25 unpaid cases since 8/24 on ebay

[teambutterfield]

What is going on? I have to file cases on even guys with more than 1000 feedbacks. Are you guys having the same issue?

[corndog]

I file 1 or 2 a month on sales of 600 - 700 items a month.

I probably had 50 NPB this year. Out of about 500 sales.

[jcduncan]

That's ridiculous. I usually have 1-2 each round of selling.

[Jackg1980]

I just notice this. Wow my last 7 sales. I did sell the Floyd tho.

How long do you guys wait before you open a case?

[danimal875]

I am getting about 5-10%. Yes, even some high feedback people. I can only guess people throw a bunch of bids out there, and sometimes they get something they wanted more than your item, so they just say screw it.

[danimal875]

I start it on the 5th day. I send invoices daily for the first 3 days and if no payment by fifth, case gets opened. I NEVER get a response email when I send a courteous email reminder, so I have stopped doing that.

I allow 14 days. I don't have any problems with payment since I allow a generous payment schedule. I send one invoice and nothing more.

Yep, same here.

What is causing this? Disposable income shrinking? Hobby Dying?

[Branesergen]

Out of about 700 items this year I have had no non payers.

[Birdmandig]

Wouldn't it be great if ebay had a three strikes policy? I think ebay's handling of non-paying buyer's is a big fat joke!

Its not like the buyer can get a negative feedback which is absurd to me!

[smackvay]

ive had one in my last 1,000 transactions

[BlueReloaded]

My last two I had to open cases on, both with high feedback. One was a BO that I accepted, the other was an auction.

Once the case was opened though, they paid within 3 days.

better to have to lose time than money...i feel for you though...

It has been on the rise though as far as NPB's go...no idea as to why

[paparoke]

That is such bs and it is such an easy fix. All they need to do is start executing non paying bidders and I guarantee the problem will be quickly resolved.
