 Timewaster? As some of you may know, I sold my old Austin about two weeks ago, the guy that bought it still hasn't paid and is 'arranging transport'. I know, sometimes it takes quite a long time to sort out Shiply/Uship, but when he only contacts me after I drop him an email, it leaves me feeling like my time is being wasted, I have given him a week but I am seriously considering re-listing it on eBay! bearing in mind I can't get my Acadiane until it has been shifted....

Re: Timewaster? Did you ask for a non refundable deposit at end of auction? This stops them or shows there hand...

Re: Timewaster? I didn't  . I wanted to do cash on collection so that PayPal didn't take any of the money paid by the buyer(I think they took 20% when I sold my dyane!), and also because I was planning on buying another car which was cash on collection.

Re: Timewaster? Get a phone number and speak to them properly. Too easy to hide behind email.

Re: Timewaster? If you get buyer to do the payment as a gift then the full amount comes to you. Another option is to offer it to the one bidder below the winner and ask if he is still interested at the winning price...

Re: Timewaster? Use the eBay Customer Support and raise a Case.
They have the address and contact details of the buyer.
