For the second time my Cam 1/1 was sniped by a zero feedback bidder. I guess someone wants me to not sell the card. Has anyone had thenfldecisionnow bid on their items? He became a member on March 16.

Set your filter on the auctions to weed out zero feedback bidders...

Impossible. You can only block members with a negative rating. -1 or less

well, i know I'm a 0 feedback buyer on ebay i think (because I recently started using it)... but it wasn't me bidding on your cam :)


edit:

actually, i have 1 feedback from a prior purchase (the reason i started using ebay :p)


is there a reason not to deal with 0 feedback members there? (new to the ebay thing)

sometimes i wonder if
the option to block bidders with non payments issues even works

Only if someone reports a Non-Paying Bidder. I feel it's the seller's screwing other sellers by not reporting the non-payment.

This is why I never to auctions. Too many idiots out there that bid and never pay. BIN BO is the way to go. You can pick and choose the potential buyer before you take any offer.

I've had this happen and it sucks. Yes, FreeThrow is right, you can't stop zero feedbackers from bidding, it's impossible. Here are your options:

Contact the second/third highest bidders. Beg and plead with them and tell them it wasn't you who shilled...give them the ebay name number and address/phone of the fake bidder (likely the address and phone are wrong anyway).

Or, run the auction again let people know in the auction that this has happened twice and you'd like to sell the card, so you're open to offers.

Thanks for the advice guys. I contact the second bidder and they were very understanding and the agreed to purchase at a second chance offer.

Especially true with high value items.
