Has anyone else found a bunch of new buyers on eBay? Most of my auctions recently were won by newbies. One that is making me nervous is someone at the moment who had bid on 5 of my auctions, no feedback, shades. They registered 3 days ago, and have already bid on 180 items!! In the past I think I would have cancelled them, but now, with bidding so slow, (I had 9 autions close last night, with only 1 with a bid), I hate to look a gift horse in the mouth. I know you can get fvf fees back, but listing fees are lost, so lets hope they follow through, for a lot of people!

Yes, I have been getting newbies. It never hurts to check their ID history to see if they changed their name.
My most recent "0"FB bidder signed up Sunday, used BIN last night (hours after my item was listed) and has won about a 1/2 dozen similar auctions at the same time. Yes, I'm nervous.

they could be brick and mortar shopowners on a buying spree,ebay is becoming a great place to shop for store inventory.
of course if they cant sell what they bot,payments could be slow in coming.
thats how some of them get NARU'D.
