in Ebay, auctions, car boot sales, post & parcels
Hi, I have a bidder with 0 feedback who won two of my items 5 days ago. I specify in my listings 3 days for payment. On the third day I sent a polite email asking them to pay asap etc.. No response at all. How long do I need to leave it before reporting them as NPB??

    On the 7th day after the end of the auction you can file a dispute with ebay.

    I've had a few of these lately. REALLY annoying!!

    Thanks, I wasn't sure, but I have a funny feeling they're not going to bother paying. I've had one in the past, but I gave them about 3 weeks (trying to be nice) I havent got that much patience these days

    i've had a woman jus6t bought a keyboard piano off of me (it's only £20) and bid on it three minutes before it finished. i haven't had word nor sound from her since the auction finished (thursday) and have advised that i will report them to ebay and they'll get a strike (and going by their history, not their first!). what a tw*t
    helpful tips
    it's spelt d-e-f-i-n-i-t-e-l-y
    there - 'in or at that place'
    their - 'owned by them'
    they're - 'they are'
    it's bought not brought (i just bought my chicken a suit from that new shop for £6.34)

    doesnt matter if you say payment within 3 days...Ebay says to allow 7 days
