✓ When you cancel the sale for non-payment, the buyer gets a "strike". This is a hidden thing, but with enough, the buyer will be removed from eBay.
-- If it has been 4 days (96 hours) and the buyer has not paid, you can cancel the order for "Non-payment".
-- Here is a help page where you can learn more, and you can cancel right here, just click the picture of your item and follow the steps.

✓ This process gives the buyer an unpaid item "strike", and it refunds your final value fees.
✓ You can also block a specific buyer id that you had a bad experience with
