Has their been an increase in non paying bidders lately

[3bay_addict]

I Usually have a non paying bidder every now and then.

I am not selling a lot of items but i have had more non paying bidders lately then ever before.

Has anyone else had the same experience.

[syrupsmummy]

Not sure about increase.

But I have 3 NPD cases open at the moment. They will be closed tonight if they don't pay.

Mine is increased lately 😞  Stay positive

I have had 2 so far in 2012. Never had it before this year. It annoys me also that we are unable to say this in their feedback so that other sellers can beware.

Put them on your block bidders list and if we all do that, it will weed out a lot.

Remember it's only the few, most of us are Good.

Have a better day.:-)

I had 2 last financial year, none so far this financial year.

in fact I check my block bidder Activity Log today, surprised that I only had 2 bidders with more than 2 strikes blocked in January and NONE blocked in Feb... so for me, they are not even around out there nibbling at my listings.  yay  !!!!

I have doubled my usual number for a year.

2 instead of the usual one per year. May be about to get another but they usually pay up once a dispute is opened.

Of course as I am selling a lot more items this year than ever before the percentage of non payers is probably about the same.

Yep, have my first for 2012, going on to 10 days now, and case has been opened, and 3 emails sent, but no response.  So rude, if they change their mind, why not just let seller know.

I can't remember my last one. Early last year I think. Or maybe the year before.

I feel dudded. I have only ever sprung one member on my Blocked Bidder Activity List, or whatever it's called.

Maybe book buyers are more fair dinkum?

I don't sell a lot of books but I have had to open at least 2 UIDs to get payment from them, probably takes them a while to get their heads out of their current read 😉
