I cancel unpaid items 60 minutes after they order but don't pay. On my listings, I click a little box, the box that states, "Require Immediate Payment for Buy It Now." What part of that doesn't eBay or the buyer understand? I don't see a seller agrees to wait four days box! I use the "Problem with the Buyers Address" reason to cancel the order since in my opinion, an illiterate deadbeat bidder lives there, and to me, that's a problem. It's bad enough Mangled Payments takes days to do what PayPal accomplishes in 30 seconds or less. I sure don't need eBay and a deadbeat tying up my assets for eight days. Anyone else find this eBay "feature" not only contradictory but ill conceived?

If you use templates, you can eliminate that. Ever since eBay has been messing with the best offer feature, etc. I have used templates exclusively...never had an issue.

If you have immediate payment required checked, it shouldn't sell until they pay.
You might check and make sure it hasn't been turned off.
A couple years ago, I had an order that the buyer didn't pay right then and checked and it had been turned off.

It's checked Ken, every time. The other one eBay tries to get away with is turning on that irritating Global Shipping Program button. The hosers held my funds for an item lost AFTER acceptance in KY and held my funds because the buyer opened a case. No more of that Bovine Scatology!!

None of your listings show IPR when I checked.
If you overuse that reason you can be reported and lose selling privileges which sounds like you need to.

" Tax Collected in PA Only" shown in the listings. Any state that collects tax, which are most, buyer pays tax to the state the item is sent too automatically when payment is made and you pay fees on it, along with shipping and item cost.

Check (no pun intended) it again to make sure. If not, do a mass edit to add the feature. I doubt you want to click on each one to do it, you can add it all at once...

I'd recommend the bulk edit that @Anonymous has shown you... but I'd check 'Add to all', in case it's dropped off some listings.

I noticed that you have "or best offer" on some of your listings. FYI, if an item is sold by Best Offer, eBay can't/doesn't enforce immediate payment.
So if immediate payment is important to you, don't use best offer. They are not compatible with each other.
