I just checked and both of his userids are still operating. I had been under the impression that if you received 3 separate non paying bidder strikes you would get suspended but maybe rule this has changed.
I have blocked both IDs but who knows if he will come back with another userid. I will phone Power Seller support on Monday and see if there is anything they can do. ----- Original Message ----- From: luminita hascalovitz To: MoPo-L@LISTSERV.AMERICAN.EDU Sent: Saturday, February 18, 2012 8:04 AM Subject: Re: [MOPO] A Word of Caution to EBAY Sellers here -- Our Insane Greek Buyer is Back! Hi All, I was also a victim of this guy under his proficient911 ID. He stiffed me on three of my auctions and I filed NPB claims on all. I am currently re-auctioning those items. Just can't believe he is still an eBay member in good standing. Does anyone know exactly how many non-paying bidder strikes it takes to be banished?

To: MoPo-L@LISTSERV.AMERICAN.EDU Channing posted the note below about a non paying buyer who is using two different useid's and who appears to have failed to pay a number of MoPo members. The userid's are proficient911 and panosnatalia1968 I filed Non paying Bidder claims for 9 items totalling more than $100.00 and didnt receive a response from the buyer. These claims have now been finalised and I have been refunded the commissions but I see that the buyer is still registered. Just curious as to whether everyone else followed up with the non paying bidder claims because if that was done then the bidder should have been suspended by now.

I just got this e-mail through EBAY about an item I sold to: panosnatalia1968 "I'm really,really SORRY,! Please,understand the economic collapse of Greece is inevitable, and cancel the transaction. Forgive me for all the trouble I caused you, but,unfortunatelly, I am not capable of paying you. Money is so tied, and I foolisly got carried away with this item. I'm not a crook or a rogue trader. Just a simple joe, who made a mistake. Thank you, and please (again) I'm deeply sorry, so I expect your leniency. God Bless..." Be sure and put him on a blocked bidder list.
