Non paying bidder

Hi there

i sold tickets for a gig in 3 weeks time,still expecting delivery,i said this in the auction and also payment within 5 days however not a bean heard,the e-bayer sells tickets himself and its astonishing no contact even if its a case that payment is made when i get the tickets.
My question is these where old 9th november and i have sent an invoice and a reminder,also requested contact number which i have.
I have never left negative comments for anyone and even though i now can;t am happy to give benefit of the doubt,not sure if phoning up the buyer is a wise move

any suggestions?

    Way past time to open a NPB dispute. Assuming the tickets sold on 9th Nov...? Sorry, your post isn't very clear on that point.

    Don't fret about negs - if the buyer deserves a non payment strike, let them have it.
    Ring if you want. But make sure you give them a strike if they don't pay.

  • i have filed a non payment dispute,does this mean they will place a strike on the account,still a bit wary of giving the ebayer a ring.
  • If they fail to pay in 7-8 days or so, you will be able to give them a strike and get your final value fees back.
