Bidder did not pay
The winning bidder did not pay. There are 2 other bidders. How can I go on to the next bidder and sell the item to the next highest bidder?

Mentor2 years agoIf the buyer has not paid by day 4, on day 5 the seller can file a Cancellation with the reason Buyer didn't pay. The seller gets his/her FVF credited, the buyer gets an unpaid strike recorded on his account, no one can leave feedback. Two or more unpaid strikes, and the buyer will find it difficult to bid/buy from sellers who block buyers with 2 or more unpaid strikes. Do you have your Buyer Blocks in place?

As a new seller, you are ripe for scammers. List as fixed price with Immediate Payment Required (you will need to switch to the advanced/business tool for that option, which is located in the upper right corner of the Quick Listing Tool), no Best Offers, and your listing will stay active until someone actually pays for the item.
After the cancellation has been filed, you can then send a Second Chance Offer to any of the under bidders who have opted into receiving a Second Chance Offer. Not all buyers have opted into receiving them.
