What's with Non-Paying Bidders?

I sold a Jackie Robinson card for $245.00, then the guy took a week to respond, (at the time I did not accept PayPal which was clearly stated in my auction) and he starts giving me a hard time about not having Paypal. He states that "I can't make payment unless you take PayPal" so I give an inch and tell him to make payment thru my wife's account. 1 week later still no payment and I see he is bidding on and winning other auctions. I file a non-paying bidder (the guy had 4 feedbacks)with ebay and he answers saying that payment is on the way. One week later still no payment so I relist and go to leave negative feedback and he is no longer a valid user. Bottom line is it took a month to sort thru all the junk with this guy but after relisting card it sold for over $300.00. What a pain.....
