Sellers- Why You Should File UID's for Non-Paying Buyers - UPDATED

It is very important that all sellers with non-paying bidders file unpaid item disputes if payment is not received from buyers.
Since negative feedback can no longer be left for buyers who do not pay to warn other sellers, filing an unpaid item dispute has become more import than ever. Filing a dispute and then closing it eight days later will give the buyer a strike towards suspension and is the only way sellers have to protect each other from bad buyers.
It is also important to file for the correct reason - that the buyer didn't pay. If they don't pay, don't file "mutually agreed to cancel the transaction" - that does NOT give the buyer a strike.
Sellers must help each other by filing these forms to get these habitual non-payers off of E Bay. While most buyers on eBay are honest, the small amount that don’t pay can now wreak havoc with feedback. Suspension is the only way to stop these buyers.
Please read and use this link to file your dispute and remember to close it eight days later if the buyer doesn’t respond, (or sooner if the buyer does respond):
http://rebulk.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?CreateDispute
Keep in mind, if your buyer does not respond to the dispute before you close it, any feedback they leave you won’t count against your feedback score and will have a notation from eBay that the buyer did not respond to the UID filing. And if the buyer responds to the dispute but in replying to it they do not express dissatisfaction with the seller or the item, feedback can also be removed. So don’t let the threat of feedback deter you from filing.
Additionally, you will have your basic re-listing fee refunded as well if you file the UID, close it and then re-list and the item sells.
Remember, you are not only getting fees back that you paid eBay, you are also helping your fellow sellers by giving the non-payer a strike towards suspension.

This post was from May 31, 2008 11:03 PM. Three years ago this problem surfaced and three years later it is still a problem! For years eBay execs have promised they were working to improve the site and curb problems with buyers but it seems NOTHING has changed... if anything it has gotten worse! I don't exactly agree. While certainly some new buyers are problems, so are many seasoned buyers. And it didn't start on May 2008. Non paying buyers have always been a problem and I've been selling for 12+ years. Again, not just new buyers. When Ebay made the change not to allow sellers to leave honest FB, non paying bidders did increase and since that time, Ebay has done nothing to control it. Did the change happen May 2008, I thought it was October 2008, but I could be wrong on that. Too long ago and too many chances since then to keep track of it in my little mind.

Sellers need to have their Buyer Requirements [in Site preferences] set to the strictest possible for UIDs. 2 in 12. If all sellers would file UIDs when appropriate along w/having your settings at 2 in 12, it would cut down on NPBs. They would be blocked from bidding or purchasing from ALL sellers that had their setting 2 in 12. This is our best defense, but each of us is dependent upon other sellers following suit. This will dramatically reduce the non payers if we work together.

I am very frustrated with Ebay's policies. It seems as though they really lean towards whats best for the buyer. If we (sellers) did not list, there would not be buyers! Out of 10 listings this last two weeks, I have 6 NPB...I have opened a NPB on all of them. So, First I wait 4 days for them to pay, then give them a few days to respond to my request for payment, now I am at 7 days. Then open a NPB and wait another 4 days. That's 11 days of tying up merchandise and a complete waste of time! My solution: Since Ebay requires all sellers to use Paypal, when a buyer wins an auction, automatic payment should be put in place. Afterall, if a buyer doesn't have the funds, they should not be bidding. I have worked with many buyers who ask if I would wait until payday etc and that is fine by me, but so many just don't respond. Those buyers don't care, they know they can just start a new account!

Secondtime You don't have to wait a week to open the UID, up if that is your preference, it obviously is fine. You can however open them as soon as 96 hours after the purchase. When you open a UID, make sure you note the date and TIME you open it. Then close it promptly after another 96 hours passes. It certainly is not a perfect system, but it is so much better that what it use to be. We use to have to wait a week to open them and another week to close them. I do give my buyers a week to pay, so promplty on day 7 if they haven't paid, I open the UID. Ebay does NOT require sellers to accept PayPal. While it certainly is in our best interest to do so as most buyers use PP, we are NOT required to accept it. Ebay does have a few other approved electronic payment sources you can use, but then you will significantly limit your buyer base as they are not near as popular with the buyers. You can also accept money orders, cashier checks, personal checks, chickens, barter, first born child, etc. You just can't state that you will take anything other than an electronic form of payment. But if your buyer writes you and asks you if you will accept an MO, you can [and should] say yes. I personally love it when they ask as I will always say YES to US buyers. No fees on the payment can really help a seller. If Ebay would just fix the FB system, it would go a LONG LONG way to fix a great deal of the non paying issues. So many of us have suggested and continue to suggest that if Ebay would just allow us to leave negative FB for buyers we have to file UIDs on and close the UID for non payment, it would help so much. But Ebay doesn't see the need and doesn't want the sellers to leave honest FB on buyers. It will scare them away. I say GOOD, lets scare away the PITA buyers. We don't need them, we only need the majority of the buyers that are honest and pay for what they agree to purchase. .

Agreed-- when buyers don't pay as contractually required, why does eBay give them a free pass to continue buying?

"I am very frustrated with Ebay's policies. It seems as though they really lean towards whats best for the buyer."
That's because "what's best for the buyer" is also best for Ebay's bottom line. If buyers started costing Ebay a lot of money, I'm sure they'd be quick to throw them under the bus too.
There's a simple reason why it seems like Ebay doesn't care about deadbeat bidding: they don't! Once the auction closes with a winning bid, they've got their fees. Whether you the seller then get paid is largely immaterial to Ebay. In fact, if you don't try to stand up for your rights, it can be better for them if you don't get paid.
Ebay makes their money from the listing fees and final-value fees that sellers pay. If an item ends without a bid, the seller can relist it free (actually, you will be charged the second listing fee, but it's credited back if the item sells the second time.) Similarly, if a seller has a deadbeat bidder and goes through the UID process, he'll get a refund of the final-value fee he was charged for that uncompleted sale.
However, sometimes a seller will choose not to report a deadbeat to Ebay, because he fears for his feedback or DSRs, or simply because he doesn't want to waste the time. Assuming the item is relisted and sells again (hopefully to a paying bidder this time) Ebay will receive TWO listing fees and TWO final-value fees for a SINGLE completed sale.
Obviously, Ebay doesn't mind getting paid twice. So as long as deadbeat bidding means extra money for Ebay, their efforts to contain it are going to be be half-hearted at best. The decision-makers at Ebay know that their policies enable and encourage fraud, and that the UID process is unnecessarily onerous, time-consuming, and risky. But they have decided (accurately, it would seem) that they can afford to lose the certain small percentage of sellers who will get fed up and leave.
There's a big difference between fairly maximizing profits (which is any company's fiduciary duty to its stockholders) and turning a blind (or not-so-blind) eye to misbehavior that is damaging to that company's own customers (we sellers are Ebay's ONLY customers; the buyers are OUR customers.) An ethical company wouldn't act this way, but the fact that Ebay is well aware of the of problem of deadbeat bidding, and yet allows and even tacitly encourages the practice, is proof that it is not an ethical company.
The best thing you can do is to file a UID every time it's appropriate, to give the deadbeats their strikes, and to deny Ebay any ill-gotten gains. Remember to add the deadbeat to your Blocked Bidder list so he can't trouble you again in the future. And set your Buyer Requirements to exclude buyers who have strikes (as few as two in the previous 12 months) so you can take advantage of the experience other sellers have had with problem buyers. You can't see a warning in the form of a visible negative feedback or UID strike against some deadbeat, but you CAN make use of the fact that those strikes are there on his account, even if they are hidden from view
By the way, check those Buyer Requirements from time to time to make sure they are still set the way you want them; Ebay has a way of changing peoples' site preferences without saying anything.

In fact, although I'd never set up a second ID to shill bid on my own auctions, I have considered "shill questioning" just so I could get the word out there.

I do give my buyers a week to pay, so promptly on day 7 if they haven't paid, I open the UID." Second-time- I use the exact same reasoning to open my UIDs on day four and close them on day eight. Ebay's own policies state that buyers should pay within four days. I don't really insist on that, I state in my auctions that payment is expected within seven days. But I also say just afterward that an unpaid item strike will be given on the eighth day if I have not received payment. I send out an invoice and email to my buyers as soon as possible after the auction ends. If I haven't heard anything or received the payment by the third day, I repeat both. AT NO POINT DO I "THREATEN" TO FILE A UID, OR ASK IF THERE'S SOME PROBLEM THAT I NEED TO WORK OUT WITH THEM. I'm willing to do so, but being the first to breach the subject is not a good idea. On day four I open the UID and stop trying to contact the buyer. In my experience, about a third of the ones who receive that UID notice will pay within the next 24 hours. I thank them, say not a word about the UID (which will have closed automatically) and send their item. The other two-thirds I'll never hear from. When day eight comes, I close the UID to give them their strike and get my fees back, and add their ID to my Blocked Bidder List. One other thing: If I had other bidders for the item that's being tied up, I'll get in touch with them shortly after I file the UID, to let them know that the winning bidder has a problem, and that the item may become available again in a few days. Reaching out like that can keep them "on the hook" and prevent them from going to another seller to buy the item.

But if your buyer writes you and asks you if you will accept a [money order], you can [and should] say yes. I personally love it when they ask as I will always say YES to US buyers. Yes, be careful when accepting even international money orders from other countries. I've heard of substantial fees being attached to some. I'd rather accept foreign cash than most foreign money orders. (However, that does not really apply to Canada (America's hat!) From what I've seen, money orders and even personal checks from there work just fine here, or at least as well as domestic ones. And the 80-cent USPS Delivery Confirmation even works in some major Canuck cities.) For my other foreign buyers, I discourage Paypal if the total is going to be over $25. Over that amount (or somewhere near it, depending on my mood) if they pay with Paypal, I have to insist on insured Priority Mail International or Global Express Mail with tracking. Those services are MUCH more expensive than standard First Class International postage, which can be used for up to four pounds. If the total is below that ~$25 limit, I'll usually take the risk and use the cheaper service, even though if something happens (or even if the buyer just says something happened) Paypal will refund all his money, from my account. Over $25 or so, I have to insist on the more expensive shipping, unless they can release me from the Paypal liabilities by paying some other way. In those cases I recommend the wire me their payments via Western Union or WalMart. The buyer calls or visits Western Union, and pays them the money, giving them my name and city. Western Union gives the buyer a confirmation number, which he emails to me. On the way to the post office with his package, I stop at my local grocery store, which like many, does Western Union at the business desk, give them the number and a photo ID, and get my money. WalMart works pretty much the same way. For either them or Western Union, there's a small fee on the buyer's end, but it's usually less than the difference in postage between First Class and the other services.

HI!
I'm a new seller to eBay and I have just run into my first INTERNATIONAL NON PAYING BIDDER + ZERO FEEDBACK. I just opened a case on it today, being that today marks the 4th day. I have tried to contact the buyer and I have had no response from her yet. It does give me the option to close the case but should I wait the other 4 or 8 days?
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Tks,
E~

Welcome itzqueenie !!! Make sure you make a note of the date and time that you opened the UID. You are correct, you can't just open a UID and then close it right away. Time has got to elapse to allow your buyer time to respond. Ebay gives them 96 hours. So if you haven't received payment in 96 hours, close the UID at that time. Now a couple suggestions if I may. First off, I wouldn't be too outraged that this is a zero FB buyer and because they are a zero FB buyer doesn't mean they are likely to be a bad buyer. That would be the same as looking at your account and ASSuming you are a bad seller because you have no experience. Neither is likely to be true. There are just as many if not more seasoned Ebayers that do this kind of thing. You have a note in your listings drawing attention to the fact that you are a new seller. I would recommend removing that. There is no need to draw peoples attention to that fact. They too may ASSume that you aren't a good seller OR they may bid and try to take advantage of you because you are new. Either way, it is inviting problems to state that in your listings. Having the MSRP in your listing is fine, but I don't think the amount you paid for it is necessary or helpful. What it does at this point to those that are very familiar with Ebay, is show them that you may not be aware of what you are getting yourself into. While it is very important to establish yourself, you don't have to go into debt to do it. For example: Your Coach bag for $75.00. Lets just assume that it sells for $75.00. Here is how that would break down. 1.00 Listing Fee 8.25 FVF [Ebay Final Value Fee] 2.20 Estimated PP Fees for US buyer 8.75 Estimated Shipping 20.20 Subtotal 119.00 Your cost to buy the product 10.00 Estimated Sales Tax Pd on product. 129.00 Subtotal [149.20] Total for product and fees 75.00 Amt Sold for [74.20] LOSS That's a pretty hefty loss and you won't last long doing that. Heck I'd have trouble eating one of those listings with that kind of loss much less all the ones you have listed. That's almost a 100% LOSS. But then there is the sweater you sold for 9.99 and paid over $70 for. That's pretty scary. You lost a whole lot of money on that one and others you sold. If these are real prices you paid for the product, you are not doing yourself any favors selling them for such low prices. You've already lost 100's of dollars on what you've sold. That's not getting established, with all respect, that's crazy. Not a good business plan. You need to find products that you can list for at the very least what it will cost you to purchase and sell the items on Ebay to include all fees and shipping. .

If all sellers would file UIDs when appropriate along w/having your settings at 2 in 12, it would cut down on NPBs.

itzqueenie You are very welcome. Also something that may help you is in how you have your Buyer Requirements set. You will find this under your Site Preferences from your My Ebay page. It's located under the "account" tab. In the Buyer Requirements, you can require your buyers to have PayPal accounts amoung other things. If you haven't set them, you should go look at them and decide what is best for you. When you change them, it will only affect listings you create after you make the change. If you want them to affect your live auctions there is a box you can check to do that during the update process, just watch closely for it. I don't remember if I mentioned it earlier, but I would also recommend that you do not put in your listings how much stuff costs you. It's really not your buyers business what it cost you and when they see that something cost you far more than you are listing it for, it could cause great concern and cause them to think twice about buying from you. You don't see Walmart or Sears putting their costs on products.

itzqueenie, Mam is Spot-On with her advice to you. The only thing I can ask is what are your motives? You state in your listings: *****I HAVE DECIDED TO START THE BIDDING LOW ON SOME OF MY ITEMS BECAUSE I AM BRAND NEW TO eBay AND I AM TRYING TO ESTABLISH MYSELF AS A SELLER. SO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF IT NOW!!***** While I can understand that on a couple of items and count them as "Loss Leaders" you really need to realize that you can not sustain yourself very long by loosing so much money. You will run out of capital long before your reputation will be established... unless you are already wealthy. I also feel like that (after reading your listings) you have set yourself up to be seen as... or taken as a "Mark", making you prime to be taken advantage of.

Queenie- I agree with Mam's advice about showing the price you paid for items, but from the other perspective: what if someone would pay more? Once they see that the bidding is approaching the price you paid, why would they want to pay more than that, knowing that there are better deals available? Most of the items I sell on Ebay are bought here as well. I had a buyer who once looked up all my bidding, figured out that he had paid me a lot more than I had paid for the item (in with a large lot of other stuff) and then took me to task for having somehow cheated him. Of course, in addition to the fact that no one ever twisted his arm, he failed to include in his calculations what else was involved in my buying and reselling: researching prices, finding the items, buying them, cleaning and/or repairing, photographing, listing, answering questions, taking the risk that the bids will come in low, selling, sending invoices, collecting the money, packing the items for shipping, and schlepping them to the post office. Plus several of the items I had bought along with his were pretty much junk, and could not just be averaged in to figure my "acquisition cost." The rice you paid is none of your buyers' business, and putting that info out there can lead to no good.

By the way, while you're looking at those Buyer Requirements, be sure to set them to block bids from bidders who "Have received 2 Unpaid Item strike(s) within 12 Month(s) "
It's been several years since sellers could warn each other about deadbeat bidders via feedback for buyers, but with this requirement in place, you can still take advantage of their experience.

Thanks for your post DELTAMASTER! And to answer your question...... My motive is to get those 5 star feedbacks that you PRO SELLERS are striving for. I guess you could say that I am trying to give it a kick start at my own expense. Most of the items I have listed now are things that I CAN afford to take a loss on, just to gain the experience and hopefully get a 5 star feedback. It's a risk I am willing to take. Don't get me wrong though, I do have limits because I am definitely not wealthy.  iTzQUEENiE

What you need to do to get the DSRs [stars] rated high is to provide good customer service, describe things well, ship promptly and at a fair rate. Keep in mind there is a 9 percent FVF on Shipping, so you need to add that to whatever shipping costs you have. Giving away stuff is not the answer you seek. And telling buyers how much you paid for something isn't a good idea at all. You could sell somebody something worth $100 but they pay $10. That will not at all EVER assure you of the high ratings. The high ratings are NOT and do NOT have anything to do with the sale price. It's an auction, buyers are only going to bid what they think the item is worth to them. This has nothing to do with how they rate you as a seller. It's how you conduct business with them that counts. .

You are very welcome. Here is a link that explains DSRs and how they can and will affect you as a seller. You will notice that the price of the item does not come into play. http://leavingfeedback.com/page2.html .
*********
Sellers need to have their Buyer Requirements [in Site preferences] set to the strictest possible for UIDs. 2 in 12. If all sellers would file UIDs when appropriate along w/having your settings at 2 in 12, it would cut down on NPBs. They would be blocked from bidding or purchasing from ALL sellers that had their setting 2 in 12. This is our best defense, but each of us is dependent upon other sellers following suit. This will dramatically reduce the non payers if we work together.

deadhead I'm so happy you stopped in to say all is OK. I was wondering where you had been. We have good friends here and we all do sincerely care as Delta found out first hand. Stay safe and out of the storms. .

I personally opt for the hunky-man type! Get your orders in soon ladies (or gentlemen if that is your thing!) and I will make every effort to satisfy you. After all, that is the eBay way and I am sure hoping to get those 5 stars in all categories!!!
