    If you allow them to

     

    Have you cancelled the sale, ONLY selecting the reason 'buyer did not pay'  ?

     

    IF you do that, the buyer will get a strike on their account

     

    eBay considers an item sold as soon as a buyer 'buys' it

     

    They do not know they did not pay if you don't report it

     

    Do not reward them with a green tick in feedback with a neg comment. It against eBay policy and you will be pinged for doing it. Plus, it adds to the non payer's feedback score and encourages them to do it again

     

    Also add them to your blocked bidders list
