Buyer of vehicle hasn't collected or paid.

Vehicle sold at auction - buyer said they would collect 'on Saturday' and pay cash. Saturday is long gone and I get no reply to my messages. I can cancel the purchase and relist, but will I have to pay a second listing fee as a result of a deliquent buyer?

You will need to cancel for non payment after 4 days, otherwise you will still also have to pay the selling fee as well as a second listing fee.

Best to sell using a classified ad. there is still a listing fee, but you do not end until buyer has paid and there is selling fee.

Unless you correctly cancel an unpaid item after 4 complete days and within 30 days of sale, there will still be FVF Vehicle fees  to be paid ...  Cancel now >
