I keep getting people buying stuff in my store and then they don't bother to pay for the item. Is this a new trend on E-Bay? They didn't use to do that. I hope I don't have that this Christmas.

ebay needs to do an Enhancement,,,You place an order,, boom! Debit your credit card or an e bay debit credit line......At least for the PRICE of the item. postage and handling and shipping are another ball park....least you got/get their BID......No more GAMES like that....you place a catalouge order with Wards they pay no attention till they SEE the MONEY!!!!!!!

You can always require immediate Paypal payment for store items. That way it's not actually purchased until the Paypal payment clears. I'm considering doing it.

I'm with you on this Jack! Charge their credit card...It seems to me that lately bidders want to name their own terms! They pay whenever they feel like it (2-3 weeks down the road) IF they even pay. The bidders decide what they want to pay for shipping too! I do like the stealth postage feature that the USPS offers now, no more complaints about the cost of shipping.

It's where the postage amount is not visible to the buyer on the label. If you use paypal, they offer that feature as well since it works in conjunction with USPS.

If you do immediate payment, how does it work when someone wants to buy multiple items? Can they still group them together in checkout?
