People Bid but Don't Pay

Hi,

It is happening too often that people bid and the winning bidder does not end up paying.

Possible solutions (my suggestions)
1. Ebay Should allow only member you have a feedback of 10 or above to bid.
2. Ebay should charge a small amount eg Rs.150 to bid and if the bidder wins, that amount is deducted from the total, if he does not win, the amount is refunded and if he wins but does not pay up, that money is give to the seller. This way people will think and bid and not just bid.

Ebay should find some solution to this. It is becoming a nuisance.

Only high value auctions are good on eBay India. Low value items tend to end up with a non paying bidder. Auctions are good on international sites of eBay.

"Why do you sell in auction format, what is the big fun in auction format. Sell only in "buy it now" format and enjoy a peaceful life.

You are selling on ebay to make money or grab attention, you decide.

If you have good quality material at a good price point then there is no one on ebay who can stop you from making money. The choice is yours.
