item the same as mine which is being sold by them will have a better chance of being sold,there is some dirty tricks going on,whilst mine remains unsold and i have relist fees etc,not happy.0
