Anyone done this?
I sold a pair of kids skis - highest bidder failed to pay, no comms, nothing.
I've raised a dispute to get the fees back, but I'm tempted to stick their name and address in the listing.
Petty YES
Unlikely to make any difference YES
Makes me feel slightly better YES

Anyone else do this? Pitfalls?

I think the record for me was 3 non paying bidders in a row. A pain I know but just get your fees back, relist and move on. Sellers who have lots of grumbles in their descriptions raise red flags to potential buyers.

I'll second fooman, seeing loads of grumbling and whining publicly puts me off bidding,
I will whine and groan at eBay, especially if the second or third sale doesn't meet the original pricing, as they then send you discount vouchers for buying and selling, which is far more productive.
