I've had negotiations on ebay, 5 or 6 messages back and forth on bids, and then a deal And silence for 3 days. Over a card that costs less than $100.

It hasn't happened to me, but a dealer friend frequently gets messages from winning bidders saying they're out of town and will pay when they get home. Uh, if they can access the internet to send the message, can't they access paypal to pay?

If it's over a publicly accessible open wi-fi, I probably wouldn't access paypal either.

And I've never done it from my phone.

Of course, if it was me, I'd simply have my wife do paypal from the phone, but that may not be an option for everyone.

Certainly would at least contact the original buyer before moving on.

I absolutely will.

If you sell the card to a third party, the first two will achieve the same outcome. Which is fair, I guess.

I have been in canada a couple of times where my PayPal will not work period. I had to message them i will pay when I get back into the U.S. Its a 50/50 if it works when I am up there.
