Bidders time wasters - how to minimize?

[Jonnydoe]

Hello everybody!
approx. 35-50% people, who wins my lots do not pay never
Usually there is established ebay buyers with a lot of positive feedbacks, often they before end of auctions ask some question about items (I always give them answers)
How you fight with this problem?

country - USA, GB
I think block bidders from USA and Britain its bad idea

Difficult to do - depends a lot on your products for sale...

Agree with blocking bidders from USA and Britain being a bad idea...sales go down

Just make sure you open non paying bidder cases, they will get s strike against their account.

It may not help you but it will help others who have their buyer preferences set right.
