Members must pay for the items they win or buy on 4Bike within 2 days of committing to the purchase.

What is the policy?

When a member wins an item, or uses Buy It Now to purchase an item, they must complete the purchase by sending full payment to the seller within 2 days. Buyers must note:

  • The cost of shipping and handling, and all terms that the seller has included in the listing before deciding to purchase
  • Bids can only be retracted under exceptional circumstances

A seller may report an unpaid item if the buyer doesn’t pay or contact them within 2 days.

Managing unpaid items cases

  • Sellers may close the case when a buyer has not paid within 4 days
  • Sellers may be eligible to receive a final value fee credit, and if they relist the item, 4Bike may also refund the insertion fee for the relisting
  • Buyers have the option of appealing an unpaid item if they believe it was undeserved
  • Sellers should avoid falsely reporting unpaid items or they may:
    • Have all credits reversed for the time period in question
    • Lose the ability to use the final value fee credit system
    • Be subject to suspension
  • Unpaid items are considered a violation of our buying policies. All unpaid items are recorded on a buyer’s account. Buyers who have excessive unpaid items, or cancelled transactions, may have limits imposed, or lose their buying privileges.
  • 4Bike will automatically remove feedback from a buyer who didn’t pay. However, if we missed something, sellers can contact us. Feedback may be removed when:
    • The buyer didn’t pay or respond to the unpaid item process
    • The buyer is suspended
    • The buyer’s communication in the Resolution Center undermines the purpose of the unpaid item process and feedback system

Activity that doesn’t follow 4Bike policy could result in a range of actions including for example: administratively ending or canceling listings, hiding or demoting all listings from search results, lowering seller rating, buying or selling restrictions, and account suspension. All fees paid or payable in relation to listings or accounts on which we take any action will not be refunded or otherwise credited to your account.
