This is a very solid, step by step method that should afford any buyer ample communications on what is expected by the seller without sounding offensive.
I practiced similar to this for years and haven't had a non-paying buyer yet. Remember that buyers who have never done business with you before have placed their faith in you based on your feedback and the item listing in question. From their perspective, there have no guarantees that they'll receive what they bought, and they're thus anxiously waiting for their item in hopes that all goes well.
To disappoint them is to invite neutral or negative feedback at best, or to be faced with fraud investigations or credit card disputes at worst. Buyers, beware: sellers aren't prepared to wait forever to get paid. Though you've won an auction, you haven't fulfilled your contractual obligation with the seller until you have made payment.
Unfortunately, as many sellers know, eBay buyers engage in a number of practices that make life very difficult for sellers. Some buyers bid without having the funds to complete the transaction, simply in the hope that eventually they will. Other buyers either don't take auctions seriously and win auctions without ever intending to pay for them. Still, others are simply slow, forgetting about their bid after making it and not realizing until they check their email days later that a payment is owed.
In any case, in which you can't immediately pay by PayPal at auction close, you should strive to contact your seller within 24 hours to make clear to your seller that you do indeed intend to pay. Then, follow through quickly. If you don't, you may receive negative feedback, and a seller may ask eBay to reimburse them for the auction's selling fees. Several options are available to buyers or sellers that are tired of waiting for their trading partner to perform.
If you find yourself in such a situation, follow the steps outlined below. If your auction is long closed and your buyer still hasn't paid, visit the eBay Unpaid Item Process page to begin the process of having your fees refunded. Note that the process itself takes time since after you file eBay will attempt to contact the buyer directly to resolve the situation. Whether or not the buyer eventually pays, if you feel as though you've had a bad experience with a buyer, always feel free to leave negative feedback to fully inform other eBay members and the person's future trading partners.
If you've paid for an item but have not yet received it many days or even several weeks later, and you have contacted your seller to attempt to resolve the situation to no avail, it may be time to file a dispute.
