ebay newbie question....
red22 - 21/12/12 at 01:36 PM

So my auction finished last sunday and since then no contact from winning bidder or replies to my messages. Can i just offer it on a 2nd chance to another of the bidders or do I have to re-list it? also do I need to raise this with ebay? Thanks.

Technically you should wait 7 days before reporting and relisting.
What was it you sold? Does the buyer have good feedback?

I thought I'd sold a Raleigh Chopper. They've got a 100% rating but when i read the feed back there is another person who had the same problem as me. Can you not leave negative feed back any more?

Yes you can leave negative feedback if they do not pay.

Just she'd them a message and gve them the 7 days.

I'm deffinately not a happy bunny cos i feel my likely bike buyers will have disappeared next week. Who wants a new bike for january? Oh well live and learn. Just seems a bit unfair i have to wait 7 days when they cant be bothered to reply but were only to eager to bid. Dont they know i need an empty garage in january to begin my new project.

He may just be away or working or something.

I have had it where I hear nothing for a week then get paid.

No you cant anymore. you can only file a non paying bidder report. If he doesnt reply, or agrees to cancel the transaction, you get your fees back, but you dont get to leave him negative.

open an unpaid item case after 4 days. then they have 4 days to pay, after which you can close the case. you will get your fees back this way.

you cant leave negative feedback but you can leave a comment. Sometimes not worth it as they may leave you negative feedback.
