<p>[QUOTE="Argenteus Fossil, post: 1988683, member: 71478"]I used to sell on eBay a LOT! Not necessarily coins (although I sold a couple), but mostly clothes, etc. Well after a 1 yearish hiatus I decided to sell some DVDs. Out of 8 DVD sales, only 4 paid. The rest were unique bidders (not all the same bidder) and each had 0-10 feedback (1 had 4 FB, etc). 50% pay rate is unacceptable. </p><p><br /></p><p>The way I view it, if you bid for an item and that offer is accepted you should be legally liable to pay for that item and it should be enforced. You can return the item later for a refund if returns accepted was in the listing, but you should still have to come up with the money. This means it is a hassle for buyer and seller alike, not just seller. If I make a written offer to buy a car for $10,525.92, I am legally obligated to buy that car @ $10,525.92. eBay has no problem and doesn't bat an eye to withdraw money from seller's bank accounts to refund somebody in a case, why not withdraw money from buyers to hold them accountable for what they are legally obligated to pay for???[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
