RickHarrisMaine Posted April 6, 2008 Share Posted April 6, 2008 Guys, I have been trying for almost a month now to complete an eBay transaction with Bigdaddy4976 on Ebay. On March 11, he got in a bid at the last minute for my complete Res. Evil 2. for the PS1. I sent him an invoice that night. I sent him 2 more reminders to pay me that week, then 7 days later, opened up an unpaid item dispute. Within a day, he said he was sorry, had problems with his dial-up, and would pay me by 3/28. I said that was fine. On 3/28 he said he was sorry about the wait, and would pay me that night. 3/28 passed with no payment. I sent out two more e-mails to him reminding him to pay me, then on Friday April 4, closed the transaction, got a final value fee credit, and relisted the item, and left negative feedback. He then paid me today, April 5, and I refunded his money promptly. He left me a neg saying the item was paid. So I sent him a total of 5 or 6 e-mails, and I only got payment after I closed the transaction. What more am I supposed to do here? So I would deal with caution when dealing with Bigdaddy4976. I now have a neg on my feedback, which sucks, but I thought I would warn you about this clown. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Psionic Posted April 6, 2008 Share Posted April 6, 2008 What more am I supposed to do here? Report that neg to eBay and have it removed (since he's a NPB). Other than that? Nothing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kroogur Posted April 7, 2008 Share Posted April 7, 2008 Don't neg non payers Why? if they don't pay they get a neg. Why should other sellers get burned by someone who doesn't feel they need to hold up their end of the contract. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is why I stopped selling anything on ebay. All I ever got were non-paying people who got belligerent when you kindly asked them to pay. How dare you expect them to actually pay for the stuff they bid on! What I want to know is why people bother wasting your time and theirs bidding on stuff they have no intention of paying for? Do they get some sort of rush bidding on something they know they'll never actually get? People are strange... Tempest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A.J. Franzman Posted April 9, 2008 Share Posted April 9, 2008 Bigdaddy4976 : Invalid User IdWell I guess he showed you! Never mind, that was an eBay glitch. After trying to block him and getting that error, I did a member search and found him just fine, then I was able to block him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peeingas Posted April 17, 2008 Share Posted April 17, 2008 Don't neg non payers Seriously? Why not? They'll neg you back 9 times out of 10 and negging them does nothing anyway. Filing for your fees back gets them kicked off not negs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Filing for your fees back gets them kicked off not negs Uh, the buyer already negged him. See earlier posts. Only after the seller negged him first, and I was meaning that in a more general way. (i.e. don't neg nonpayers and 99.9999999% of the time they won't neg you first) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lemoncurry Posted April 19, 2008 Share Posted April 19, 2008 It's playing with fire, negging non-payers. They do tend to neg back. Soon you won't even be able to neg non-payers. But yes, the thing to do is to report the NPB and if he doesn't respond, the neg will automatically be removed. If he does respond, you can work out a mutual withdrawal if you want the neg gone, I believe whether you decide to complete the transaction or not. The proper time for negging was always after all else had failed... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
