Home Trading Cards & Memorabilia Forum

My first NPB need advice.

Sold a $15.00 card two weeks ago.

Sent an email reminder after 7 days, no response. Again at 10 days, no response. Finally sent last chance email today. Is it possible to just cancel the deal altogether?

I am not worried about the fees, but would not like to end up with my first negative on a $15.00 problem. I have seen threads where a seller files a claim and the buyer finally pays and then leaves a negative. Don't want this to happen if it is avoidable. Would rather move on with as little drama as possible.

Suggestions?

Thanks guys!

  • Morning,

    Asking for a commen sense outcome/solution from E-Bay: Priceless!! (In other words if the Buyer wants to hose you he can and will!)

  • Yes, you can request to cancel the transaction. If the buyer doesn't respond to the cancellation request within 7 days, then I believe it's automatically cancelled. Here's the eBay page about it; canceling a transaction.

    Glad I could make your morning Neil!

    Thanks for the info pato1516, I'll check it out.

    Looking at buyers feedback, seems he is completing other transactions.

  • Yeah... I just had someone buy 3 out of a 9 (quantity) lot I had like almost 2 weeks ago... Still hasn't paid... I don't even know how it's supposed to restore the amount they took off.

    Every time I send an NPB notice they seem to pay within 24 hours after that. I wait to send the NPB until 2-3 weeks after the auction and after several friendly reminder messages.
  • If someone doesn't pay, they get dinged right? I seem to recall three non-paying strikes and you get banned/suspended. If that's true, does it still happen if a transaction is cancelled?

    I am not sure if they get "dinged" or not, but if you file a NPB and they pay up, I think they can "ding" you.

    Can't imagine why a person can't take the time to answer emails.

    You only have to worry about them leaving you a neg if you get a crazy who won't pay you until you open a NPB claim. I am dealing with one right now. He is crazy and keeps making up BS excuses to not pay and I have given him 2.5 weeks. I am opening the NPB claim tonight and I know this turd is gonna pay me within 12 hours of me doing this and will probably neg me just because.

    Block and move on....NPBs are now a way of life on Ebay.

    Let me get this straight. If you file a NPB and buyer pays, but is mad about it, he/she can then leave a negative on the now completed transaction?

    EBay really needs to give sellers the right to leave feedback!

    All a buyer has to do is respond to the NPB thingie and they can leave FB

    The only way they can't leave FB is if they do not respond.

    At least that's the way it was.
