Ebay user to block

[bobbyw8469]

Those that may be questioning why I won't cancel the sale, it is because I want him to get his deserved "Non-payer strike". I use those strikes to block bidders/buyers and wouldn't want to cheat other users from this benefit.

There are ways around the NPB strike. I had a person win an auction, JBVEGAS10. After the auction, he claimed some bullcrap story about not liking the spider wrinkles on the back, even though I clearly showed pictures of them and described the card as "GOOD". The way around the NPB strike is to pay the auction, then immediately say you want a refund and threaten to return to due to "not as described"....the best advice is to block, out them and move on.

A lesser annoyance, but I love when you go back and forth with someone in real time on a best offer, you accept their offer, then they take 5-8 days to pay you.

I have thought about stopping the best offer because they don't require instant payment when the offer is accepted. I have had more non paying issues with Best Offer listings than with auctions.

As a matter of fact, because of this issue above and paranoid he was using a second account, when I received an offer on a lot yesterday. I just removed the best offer and put the listing to that offer amount, then messaged the user stating if they wanted the listing at that price they could purchase directly. That way the listing was still there, but now at their offer price. So if they didn't pay it was still available to anyone that would (they did purchase and pay a few hours later).

I have a guy now who bought a 4 digit card and is on his fifth day. According to him, he has to wait to get paid.

Normally, I'd say he shouldn't be buyin cards

Thanks for the info; added him to my $hit list.

This guy won a Hank Aaron card auction of mine then reneged:

You might want to block him from wrecking one of your auctions.

JBVEGAS10 is the worst. You do NOT want him bidding on your auctions.

Sorry for your issues and thanks for the heads up. Guy is now blocked.

I didn't read all of the replies, but if you have messages showing he is claiming he'll leave appropriate feedback ahead of time, eBay will almost certainly wipe the feedback from your record once you show them.

I saw that thread. It is scary how many loopholes there are.

I do feel there are some protections for the seller, but you have to call ebay as soon as possible to get ahead of it, which is a headache.

I have been in constant communication with Ebay about this user. It is actually the first time I have contacted to report a member, but this guy got really bad after my last shared post above. I stopped responding as it was becoming cyclical.

The strange thing is that the Non Payer Strike doesn't even have any noticeable affects if it is just one. I have had non payers, I have gotten used to it, but never have had someone so upset about that strike before.

He is upset because that's one less time he'll be able to pull that on someone. Good for you for not putting up with this BS. No one forced him to submit an offer.

He is back and has disclosed for me his wife's account:
