Another NON Payer on Ebay.

[Noddy]

I listed a BGS 9.5 Michael Jordan 04-05 SPX Winning Materials for sale the other day as Ebay had a 20c listing day. Just to see if it would sell.
I recieved a offer yesterday morning and excepted it. I got up this morning to find a e-mail in my inbox that said -

Ian,

Im really sorry to do this to you, but I've won an earlier auction to yours
which I didnt think I would, which leaves me short of $ to pay for yours.
Sorry for the inconvenience, you can open a dispute and give me a strike to
re-claim the fees and re-list the item. Once again, I do apologise for all
the hassle and inconvenience.

Regards,
Kelvin

I am not here to bitch and moan but i thought you guys might like to know as many of you also sell on Ebay.
Thanks. Ian.

That is a pathetic excuse

agreed. thats a poor excuse, but he was open about filing a dispute against him etc which you dont see very ofter??

that poor excuse would definately piss me off, just file a non paying bidder against his name and neg if possible.

He only did that to make himself seem like a nice guy so as not to get negatived. I'd respond saying you'll be getting all that and more and see what he says, I bet he won't be so nice then.

I would reply , i can wait till you get paid again and see what they say.

You could open a non-paying bidder dispute (takes 8 days) and give him a strike or open a mutual agreement and get the listing back on Ebay (he won't get a strike).
Either way add him to your blocked buyers list.
