Default Ebay no pay shenanigans

I don't know how you guys who sell a lot of stuff on eBay maintain any sanity at all. Putting aside eBay itself and its crazy rules and fees, the game playing among buyers is off the charts.

Recently I dipped my toe in modern case breaks. Amassed quickly 10 or 15 modern autographed shiny cards and kept a few, hoping to sell the rest. Out of 10 "sales" I now have 2 no pays. Wtf. Here's my theory, and maybe it's nonsense: I think many people have multiple accounts (we know that's true) and they deliberately sabotage other people's auctions because they are probably selling the exact same card and want you tied up for a while in a no pay dispute where their item is still live. Essentially take yours out of play. One of the guys who didn't pay me had like 1300 feed backs. Obviously the slap on the wrist ebay hits these guys with for a no pay is meaningless.

I'm sure an eBay no pay is no where near the hassle an AH would run into with this nonsense.

If I was a grown man who had to resort to these kind of stupid games to get by I'd be embarrassed to look in the mirror.
