i have just made a dispute with a buyer on ebay ,basically he won the auction for my 90 tub (99p)last thursday, contacted me on the night ,saying he will contact me to arrange collection next week ,and said he was kicking himself for missing the chassis ,anyway that was the whole of the contact we had made ,monday i contacted him again asking what his intentions were for collection and does he still want it,no repl, so wednesday i sent another automated ebay payment reminder ,still no reply so today i did the dispute thing ,stating buyer had not responded ,the replies have come back lol, im not condemming the man, but all i wanted to know was do you still want it or not, i do feel a bit guilty having to through ebay though .but was i right to ,or was i being a bit hastey,

its the ebay payment reminder dispute type thingy
not the dispute centre :roll:

strapping young lad:
dont they say that you need to give the buyer a certain amount of time to pay...?

give it another week

if still nothing then seek ebays advice

was the payment via paypal or any other means?

wing nut:
it was payment on collection ,and in big bold letters collection within 7 days.. its not the 99p its the collection bit i needed to know, as my parents want thier garden back.

Edge:
He may just be a bit stupid/unintelligent :shock: .

I had the same type of thing happen awhile back, after 2 weeks buyer finally answers my request for payment and comes up with the excuse... "oh sorry, I didn't read the payment instruction/requirements bit of the auction".
Turns out he didn't log into ebay for the two weeks, so didnt get my messages.

I now specifically state....."payment within 48hrs".  Don't know if i can legally require payment so soon.....but it works :D .

I had a similar thing with someone who bought a games console from me.  He won the auction then never completed checkout or made any contact.  I sent emails and sent the invoice twice.  2 weeks later i started the dispute to get my FVF back and he complained saying i hadnt given him enough time to pay!  Then a week later he sent the cheque and it bounced the first time and cleared the second.  

Well this has only just occurred, i will close the dispute, leave him negative feedback (yes the transaction was completed but too much hassle inbetween!) and he cant leave me a negative cos i closed the dispute!
