    just dont pay for the item - the ramifications of non payment are nil.
    As charlies-mum says you do get a mark against you, and more than one will see an inability to bid on many lots. Although given OP's inability to bid properly that could be a blessing;)

    If you only do it once, that's not going to have any affect, but do it twice and you may find yourself blocked from some sellers items (mine included)

    2 strikes would see them blocked from mine as well.

    thanks everyone I took the advice of the majority of posters on here.
    No two ways about this one: Anything Free is not a Basic Right..it had to be earned...by someone, somewhere
