Charge on account after buyer not wanting to purchase vehicle
Hello Ebay
why have I now been charged for selling a vehicle that I have not sold. The buyer sent an offer which I accepted only for 12 hours later them to say it was a mistake and no longer wanted. Why is it the seller (me) now has to pay a final seller fee and then a cost to relist the vehicle

Mentor11 months agoWhile nothing you can do about relisting fee, you have to cancel sale for non payment to get selling fee refunded.
Best to use a classified ad, no final value fee, and you do not complete the sale until paid. No payment then item continues to be for sale.
