I have several non-paying bidders that I sent an eBay Non-Paying Bidder Alert. One of them sent me a response back indicating that they had received the item. Funny, since Auctionwatch.com tracks my sales and I have no record of payment from this person! Another way for a bidder who has no intention of buying an item to back out of an Auction.

this has happened to me several times!! recently a bidder who had great feedback and i had sent many, many warnings too with no response posted a positive feedback for me that said "received item - thanks so much!" -- i have it in my posession so i know he never paid or received it!!! ridiculous.

I had the Oposite Happen to me one week last month here.
I Try to stay on top of things here when I get bids on Items I package and address them right after I send out the EOA notices.
many times i will get the Billpoint or paypal payments the same night or within a day or so of sending the EOA out well it was a week when a good many decided to send checks.
My wife just usually checks with me to ask if I have packages that need to be shipped but she was on vaction and I had to work there was a stack of packages addressed she figured she would just go ahead and take them all out to the post office for a week I received Email from Confused buyers Who hadn't even got there checks in envelope to send to me yet.

Thank you for that cheery note. I think we all forget that the majority of bidders are BUYERS and good people. The few nuts out there make us think that the whole world is out to get us. I appreciated that reminder.
