Non payment from a winning bid

[maisiemoo1522_0]

Hi, can I leave negative feedback against a buyer that doesn’t pay

[pixiesen2012]

the option for sellers to leave negative feedback was removed over 11 years ago!!

sellers were holding buyers to ransom and feedback was not showing true,

so ebay removed the option for sellers and introduced non payment strikes instead,

these work really well if sellers do it properly,

when you have a non payer you need to complete a non payment case to get your final value fees refunded and give them a non payment strike

http://pages.ebay.co.uk/help/sell/unpaid-items.html

then add the non payers ID to your blocked list

then set you bidder requirements to block bidders with two or more non payment strikes in the last 12 months

Look at it this way,  if you could ,  ( and you cannot , as has been explained),  leave that negative , how would it help sellers who sell Buy it Now items,  no time to read and detect that   buyer is a possible serial non payer.

Now ,  if everyone used the tools provided,  and opened and closed  those unpaid item cases,  it gives the non payer a well deserved strike on their account,  two strikes and they cannot buy from the majority of sellers on eBay for a full 12 months.

Far more effective,  and works very well.

You cant. That is why there is no negative link on the feedback

If you have a non payer you open a non payment dispute at the bottom of the page under Resolution Centre.

You can open one after 2 days and close after another 4 days.

You get your final value fees back the non payer gets a strike and neither of you can leave feedback.

If you dont do this then ebay do not know you did not get paid and you have to pay the fees.

You have 32 days to open a dispute

The strike they get is much more effective than feedback

Two or more strikes and they will not be able to bid on many sellers items if those sellers have their buyer requirements set to block bidders with non payment strikes

Set yours
