Cancel unpaid item

Options
Buyer won an auction on Sunday night, looking at the options on the cancel order flow it's just the usual OOS, address issue, buyer asked.

Is there a specific way to cancel unpaid items please?

    You have to wait until the 4th day clicks over, so if they , for instance, bought at 8pm sunday you can open and close the NPB tonight at 8.01 pm.

    Once that 4 days has clicked over you will see the option to cancel due to buyer not having paid. That option gives the buyer a strike, and you get your FVFs back, also buyer cannot leave feedback.

    Thank you @soolin  :)

    Don't run auctions very often but had a few things I wasn't sure on the price of, 2 sold for a disappointing price and of course were paid for straight away, the 1 that went for a decent amount was a zero feedback bidder from whom I haven't heard a peep....
