Ebay selling Q-how to stop deadbeat bidders?
Posted by nicknick (# 731) (more from nicknick) on Fri, 25 May 2012 20:29:57

Am i missing something? I cannot find a way to stop folks with zero feedback (and nothing to lose) from bidding on my items! I feel like it used to be easier, but the options for limiting bidders are things like "no-one with less than -1", or "anyone who has had 2 unpaid item strikes in the last month". Listing the wifes macbook for the second time,and the (current) winning bidder has just opened their account 2 days ago, obviously zero feedback... Last 'winner' had feedback of 1, never paid. Obviously i didn't ship it, but that's not the point. Auctions can be good or bad, and the last one was good-got a great price, but had to relist-no way of knowing how it will turn out this time. I have sold alot of stuff on the 'bay before (couple of years ago, was a silver seller!). Pretty frustrating having to wait for the week and a half (basically 2 weeks when all is done) before being able to relist.

Hopefully someone will post with a solution to this problem...TIA
