A flame about this high! but seriously...I sell items that have an expiration date , there fore the longer a customer takes to pay the shorter amount of time THEY have use the stuff. I got a bidder who won about 7 auctions 1 around the 1 of the month and the other six a few days later....got the paypal for the 1st auction just a couple of hours after auction ens and mailed that day. Then I got a nuetral feedback from them on the 1st auction saying short expiration date.... dissapointed....then i noticed that they hadn't paid for the other six so I emailed asking if they had gotten my EOA and thye responded with yes will be sending paypal monday...monday I didn't get JACK of course.emailed agian tuesday and never heard back so I emailed again last week and the bidder now wants items with LONGER expiration dates than the ones in the auction they won!!! I explained to them why this wasn't possible and that the longer they waited to pay the items might well be expired by the time they get them. Anyway they finally paid today 21 days after auctions end and I am pretty sure I am getting a neg coming just by the attitude of the bidder, I would like to point out that my auctions clearly state that the items have 30 days untill they expire, from the auction close date. So this bidder is most likely going to get her stuff allready expired.....anyway I was thinking since I am going to get negged most likely anyway since I had the nerve/gall to insist they pay, I was thinking I should wait 21 days to ship it! since they took 21 days to pay......whadda ya think?
