As the Decampe Auction Site has grown from its initial small village into a full metropolitan city,an undesireable element has become more previlent in the past months in my view....THE DEADBEAT BIDDER....I am not talking about the ordinary garden variety who bids on a single auction then mysteriously dissappears but I am talking numerous bidders who in a premeditated fashion bid on numerous auctions of various sellers and when the auctions are completed then and only then do they decided what to keep and what to leave.They refuse to communicate and it goes without saying to pay.This is not only a dishonest act but ultimately an act that is harmful to the Delcampe community as well as being a complete and utter waste of time for the seller.Do other sellers out there share my concerns or am I the only one who is effected by this plague of maggots.Also are the various administrators of the site aware of this situation and if they are...are they making any response.I look forward to your responses on this topic.Thanks for your ear!

Thank you for the heads up! Will update my block bidder list with this nice specimen of yours:)

I think that the 3 strikes you are out could be implemented here (for non-payment).
I have the feeling that a lot of bad buyers come here after being boot off ebay.

The problem I have with non payers, is that it makes me loose sales, since what they bought is no longer available to serious buyers.

I have recently put a block on all bidders from the People's Republic of China and will follow up with other blocks for different geographical areas as problems arise.This approach will save me a lot of problems as I can appreciate,Delcampe moves along very cautiously in this area as they tred a fine line between losing income and freeing their site of these deadbeat bidders.

Dear Jim,


By the end of this week, we will start our new daily program. This software automatically closes bad rated accounts. This shows how much it is important to leave ratings to such bad payers. Express yourself through these ratings. It helps the community and my team to detect the persons that gives a negative face to our site.

Of course, we have several action levels. Some accounts will be automatically closed, other will require intervention of our staff.


Best regards, Sebastian Delcampe
