This bidder won something from me. It's not panic yet because it's only been two days. Anyway, when I first checked her feedback, all was well. When I went to check it again, it was made private. Now, here's what she's been bidding on like crazy:
Should I begin to get nervous? She's from France so I'm not sure what's happening.

Nervous? No, but be sure its a bidpay payment only and you should be fine. Why it went private you should ask them if it makes you queasy.

I've had one of these before. I really think this is someone on a buying spree that intends not to pay. There's a ton of money involved here. Either she's wealthy, came into a big inheritence or just wants to play with sellers. I'm not sure. Seems odd. She hasn't answered my email so it will be a wait and see game.

Hi Cheryl - did you think that perhaps she is gathering stock for a boutique on the Champs Elysee? Her list of items bought are a wide selection of vintage jewelry. And can you imagine what the prices for items like that are in France? Well, that's just one way of looking at it. Sure hope you get paid and all is well.

I wouldn't worry yet. I had a buyer from the UK that bid on many high end items. I think she was buying up all the designer rhinestones sets. She always sent cash, whe answered my EOA notices right away and was not problem. I guess you just have to wait and see. If she is a problem imagine all the other sellers. Just give her a chance, I would.

I definitely would not be nervous. I've seen far, far worse than this in spree buying, amounting to A LOT more money. Check out bidder rozie7 completed auctions as an example. In my experience people like rozie7 and your bidder make good buyers. They're just shopaholics. There are plenty of people that sit and buy 10 items a day or more from Home Shopping Network.

.It's the o feedback new Ebayers that bid on $100,000 plus in their first day on Ebay that make me nervous.
