Hello everyone. Just going through our month of June. On ebay we hit a all time high with non payers. Close to 15%! We do run on other sites to and hitting 10% on those auctions. How is everyone else doing? Seems depressing to actually see someone win a auction and then never pay.

My NPB rate for the past 90 days is running only about five percent. This includes recent pending auctions, although I included in that five percent one pending auction that I have a bad feeling about. Percentage-wise, I'm doing pretty well - the real kicker is that most of those NPBs are for my pricier auctions.

Some low, but noticeable, percentage, enough to make a lot more work than it's usually worth. Then I'll get email about the person's personal crises that makes me feel guilty for simply asking to conclude the deal...not that this is news to anyone reading this board.

Under 1% for me. I suppose a lot depends on what you're selling and who your buyers are. I'd hate to be selling NSYNC merchandise.

Less than 1/2 of 1%. The two recent one that were NPB were buy it now auctions. Don't know why that increases the odds but seen an article saying it is a concern on buy it now bidders since high percentage don't pay. Must be a different class of people.
