Buyers who Cancel after Auction finishes.

[thego2corner]

This is just me getting my thoughts out. What is worse? Non Paying Buyers....or Buyers who cancel item after winning auctions? 🤣 EBay doesn't do enough to protect sellers against this nonsense IMO.

What ya'll Think?

Cancelling after winning an auction is extremely rude.

You can prevent the hassle of this three ways.

Set your Sell Your Item form (use the business/advanced form for this) to automatically open an Unpaid Item Dispute 96 hours after the auction closes.

You get any fees back and the deadbeat gets a Strike.

Set your Seller Preferences/Buyer Requirments to automatically Block bidders with Unpaid Item Strikes.

Because there are ten times more Unpaid Items with auctions than with Fixed Price listings, even though Auctions are less than 15% of all transactions, use Fixed Price listings.

And if you want to never have another Unpaid Item ever, use Fixed Price/Immediate Payment Required.

Thanks for the great input. You rock!

Yes. These buyers are outrageous and disrespectful. You're absolutely right.

Thanks,
