Non paying buyers
Is there any recourse for those who make offers which are accepted by the seller and then the buyer fails to follow through and refuses to communicate their intent? This is very annoying. Is anyone else having this problem?

Perhaps send private message to one of the moderators with the persons name. (if you really
would like to see the deal go through). Block this buyers e mail for any more offers.
I am sure it is frustrating.

Re: Non paying buyers
I can honestly say I have never had an issue on AAPK, now eBay that’s another matter. The only time I had an issue w/ someone taking a few days to pay was when he had a daughter in a car accident. Sometimes people have issues. But if they make a habit of doing this, then don’t do business with them and tell the moderator.knfcollector wrote:Is there any recourse for those who make offers which are accepted by the seller and then the buyer fails to follow through and refuses to communicate their intent?

Re: Non paying buyers
I’ve had this happen to me three times in the last six months by different members. I have no problem if they don’t want the item just let me know and/or don’t make an offer in the first place. Mostly I’ve no issues, it’s just the inconsideration of those who fail to follow through or at least communicate their intentions, that’s frustrating. Mostly they are members that have only a couple of posts and infrequent visitation to the site.

Re: Non paying buyers
As per the post above by knfcollector, I had an offer for 3 knives from a member and all offers were reasonable and accepted. No response from the member who made the offer. He hasn't posted but a few times and none recently.
Is there a way to block these guys?

Re: Non paying buyers
I had the same issue a week or two ago. Got an offer, accepted it and that’s the last I heard. He was a member but had no post.
I just cancelled the transaction but it would be nice to block him from any future transactions.

Re: Non paying buyers
I guess it would be nice to be able to block them . It happens all the time on my site . I give them 4 day's then cancel the transaction . Most of mine are made late at night or the early morning hrs
Re: Non paying buyers
I get two or so a week where the buyer makes a offer and never heard from again, I look up their user name and 99% of time zero posts, but one I got today the buyer registered in 2019 with no posts, seems funny, would be nice is sellers could go to their profile and put a non payment buyer counter on them.
