Buyers have 4 days to pay before you even think of opening a dispute and most good sellers allow 7 days. Do NOT offer for 2nd chance until you have resolved first sale or you may end up with 2 buyers and get negative feedback.
If the buyer doesn't pay, you should close the case in the Resolution Centre and request a final value fee credit. You must do this within 36 days after the listing ended. If you haven't closed the case on the 37th day, eBay automatically closes it, and you don't receive a final value fee credit.
