Hi, I usually wait 5 days, if they have not paid by then, I send a message thanking them for their purchase and requesting payment in the next couple of days, as I tell them my system automatically lodges non payment violations after seven days. ( Slight porky, I lodge them manually after seven days as some buyers request an extension of time to pay ). If they don't pay, the non payment dispute gets around 30%-40% into action. I close the disputes after four days and relist. I have found it is usually better to persist for a week or so with non payers, as the auctions are sometimes tarnished and lose interest if relisted. If relisting, I put a note on the auction, stating it is relisted due to non paying buyer, and also lodge the non payers on my blocked bidder list to stop them fiddling with future auctions. ( they can get grumpy with the non payment strike ) Hope this helps.
