I had 14 auctions end on 7/29. Of those, I have received payment from only 5. Is it too early to send reminders and so on?

I seem to get about 75% of my payments within 7 to 10 days, and the rest show up within 2 or 3 weeks.
If I receive an email response to my EOA notice, I usually don't send a "payment not received" until after about a month.
If I don't receive an email response to my EOA notice, I usually send a "payment not received" after about two weeks.
The people who bid on my auctions almost always pay (only 3 or 4 non-payers in over 1,000 auctions), so I don't worry too much about it- your mileage my vary.

It's been about 12 days. Not too early to send reminders. 12 days should be plenty of time for them to get a payment to you in some way. After 12 or 14 days you sort of get the idea that they aren't concerned about paying.
I'd rather have a slow payer than a no payer but they both irk me. Any time I have bid and won something I get the payment on it's way pronto. Not everyone feels they need to do that unfortunately.
