PITA blocked bidder KVEkaren, the boyfriend who bought on her behalf and then requested a refund 2 weeks later is Richardacc. The bag was returned with a tracking ref local to her address not his, and has clearly been used.

Pessie, I just added these user IDs to my blocked list and they came up as "invalid" so maybe ebay has already suspended or de-activated their accounts?

I wonder if its because as I've typed them autocorrect has put capital letters in, I can still look at their info I regret to say. I'll type them again:
kvekaren, and richardacc

I actually sold one of my most expensive items to a zero feedback buyer who became a member just to buy my item. She never left me feedback but she did get into a bidding war with someone so the item sold for more than I'd expected. She wasn't my only zero feedback buyer, fortunately I've only had one person ever who did not pay, all the others have. So really you never know.

I agree. I've said it many times that I've rarely had issues with newbies and when there have been problem buyers, 99% are experienced ones who know the system and play it to their advantage.

I've sold a few high-end items where the person hadn't paid; no communication, etc (had to wait x amount of days to repost); so one time I posted in my ads "do not bid if you don't plan on paying'". Ebay took of my postings and told me I couldn't say that. WTF

I'm having a bidder who's won the auction, didn't pay after 48 hours, and ignored my message. I opened a non-paying case on eBay, then she returned my message and said she's worried the shoes weren't authentic and asked for more photos and therefore more time. I was a little skeptical, since I basically took all my pictures using TPF's authentication thread as a guideline. Considering she has zero feedback, I'm willing to give her the benefit of the doubt that she doesn't know eBay etiquette (you know, ask these kinda questions before you place a bid, if that's a thing), and it's kinda frustrating because the shoes are packed and ready to go, but now I'll have to repack again, and god knows how long will it take to resolve. Fingers crossed I'm not getting scammed here : (

I understand what you are saying but I really don't think this buyer is going to follow through with the sale, whether or not you give her more time. It appears she has buyers remorse. I would follow through with the non payment case. Once the time elapses you will get your final credit fee and listing fee reversed and will be able to list it again.
It really bothers me when buyers don't follow through.
