Today I was a tattletale. I have a bidder who has not responded or paid on ended auction 2/11/01. I filed a NPBA on 3/2/01. I thought I would check to see if this person was still bidding, if not, something could be wrong. In checking that, I find she is still bidding. Then checked her feedback and it was 20 negs. 19 of them since my auction ended with her. Since she was still bidding, I wrote to Safe Harbor and brought it to their attention. I told safe harbor that a lot of sellers and bidders had been suspended for a lot less negs or actions than that. They wrote back and said they had naru'd her. I went in to check and they have. Kinda feel bad about that, but had she not still been bidding, I doubt that I would have said anything about it. My Father always said: Live and Let Live. What would you have done had you seen an active 20 neg bidder?

Don't feel bad. I thank you. I don't want her bidding on my auctions. It's such a waste of our time to deal with these deadbeats. It seems like there are more and more all the time. One less to deal with.

You did the right thing, jeanbee62! That bidder was irresponsible and a time waster.....someone had to stop her! You probably saved a lot of sellers from suffering needless aggravation.

You did the right thing by getting her suspended. She certainly deserved it. But the sad fact is that she will simply re-register with a new ID and be a zero feedback newbie all over again. No 20 negs to warn her next victims...
