non paying bidder

[dgss396]

ebayer hmiharmic decided he did not want to complete his payment on (2) of my items. After 2 weeks of promise to pay he then emails me that he only wanted 1. He had asked for a combined shipping a few days prior which I provided. I could not separate them after combining (tried bu ebay would not allow) and informed buyer as such. He replied "ok, thanks"? I filed a non payment through the resolution center and received my selling fees back today after no reply from buyer. I wanted to leave appropriate feedback to warn future buyers of his antics but cannot. He has done the same in the past (checked his feedback after the fact-66% with a couple positives with a negative note). I have 2 questions:

1. why can't I leave feedback that he deserves?

2. Why doesn't ebay take care of people that obviously do not abide by the rules?

Thanks, I feel better venting!

Sellers cannot leave negative feedback for buyers. There is no need to "warn" other sellers. When you filed a closed the Unpaid Item Dispute, the buyer received an Unpaid Item Strike on their account. Most sellers have their buyer requirements set to block bidders/buyers with 2 or more strikes. When a buyer gets too many strikes, Ebay will restrict their bidding/buying activity.

Place the buyer on your Blocked Bidder List:

Go to your Buyer Requirements, and choose to block buyers with 2 or more strikes on their account.
