bid for a film on ebay and never paid me I have relisted it again a couple of weeks later and he has bid again the 10 minutes later he has retracted his bid

Why oh why do people bid on things they have no intentions of ever paying for?
Just block him David.
We can all do without our valuable time being wasted.

I have just tried to block him but it comes up invalid member yet he bid for my film then 10 minutes later he retracted it I will be contacting ebay first thing in the morning

Ian Morton of Lincoln has bought and paid quickly via Paypal Invoice for 16mm film prints from me in the past with no problem. Always follows through. Communication is a bit cryptic. He may be unfamiliar with eBay auction and thinks if he bids he buys ? I thought he is in the Services, and may be called away at times, so not a change of mind?

I have sent you a private message with his email address.

Ian

he bid for a film and won it and never paid me I sent him several emails and no reply I relisted film about 2 weeks later he bid again then 2 minutes later retracted his bid ,so whats is the game he is playing well it wont be with me It took me ages to get my commission charges of ebay for the film I sild him which he never paid for

It's a real hassle selling things on e bay at times. If people are going away on business that's fine, but either don't bid at that time if you know this in advance, or at least just ensure you communicate your intentions with the seller as you do so regarding any possible complications with an on time payment for any goods won.

Most sellers I've found, are extremely understanding so long as you keep them in the picture. It's only when a seller is left in the dark and has to begin attempting to claim back his / her fees for insertion and readvertise due to timewasters that the frustrations kick in.

;well said Andrew you are spot on with your comments I see he has bought films of other forum members so it may be just me

well this guy has bid for a film and won it sent him an invoice just see now if he pays for it

well ian has bid for a cartoon and has just paid me
