You win four separate auctions and none of them accept paypal. Then you forget the checkbook at home for the next week. Then all four sellers send you an email the same day checking up on payment.

    That does stink! It is SOOOOOOOOOO much easier if sellers accept Pay-Pal. I am at the point now where I will think twice before bidding if the seller does not accept Pay-Pal.

    For me, I will not even bid on something if they do not take Paypal, unless it is something that I have a hard time finding.

    I have been humming the Alanis Morisette "Isn't it ironic" in my head now for the past 20 minutes.

    Just say your *insert random relative* was in the hospital or died. That usually gets people off the hook.

    Or, I was sent out of town for business for a while.

    Or just be honest. I told each of them I am an absent minded fool and two of them replied saying, "At least your honest and not giving me a line of BS."

    I think it helps to have 100% feedback too.

    Yes, I seem to get a number of Traveling salesmen bidding on my auctions b/c that excuse pops up all the time. image

    ive saw alot of great cards that ive wanted, but if they dont take paypal, they dont get my biz, i figure if i get racked with ebay and paypal fees every month, they should too, with all the mail i used to get, i dont have much choice but to use paypal,its so much simpler!!some people are too cheap to pay the fees though,their loss, alot of people dont bid if you dont take paypal
