eBay Seller Canceled My Purchase
« 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.

Oof, will keep an eye out, thanks for the heads up!

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

If they wanted more money for it they should have started the bid higher or placed a reserve price on it.

Absolutely appalling, we've all had auctions go for lower than we were hoping for but that's the risk you take when you run an auction! >_< Thanks for the heads up, will keep an eye out for them.

I just got off the phone with an eBay representative, and the seller has been reported for fraudulent selling practices.

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.

Update: I'm now a Karen because I reported her to eBay. Avoid this seller.

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.

It's not your fault she couldn't be arsed to set reserve bids. The only Karen around here is her.

She better shape up, or she's going to get her sorry hiney banned from eBay.
should be perma-moderated

Thanks for reporting them! I feel like too many sellers get away with this sort of thing these days since eBay keep making it harder to report and such.
