In regards to the "I have not paid" poll, I thought it would be interesting to post how many non-paying bidders you receive out of every 100 items you've sold.

I receive approx. 2/100.

On average its 1 in 37 sales, so thats somewhere closer to 3 in a hundred for me....

skeety - you are referring to negs, I think the question was about non paying bidders? Or have you only had 17 non payer bidders out of all those sales!!!!!!

Depends on the items!

Some areas are more prone to NPB than others.

Overall, 1 out of about 50 or so.

HOBBIES........5 out of 15 last time!

We have about 10 people blocked from bidding, all from hobby auctions!

I HATE listing hobby items..........

soldat2 it's funny you say that it depends on what you are selling. That is so true!

I've probably had about 20 out of 1000 or so auctions. I delete them from my database after I collect my FVF. I would guess that I've filed alerts on almost three times that number.

Hi,

Mine is 2.5 per 100
I think is OK. I don't give it to much importance.
I preffer to spend my time listing the stuff again, or listing another stuff

Best regards
Jose

I just went through my 100 most recent autions.

5 were NPB. All were eventually NARUed.

And #101 (right after I stopped counting) was also a NPB, LOL!

The number of NPB's I've been getting has been steadily on the rise over the last year.
And final auction prices for the same items
are down at least 50%.
