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.
Unfortunately, you need to wait approximately 14 days from the non-paying buyer's buy date before you relist the item. This is how it works: In eBay terms, the buyer has 7 days to pay for the item before you can open an unpaid item claim. After you open an unpaid item claim, the buyer has an additional 7 days to pay for the item. After that period of time, you can file for a refund of your listing fees and then relist the item.
