I have finally caught up with all the pre-orders and have decided to put some pinballs on ebay. Although I have sold a few I have had to re-list many pinballs due to customers bidding on my items and then not responding. I find this not normal as I have sold many other items on ebay without this kind of problem. I smell something funny going on.

Here are the Fake Unresponsive Bidders.

I used to ask for zero feedback bidders to email me once they made a bid to signal their intentions and to show me they were genuine. If they didn't I would remove their bid the next day. It didn't bother me if they were the highest bid or not. This system seemed to work fine for me...

6 fake bidders in 1 hit. Wow how unlucky. You usually get 1 occasionally but 6??? That's just crazy! I see one is from the USA and one no longer exists.

Just a question...Didn't it raise some concerns when you saw the USA bidder?
