Hello, all!
I've just recently joined Yahoo Auctions. Had my first set of listing go through this week. (and am happy with the results BTW - 6 successful auctions!).
One of my bidders won 2 auctions. I sent an EOA notice which got returned as "undeliverable". The error message read: "User is over the quota. You can try again later." The address is on Yahoo.com.
I take the message to mean the bidder's mailbox is full?(Is that right?) I will try again later (and hopefully it will work!) but there is no guarantee that they will clear some space or the email will get through.

You are right, their mail box is over its limit - the first thing I'd do is check their feedback - if they have a lot of negatives, I'd wait a day or two, try the mail again, and if their box is still full, I'd surmise that they are a deadbeat, and relist your auction.

Hang in there with Yahoo....this is a slow selling time for all auctions...once you get the hang of the way to sell on Yahoo it can be wonderful....just have to get a Yahoo attitude - and eliminate any eBay attitude!

Thanks for your help, jwpc!
Checked the bidder's feedback - all positive. Resent the email - I'll wait and see what happens. If there is still no response, is there a way of pulling contact info at Yahoo auctions? I'd hate for this person to think I've forgotten about them!
And I will definitely be listing more stuff at Yahoo. Have an abundance of one item that went well with my first listings, so I'll be listing more of those for sure! Lots of great features here too!
