eBay Relistings?

Non paying bidders are apparently fairly common. I've dropped out of auctions only to see the item re-listed. At least 2 sellers I follow then will publish the handle of the non-paying bidder - for whatever good that does. Both of these sellers I regard as honest and legit.

You'd be (horribly) surprised at how many "buyers" turn out to be performing missionary work in Nigeria and in desperate need of a vintage gold watch to carry out their work more effectively. I've had two sales cancelled by eBay before I even realised the item had sold ... and probably 4 or 5 others that I cancelled after trying to contact the buyer before despatch.

I couldn't bring myself to accept the offer.

A wise decision.

As in "I can't ship the item until I have your money in my account"?

No... just due diligence - checking email details and asking them to confirm the details that I can see, like the shipping address linked to a PayPal account. If a buyer doesn't know where he's supposed to live, it's a bit of a red flag.
