Buyer bids on an auction for a pop! vinyl, wins it at a great price ($12.50-I lose money out of the transaction). Now he is reluctant to pay due to the "risk" involved. I swear, I thought it was 1996 all over again

treat him like any other buyer, he has 4 days to pay then begin the Unpaid Item Dispute.

if he had doubts he should NOT have pressed BID/BUY.

sounds like a candidate for a block.

You could reassure them. Ask them to view your feedback, and that you will promptly post out the item, carefully packed, as soon as you have payment.

something like that. With all the scary eBay stories I can understand it a bit...still insulting of course.

And possibly they have already had a bad experience with some other seller who set starting price too low and then decided not to sell ??

I'd go with ambers advice - reassurance usually works wonders 🙂
