Trying to leave seller feedback for 4 mo. old transaction. Is this doable? Thanks!

I just found out about the feedback system. Finally read the instructions! HA! I would like to leave positive feedback for sellers I purchased from, but it seems like 3 mos. is the max allowed. Can I still do this? Thanks!

What is a reasonable amount of time to wait to receive payment and if not received then report buyer and relist item

My auction ended Monday.  I have not heard from the buyer nor received payment.  It is Friday.  How long should I expect to wait before reporting the buyer and re-listing item?  Is there a set ebay policy regarding this? Thanks for your help

Does blocking buyers really work?

I have a buyer who has not paid and because of the no negative feedback, this repetitive no payer has 100% positive feedback.  In looking at the feedback comments I see that this person has 7 feedbacks in the last 30 days and 5 of them are for non-pay!   If I have a rule that forbids anyone with more than 2 unpaid claims against them in the last 30 days, how was this person able to purchase from me?  I find it very hard to believe that out of the 5 people that were not paid there weren't at... more…
