WWYD Non paying buyer

I cant figure out what to do. I have a non paying buyer and the 7 days has elapsed so I can open a non-paying buyer dispute EXCEPT that this buyer has bought from me 1x in the past and paid right away. I dont want to tick her off but she is not responding to my emails. I told her would work with her if she needs more time etc and she is bidding on other items so its not like she is MIA from her computer. Do I open the non-paying issue or continue to wait with no response? She won and paid for other items the same day that my item closed but nothing since..so what would you do?

Once again, getting started

1st Question: how long do previous posts remain on these boards? How do I find my previous posts? 2nd Question: is it true these boards will be eliminated Oct 31? That seems incredibly short sighted, if true. 3rd Q: I thought I had created listing (but were not run yet) as well as shipping info, can't seem to find them now. Although for many the ebay layout/system seems logical, to a newbie the complexity is challenging. I need help! Thanks in advance for any help or advice. I truly appreciate it. Bruce P.S. what do i put in the "tags" at the bottom, keywords?

what should i use to light clothing for pictures?

Hi all, After struggling against photos where the top part of my clothing comes out one color and the bottom another, due to my natural light issues (it's partly blocked by other structures....) Can anyone suggest what to use to light clothing on a mannequin? A photographer on a flight I was on gave me the tip to get a soft box or light box or photo box (?) but i didn't think to ask what kind, what size etc.... so i have found about a bzillion soft boxes on ebay. any clues for what might work best for me? i am thinking a bigger one, but should i have one that includes a light or will i need a separate light or.... Help! thanks in advance for your tips.

20% of my auctions are non-paying bidders with High Feedback Ratings

I'm surprised to find this but about 20% of my auctions result in a non-paying winning bidder. Out of those, 90% of them have a significant (50 or better) 100% positive feedback rating. I'd expect this from zero feedback bidders but I guess this is the Feedback policy in action here. Anyone else having problems with non paying bidders that have significant positive feedback?
