Is there a place to post "NON-PAYING BIDDERS" on Net 54? Is there any consequence to bidding on an auction on Net54 and not paying?

What about that famous Cobb seller reverse auction that disappeared....same consequence to bidder or seller......we all say shame on you...and they feel really bad about it and then 'leave the hobby' and they then have to spend the rest of their days selling items on behalf of a friend...

I know if sellers collect money and don't ship product, they get banned....plain and simple. I'll ask Leon about the NPB's.

Well, I would probably PM me first and see if we can get it resolved. If not, then we go from there. There are no restrictions on this board about saying anything you want to (in a civil manner). IF you want to say that I didn't pay for something, fine by me, just have your name next to it. And yes, not paying for something on the BST will get you at least banned from there, immediately, and probably the whole board. Those are black and white rules and it seems there is always some gray in the middle. Recently a guy got the boot for admittedly not paying 8 bucks then, if I recall correctly, acted like it was someone else's fault he got the boot (or the money was no big deal). But my memory is poor and that might not exactly be it. I think it was the gist of it though. All that said, yes, on this board actions have consequences.
