What's worse is when buyers post a message to the NPB, but never pay. That
extends it an extra week.

My vote would be 4 days to file a NPB and another 4 to complete it. No extensions
for commenting. If you have time to comment, then you have time to pay.

NPB process.

I realize there a different ways to handle non-paying non-communicating buyers,

I just don't get why I have to wait a week to start it, on behalf of impolite

Recommend changing the post-invoice pre-NPB wait period to three days, or four
at most.

Thanks for anyone's time, Matthew

Like the member the wrote me about a 2 week holiday in Indonesia prevented him
from paying via paypal?

Its two days past the day he said he would pay, i think the 7 and 7 combo is
fine, i agree with no extensions though

Thanks

My biggest problem is the buyer that places the order and never logs in again.
They won't even answer a private email.

I should be able to file a NPB sooner than 7 days.

Have this happening right now. Made an account and purchased an item from my
store on July 23rd. On the order page they asked me to ship to a different address
then was indicated. For a 0 feedback buyer, no way. I asked them to confirm with
me that they would include their "holiday address" as the PayPal confirmed. No
response. Last logged in... July 23rd.

I asked for this years ago and nothing was changed.
If a buyer want to pay with a money order or check the seller knows and wait
more than 4 days.

We totally agree we try to ship as fast as we can and have a clean page

At the end of the week we always have 3 to 4 orders not paid

Really makes it frustrating and you spend a lot of time looking up payments 3
or 4 times a day

Then we pay shippers to help pack and then no payment and now you are out money
and time.

Honestly i think buyers should check out after order is placed and then we can
get right on shipping the packages
unless you have arrangements with the buyer

great point matthew

Your response is kind of funny littlefigs as you are so notorious for slow shipping.
If it is OK for you to take 10 to 14 days to ship - I guess waiting 7 days for
payment shouldn't be such a problem for you.

Well, that’s funny Heidi we are shipping 1-2 days for the past year now! You
bought from us 14 times! I see no reason for snarky comments or starting issues
with anyone this is an open forum about non payment not our shipping times or
our policies. Maybe should should check your facts before saying anything regarding
our shipping times. Lets try and stay on topic thanks!JENNA

Well, your reputation doesn't exactly shed you in a great light, nor does
your vindictive FB behavior. Besides, dropping below 99% on this site is dang
near impossible. I think much of your problems could have been avoided, if you
didn't request payments weeks prior to shipping. Nor should positive FB
for fixing issues be expected, especially with long delays in doing so. For
some reason there's a large group of sellers that feel they are entitled
to positive FB for all transactions, regardless of the extra hassle for the buyer.
Instead of learning from mistakes the reaction is to hurt someone back. The
desire to hurt someone should not be a natural reaction. This leads people down
the path of anger, hatred and ill will for mankind. Nothing positive can come
from it.

For me, anytime I hurt someone* it makes me feel like crap and I have to reevaluate
my choices.

*not physically (I don't do that), but sometimes I say or write things that
are unbecoming.

Oh, whatever... If I placed 14 orders (if I really did - you stop listed so
I don't know how to figure out if I really did) I only left 8 feedbacks.
Sorry, if I overstated my positive feedback to try to give you an "at-a-boy"
for not being as bad as you were with my earlier order(s?). You have had a
bad record and I wanted you to be rewarded for getting better. I still think
that you might not be the right person to criticize others.
I agree that waiting 7 days for payment is inconvenient for the seller. It happens
to me occasionally but I do get paid 99.99% of the time. Being patient is a
very good karma and pays back multiple times. My question was why you take such
an affront to this, given that you have been in a place that you couldn’t get
an order out in 10 to 14 days.
So, whatever………….

Well, I'll tell you what... I'll pay within 24 hours if you'll ship
within 24 afterwards.

No, really - If you want to push NPB up to four days, I can live with that -
I usually pay within hours or minutes after getting an invoice - just push up
NSS to four days, too; maybe add one day for each multiple of "X" lots rounded
down.

And cut down NRS to a shorter time. And especially the time to complete the NRS.
I once had a seller who did not invoice me, did not reply to emails and Bricklink
messages. I had to wait a week to start the NRS and two more weeks to complete
it. So basically buyers have to wait three weeks before they can order those
items from another seller or run the risk of the seller showing up on that last
day and expecting the buyer to still honor the first order.

  Tools for non-so-hot buyer or seller situations should be equal. I think
this principal is critical to avoid something like the wacky world of eBay.

Logically, there may be some exceptions out there; not sure. However setting
equal (and quicker) NPB, NSS, etc. initiation rules, with current communication
rules that allow for added time rightly provides added flexibility for polite
communicators -- buyer or seller -- and not for impolite non-communicators.

It makes sense for NPB and NRS to be the same, but not NSS, unless this means
not shipped, as opposed to order has not arrived.
Both NPB and NRS should come with the right to very quickly cancel, and move
on.
For the NPB, it allows the seller to relist the inventory more quickly.
For the NRS, it allows the buyer to order the same parts from someone else more
quickly.

But since auto checkout (pay while checking out) will solve both the NPB and
NRS, I am not sure how much effort should be going into improving either of those.

Orders not shipped in a timely matter will not be solved with auto checkout.
So maybe focusing on this one makes more sense.

A checkout process where the buyer pays as they check out, will solve this issue.
It will solve lots of issues.

Once all (or most) sellers are using a checkout process, where payment is collected
during the checkout process, I suspect that a large percent of the issues discussed
in this forum will become non issues.

I'm happy to work with people who are polite and communicate about delaying
orders for changes, or for payment reasons.

However for buyers who neither pay nor communicate, I don't understand why
a seller should have to wait a week before starting the additional week-long
NPB process.

I realize there a different ways to handle non-paying non-communicating buyers,
but I for one prefer and appreciate the NPB process -- it helps me, and it
helps our community.

I just don't get why I have to wait a week to start it, on behalf of impolite
people.

Recommend changing the post-invoice pre-NPB wait period to three days, or four
at most.

Thanks for anyone's time, Matthew

Quite right Eileen...
This suggestion and discussion is pointless as once the site progresses to autocheckout
with instant payment, this problem will solve itself for the majority of cases
(particulary the ones with Paypal). Ok, the ones with other payment methods will
remain (IBAN / Bantransfers / cash / checks / etc), but those particular payment
methods always require extra transfer time, so from that point of view it would
be foolish to review the current 'timings'...

Hi there

After dealing every month with 1-2 NPB i now have 4 of These in one week !
there is urgent Need to handle the whole Situation in an appropriate way .

They are blocking sets and pieces worth hundreds of Euros from being sold, not
only at Bricklink but in my physical store aswell !

All buyers of course with 2 or less Feedback Ratings - 2 of them created their
account just to buy a 41999 and a 42030 set - just for fun it seems....very annoying
!

The whole NPB procedure is slow, timeconsuming and inefficient - there Needs
to be a faster way to get my goods back in my inventory for selling them to better
customers -

I'm considering to exclude Zero Feedback buyers from my shop - i have much
more Problems than Profit dealing with them !

Rant over...
