I posted on my auctions that if you have 0 or poor feedback, and from another country that you can't bid.
I had a sale yesterday, and two hours before the end I had a 0 feedback Canadian bid. I cancelled his bid, and put him on my non bidder list. He wrote me, and told me how much he wanted it.
I told him that I would let him bid, but he had to pay for it today. Plus he had to pay for the more costly shipping of Fed Ex so that I could prove it to Paypal. I never heard from him again.
Now I did end up selling the piece to a guy in France. He has 800 positive feedback. I'm not going to make him use Fed ex.
