Message:: [QUOTE="Lucille.b, post: 56201, member: 51"]In my experience , buyers....Ahemmm....Bidders like this won't do you any favors , so the less you have to do with them.....the better ! Since there was some communication with the bidder, that "he needed more time" or whatever, it might be worth a try, or Kard could let the open case just play out.  You do have the feedback threat, so one has to make a judgement call.  Just thinking of all the options. Regarding the 2nd highest bidder, if he/she gets the offer out of the blue once the case is closed, I agree, it almost never works. But if you give them the head's up  early on-- "Top bidder is not paying, would you be interested to have first chance at this if it doesn't sell?" They can always ignore that or let you know.  But I would check their feedback first before offering.  If you do offer it, I think it is possible to set the time limit for a yes or no --24 hours, that kind of thing, so won't hold the item up too long.  And one can still do the BIN after that if it doesn't pan out. the 4+4 days, is as follows:  You have to wait 4 days before opening a case, (Kard has done that, I think it is 5 days no payment already), then it is an additional 4 days Ebay gives the buyer to pay.  Wow, I hope this works out.[/QUOTE]
