Title: eBay Seller Canceled My Purchase
Post by: starbritesprinkles on January 15, 2024, 06:31:04 PM: This auction is ended, so I believe I can post it here. I won this MOC Baby Starbow earlier today, and the seller immediately canceled my purchase. I messaged to ask them why, and they said that it ended too low for them and they would rather keep it. It is now relisted at a higher BIN price. Exercise caution if dealing with this eBay member.

I would definitely give them a negative review and contact eBay/PayPal for the incident.

Post by: DracoKat on January 17, 2024, 04:29:14 AM: it makes me sick how greedy people can be. Auction is auction, you get what you get unless you put reserve or start at your lowest accepted offer. You can't cancel and relist because you aren't happy with the price.
Many times I've let items go and I wasn't too thrilled with the price, but I think, if the other person is happy to have it in their collection and is not a reseller, then that's all that matters.

Good for you starbrite! That seller needs to learn that if an item is paid for, they can't screw over a paying customer. What shameful behavior. That person may soon find themselves bereft of customers at all.

She better shape up, or she's going to get her sorry hiney banned from eBay.
