Buyer not turning up to collect item ( c.o.d )

[sattwood73]

If a buyer sells an item for collection with  ( cash on delivery ) and the buyer doesn't turn up after agreeing time, can you leave NEGATIVE feedback ??

Looking at the options you can't and how are we to know that this person who's currently showing 100% positive feedback hasn't done this on several other occasions ??  When in in fact he's not got genuine 100% feedback and we have then wasted our time in waiting for this person to turn up.

This appears to be very poor on EBay

Cash on delivery is far better for collection.  It prevents any comeback and the buyer cannot [dishonestly] say that he never got the item.  If he paid by Paypal and did not collect you do not seriously think you could keep the money?

There is no need for you to know whether a buyer makes a habit of it.   If he has had two non-payers in a year and you have set your prefences he simply will not be able to buy from you. 

That's a result!

You’ve completely missed my point…Pay by PayPal he/she is much more likely to turn up…

You’ve obviously not spent all afternoon making different arrangements and had someone NOT turn up….when it happens to you …then you might see things differently.
