I do wish ebay had not eliminated negative feedback for buyers. Is a question of fairness-if buyers can leave negative feedback for sellers, doesn't fundamental fairness demand that sellers also be able to leave appropriate feedback for buyers. I certainly wouldn't want to sell to your buyer, but how do you know they're a problem buyer w/o the opportunity to review their feedback?

Totally agree!

Made offer on bag. 2 days later she tells me she can't go through with it.
Well that happens. Ebay, at least in categories like handbags, seems to be based on a lot of impulse buying so I'm not surprised she would flake. Consider yourself lucky you didn't send the bag only to have her to invent something wrong so she could return it, or worse yet, for her to leave negative feedback if you refused. I've had that happen. More than once. It's a hard lesson, but sometimes letting a buyer walk away is the wisest thing you can do.

Again, please :back2topic:

This thread isn't for general chatting most posters put a short explanation of what happened to warn others, that's it.

Didn't pay for the bid, after several emails, she finally responds and says, she'll pay tomorrow. Tomorrow comes and no payment. Finally had to open a NPC. I should of known, although she has 21 reviews all 100%, someone was able to give her a positive review but commented that, she was an awful buyer and did not pay and no response. Ugh!
 
I have a couple gems to share.

gevae — No contact at all, never paid.

sparklelady2012 — No contact at all, never paid.

kv47592011 — Bid on the same item from multiple sellers, then asked to cancel his other bids after he won one. He doesn't seem to understand that bids are binding.

shopalottt — Same as the above user.
 
Don't sell to these women! Both of these buyers claimed their items were fake and filed SNADs and chargebacks, even though I gave them proof of their authenticity (store receipts, etc.). Neither one was able to prove the items were actually fake, and both were total nightmares to deal with.

sara_spender (she was worse, as she was nasty in her messages by calling me names and threatening me with negative fb if I didn't refund her immediately)

dproby2011 (asked about the size of the bag AFTER she did a BIN, then took more than a week to pay, then filed a SNAD)

Has 1 feedback and previously bought a red soles kit. Bought my Celine bag for full price when I had a best offer tab in place. Of course he/she didn't pay and I have now had to open a case against them. Just wasting my time. Whats the point of doing that??
