still haven't heard a word from winning bidder.

guy has perfect feedback, I sent and invoice with a thanks the morning after and a friendly reminder last night that I had not heard from him.
He posted his bid (probably a snipe) with 1 second to go in the auction and then fell off the face of the earth. It was only a 22 dollar card but how long am I supposed to wait?
I don't mind waiting a week or 2 for the payment as long as he lets me know, but I have not heard 1 thing from this guy.

Other card I sold at the same time took the winner 4 days to contact me but atleast with him, the first contact was his payment image

    I went to the beach last week and had snipes set for auctions ending the night I left and most of the other days. I was worried the seller would think the same of me. I didn't have internet access for 6 days, so I would give it a couple more days.

    well i had won a bunch of auctions four weeks ago before I left for europe for three weeks. I was sure that I had paid them all. I have perfect feedback and have never sent payment. well on the 6/11 I got an email from the seller saying he didnt get the check yet. he doesnt take paypal. i was finally able to check my email on the 15th and told him that I would have to check my records and i would be able to get back to him on the 20th. BTW, the first time I ever heard from him was through and Ebay complaint. Which was due on the 20th as well. So I check and let him know early in the AM on the 20th that some how for the first time one slipped through. I tell him that I would send a check that day priority. Later in the PM he emails back saying that since he never heard back from me that I didnt have to send the check as he sold it as a second chance offer. I am glad he didnt neg me though, but was kinda mad that he didnt let me pay after all.

    The cards I was selling were Heritage Black refractors and the guy's feedback show him buying a bunch of those so unless he bought the same card from someone else, then I'm pretty sure he'll pay up.
    Just a bit frustrating not knowing.

    LOL - payment just showed up - nice timing.

    I sell items at a pace of about 10-12 at a time. I almost always have a guy that waits 10 days or so to pay with no communication whatsoever.

    probably wouldn't have been concerned at all if not for all the negative Ebay stuff I've read on here lately image

    This was actually my first Ebay dealings in over a year and the first time I've sold any cards in about 5 years
