Stupid Non-Paying Buyers!! What to do?!
 

I HATE that we can't leave buyers negative feedbacks! I literally had 9 auctions last week and only 2 people paid! Is anyone else experiencing this? What do you do to combat it? I do not accept paypal, but my merchant account is linked right through auctiva so buyers can pay directly through the ebay invoice or the pay now link at the top of the page. It doesn't look fishy or weird at all. Not like when I was using cc-now - boy was that a headache trying to send buyers an "outside of ebay" invoice - they were all like - "you're an international scammer!" ughhh. I want some recourse here! It seems that its the people with under 5 feedbacks that just bid, win, don't pay and don't respond to emails. I even tried calling some people with no luck. For me it is worth filing a dispute because my fees on each item are 20-25 bucks and that adds up real fast, especially when you need to relist the same item 3 times before it sells :rant: But is that all we can do? What can we do to prevent this?!!

You can change your preferences in your account to make it where your bidders have to meet certain criteria. You can change it to the buyer has to have a certain number of feedback like 10 to bid on your items. Other than that there isn't much you can do
