I listed a mobile phone for a mate as a favor & its caused nothing but hassle!! 
listed it with buy now option - some nigerian bought it then once I abused them promptly became no longer registered to ebay
Listed it again.......3hrs later another nigerian bought it
Hello seller,
Thanks for the advert and i will first want to know if this item is in good condition and if yes i will want to send it to my friend in Nigeria that was attacked by armed robbers on her way to work,she called me to tell me that she was robbed of her gold wrist watch,chain,money and phone and was beaten up and now she is in the hospital but i told her not to worry that i will send a phone to her soon because that is how we could communicate and she is a very good friend of mine,i want you to know that i will be paying GBP 200 for the total cost which will include the shipping and insurance cost to Nigeria via DHL express or parcel force so that she can get the phone fast as she is not very happy now and am not also happy because of her state,so i will want you to please do this big favour forme and i will be very grateful.I hope you understand and i will need your full infomation so that i can make the payment via Paypal,Postal Order or bank transfer immediately cos i want the phone to get to her very fast so please that is the reason why am paying such an amount for the item to be ship fast.i hope to hear from you soon.God bless you and your family.
Thanks.
 Yeah okay
Listed it a final time, removed buy now & put a note that people with under 2 feedback will have there bid removed!!
Auction starts going well few people are bidding - comes to the last day & its reached what we were after....then with about 3 seconds to go someone bids with 0 feed back & only registered that day. Im fumming so without much thought send him some abuse calling him a smelly nigerian etc
I then (again without much thought) offer 2nd chance to next highest bidder.
I went into my hotmail account hour later and the bloke who won has paid me 110 by paypal & bloke I offered 2nd chance to has also accepted & paid £106 to me by paypal
So now im left with 2 people expecting a phone, been charged twice for paypal transactions, 3 listing fee's & 4 finished item fee's & Ive not got a clue what to do 
Fucking ebay Not even my phone

That would only get me in a bigger mess than im in now
I have 1 phone, 2 people paid for a phone, £216 in my paypal account & about £20 in fees

Sorry but that really made me laugh
The legit buyer with no feedback is probably thinking why am I a Nigerian

you need to open a dispute against the non-paying bidders (nigerians) you will then get your money back for your listing fees etc, in about a week.
