Well, here's a real world example from myself, why some sellers may be becoming more averse to doing this.
I filed a non-payment for a couple of unpaid items last year. Right before it wound down, the buyer paid for them through Paypal (before managed payments).
They immediately filed to cancel the transactions under the guise of "Items Not as Described" (I hadn't even had a chance see the payment, let alone to ship them out yet), requested a refund...........and then sent me several follow up messages asking why I hadn't refunded them yet. These were all done in a span of minutes.
I could have shipped anyways, but likely more shenanigans would have ensued. So I cancelled, and ate the Paypal fees (because Paypal stopped returning fees from refunds)
Ebay has made it so easy to cancel transactions.........that a non-paying threat means little to nothing to these people now. They can pay, and still easily get their money back anyways........and then the non-payment warning goes away.
