file a non-paying bidder report on ebay and resell the item.

It's only been 3 days though (or probably close to 2 or 2.5). You can ding 'em for poor communication skills, but unless you stipulated in your ad that you required payment sooner than 3 days, eBay isn't going to take the complaint seriously just yet. They might have bid and then left town for a week.

You're probably going to have to give them a week minimum, especially if you didn't stipulate sooner in your lsting.

He's correct, you'll have to wait a week until ebay will even let you open a non-paying bidder complaint against the "buyer".
