We had over 600 NPB’s in the last 3 months..
We leave a feedback for every person who paid,
with eBay’s new see all pending feedbacks feature
http://pages.ebay.com/services/forum/feedback.html
it’s now pretty easy to see who hasn’t paid...
Please excuse me now ,I have a bottle of Scotch calling me..!

You have to selling a lot of stuff to have that many NPBs. Keep very short accounts, file NPB alerts on day seven if they do not reply and FVF credit ten days later. Make it plain and clear that you want bidders who reply to your emails and pay promptly so you can do your end of the bargain. Neg each and every deadbeat no matter what.

If only a lousy 10 % of all the 600 “ neg no matter what’s”
retaliated with return negs...that would give me 60 ...or 240 a year at this rate..
I’m sure that will help my sales..

I have about one a month.

But I'm running not only MANY fewer auctions than you, but fewer than I've done in the past. Not moving away from selling (which I've grown to love), just trying to phase out eBay. Phase down is more like it.

i have less deadbeats than before,they pay fast via paypal or billpoint,in fact right now i just have one - a repeated customer who sent a check before 9/11.
looking at the low view counts,i am afraid some bidders have just stayed away from ebay,why tempt yourself??
