Give us more specifics and the answer if probably easy. Most auction companies like Snap
have a credit card on file, or you need to set up credit in your account in advance. Also, how
would you know if another person did not pay at Snapnames?

if i am in the auction i can see he paid or not.

think that i backordered XXX.com and win by $60.
and i did not pay. what will happen than to me ?

and what happens if there is not a 2. bidder.

If there is no other bidder you get the domain right away, without the auction, otherwise there is a 3 day auction.
If you won the auction and didn't pay they give a few days to pay (I think a week or so, don't remember exactly), you can pay by paypal too.
If you don't pay during that time they should auction the domain again and they send a few big guys to beat you up

I also bid at Snapnames, but I don't know of anyway to see if the winning bidder has "paid" for his domain.
I would assume that in a case where someone does not pay, then Snap might contact the second
bidder and offer them the domain.

For those that don't pay, I would assume Snap would cancel your account unless there were
some very unusual circumstances. A bid is basically a legal agreement to buy.

you won't get a xxx.com domain for $60, so dont worry

If the person hasn't paid yet you'll see the domain in pending orders with payment processing, when it's paid you can see it in your history

Well i have 2 payments pending in my pending orders going back 6 days already, and i dont think the buyer has paid yet (therefore the pending status).

One is fug.com (@ 17k)
Another is naz.net (2k)

I was the second one to bid 2k (same amount) and therefore lost to the other guy, who hasnt paid yet (been 6 days on that one atleast). I wonder if th guy does not pay, do they automatically charge me and have the domain on my name , or do they hold a second auction????
They dont make it clear anywhere either.

They can't charge you if you didn't win, I think the domain will go to auction again, but you can email them, their support is usually pretty quick
