At least this way, someone can't "win" the item, end the listing, and then not pay. With an auction though, the only recourse is to block the bidder. I had a few problems with bidders like that when I was still selling on eBay. It's especially frustrating because you end up being charged for the listing fee and the final value fee, but no payment. You can't get the fees back until you invest more time (i.e. money) to file reports and complaints. It's a major PITA and part of the reason I quit selling there. But I must say, the problems I had were relatively minor and few compared to this "tri-ball" clown. I'm glad he never hit me like that. In most cases, I'd finally get paid, after weeks of emails and finally filing a complaint. Once the unpaid item case is filed, most AWOL buyers who still care about their eBay accounts will usually pay. If you still don't hear from them after filing the complaint, then block them with prejudice. Another thing that is good is posting the offender's eBay handle here so the other eBay sellers can be forewarned. It is obvious that this person is a chronic offender who is not going to stop their behavior.
