Do the terminate all their accounts or just the one that didn't pay?

look at my prior post, I did state that people can start up new accounts, but again sellers can block people with less than X feedback..

so yeah I would guess they would only terminate the account that didn't pay, but you are going to run out of accounts with over X feedback if they get blocked..

No. You can only block buyers with less then zero feedback last I checked, which is like finding a unicorn or a bigfoot, since it's impossible for a buyer to accrue a negative feedback.

Even if there is a set number, it's completely useless. Most of these clowns that retracts on a regular basis actually have tons of positive feedback already. Is a seller supposed to just block everybody and expect to get bids?

not that easy to get 50 feedback and to get blocked when don't pay on one auction...takes awhile to get the feedback just to get blocked like that and banned potentially from ebay..and yeah you can block people with under 50 feedback if you check....

I wouldn't block everyone, just non legit buyers...if there is a real legit buyer out there that is blocked..he will contact you and pay by paypal in a direct deal and you take off the listing once paid....everyone wins..

also if these clowns have tons of feedback then they must be buying something.(assuming its buying feedback)...not sure what 'tons' of feedback is though......I can tell you every time I have consigned to PWCC I have been paid and they sell on ebay as well....why not just consign it and not deal with the hassle..thats what they get paid to do

I'm curious. How many retractions do you have?

So they only terminate the account that didn't pay. So if they have numerous accounts it really doesn't affect them. That's what I thought, just wanted the expert to confirm it, thanks.
