Selling on Ebay without getting ripped off
I'm a new Ebay seller. I was wondering if I should put a disclaimer that if I don't receive payment for an item within 3 days of the end of the bid/purchase, that I will not ship?
Is that smart? Would people still buy from me?
I don't want to get ripped off, but I don't want people to be sketchy of me. It's bad enough that I'm a new seller with no feedback since I haven't listed anything yet.

Hi there,
The questions you are asking are answered in the eBay getting started guides for new sellers:

... along with 1,000 other questions you will have during the course of your first sale. :-)
Please read through the basics, and practice by listing a test item just to get the feel of things.
If you have questions that aren't already answered, then please return and I will be happy to help.
One thing I would like to say is that selling as a zero feedback seller would be a VERY unpleasant experience.
How do you get around that? Buy some stuff on eBay! :-) It is easier than you think to rack up 30-100 feedbacks.
Everything you buy for the next month, outside of food of course, check to see if you can buy it on eBay at a comparable price to what you would otherwise spend. Surprisingly, you can buy a LOT of stuff on there that you never thought of.
Remember: EVERYTHING you think of buying... check eBay first.
Good luck, and happy eBaying!
