I ship it and take the L.
Then take more when the eBay + Paypal fees come in.

I just take the L, but sometimes I hope the person doesn't pay. Now that the economy has gotten worse I stopped listing things for 99 cents.

Don't put BIN or OBO cause chances are you're never gonna sell the item

Personally, I always look for BIN items first because I can guarantee I win the item without any last second bidding BS/sniping. Also, when I do sell on there,I use the 30day BIN/OBO option. I don't sell a whole lot, but I had success when I did with that method.
