I recently encountered a situation with an online purchase that left me confused, and I’d like to hear how others have handled similar issues. I ordered a printer and quickly canceled it after realizing it was for collection. While eBay says the cancellation was declined by the seller, the seller claims to have canceled it on their end. What can I do about this conflicting information?
Has anyone else faced a similar experience with online marketplaces like eBay? How did you resolve it, and what advice would you give to ensure a smooth resolution? Any tips for communication with the seller or the platform itself would be greatly appreciated!

If you can then the seller has not cancelled.

So, reading between the AI lines you bought a printer and then asked to cancel when you noticed that it was collection only?
Have you received any notification from eBay that the seller has cancelled the order? If you haven't, then the order hasn't been cancelled and you may need to wait 7 days and then open an eBay item not received claim.
