The exact same thing happened to me with an SSC item! I've relisted it for the third (and quite possibly final) time but I've required immediate payment as a BIN. I've never had that happen with any other item, but twice on this same one...

I've relisted it for the third (and quite possibly final) time but I've required immediate payment as a BIN. I've never had that happen with any other item, but twice on this same one...I vaguely remember hearing something on here last year sometime where there was an Ebay seller that would use the BIN option on SSC items and then not pay. Doing so would tie up your items for at least a week while you wait for a case to be opened and resolved, giving her less competition when selling her own items.
Omg..I can't believe how many people have been affected by the SSC bandit. And what further worries me is EBay's lack of doing anything about it, if it has been happening for years Surely, it has been reported numerous times.Does anyone know the sellers ID for which whom they believe is doing it? It makes you almost want to open a dummy account and return the favor to her.

It makes you almost want to open a dummy account and return the favor to her.She has so many many IDs that it is truly impossible to keep track of them all (at least the new ones)- and it appears she knows how to scramble or change her IP address. She also appears to have a three or four IDs that she builds up good feedback with- and uses as a seller account, or to buy things that she actually wants (which she even sometimes pays for). I don't know the current ones, but some old ones include Magicforesttreasures and berryprincess. More recently she seems to be using ID names that are VERY close to the user names of some of the long-standing trusted SSC folks... So we know she is someone who watches the boards and the facebook groups. We also know she has come to at least a few Strawberry Shortcake conventions. This is kind of scary for some- because she has a reputation for jealous, retaliatory internet stalking that can go on for years. So nobody wants to antagonize her- and really can do nothing but report her activities to ebay who repeatedly does nothing. We also don't think that she is necessarily doing it just to drive up her own sales- it really appears that she is mentally unstable and just can't help herself. I think she is obsessed with bidding because she generally does not use the BIN- even though that would cause just as many problems if she did. Anyway- sorry for the long rant, but she has really caused a chill in Strawberry Shortcake collecting/trading/selling/buying.
