eBay payers, instant to slow

Some pay instantly,
some not so fast.
Some in two or three days,
some at quite the last.

They bid enthusiastic,
they're not going to be beat.
But when it comes to paying me,
it's like a sheep's dying bleat.

It's been almost month,
I ask are you still alive?
Oh yes, comes the answer,
your payment will soon arrive.

I wanted the coin badly then,
and I still want it now.
But the cash for my purchase
comes from the sale of my cow.

    Very true, Laurent! One thing to note, however, is that if a buyer haven't paid or contacted you in a week since auction close, you can open a non-paying bidder dispute with eBay.

    Ah, yes I could,
    but, if I didn't wait,
    then no one would bid.

    Yes, some are slow,
    but pay they will for
    that which they sow.

    Something like 600+ auctions, been paid for all.
