[QUOTE="Snaketibe, post: 512318, member: 7379"] Sorry to hear you've been mucked about, Paul. I hope they cough up and pay very soon. I've never really understood people that bid with no intention of paying. I know I'm not them and it's hard to put yourself in the shoes of another, especially if they're nothing like you, but I wouldn't dream of bidding on something if, a) I didn't want the item, or b) I couldn't afford or didn't want to pay for it. Perhaps Nick's right, and a lot of bids are placed when people are drunk? But if so, surely when they sober up and realise what they've done they would contact the seller, cap in hand if need be, to apologise and explain what they've done? I am lucky in that I have very rarely had any problems on eBay, but I am almost exclusively a buyer not a seller, so perhaps there's more scope to encounter problems when selling? At any rate, I always try to be the buyer I would want people to be with me, and unless there is a very good reason not to, I always pay for my auction wins within minutes of winning them.
