You can restart the auction or declare the next highest bidder the winner.

That is assuming next highest bidder still want's it.  They could have moved on since they did not win.  So really this situation could be different in a lot of cases.

Was the winner a low activity account?  Or what kind of account are we talking about?  As you can prevent some by saying if under "X" level contact first before bid.  Prevents a newbie account from messing up a auction.

But there is not much you can do to hold someone to buying if they decided not to.

Hello,

I started an auction over a week ago. The auction is over since a couple of days but the winner does not pay and does not respond to my private messages although he is online every day. What options do I have? Restarting the auction or is there another option? Thanks for your advices.

Maybe he decided to not take the thing that you are selling anymore , but it's not really very polite from him to not respond . What you can do now is take the last Bid (the one before the winner) and consider him as the new winner of the auction , if there isn't any you should make another auction .
