Contact Potential Buyer ?

jennycattifer — Wed, 04 Feb 2026 11:55:27 GMT

Someone left an offer on an item I have for sale, that had I seen it would have accepted.

I would like to albeit belatedly, get in touch and if they are still interested offer the item to them, but cant find a way to locate them.....anyone know if there IS a way to do this. ?

Thankyou

On the original message click on the buyer's username ID, their profile will show top right a link to 'Contact Buyer'.

Or, in the original message from eBay re the offer , reply to them there, explaining if they are still interested the item is still for sale to send the offer again through Best Offer and you will accept.

May be best to manage the above from a laptop / PC and try Chrome that seems to work best with eBay.

Forgot to say, the problem is I never received a notification e mail about the offer. May be that I had not specifiied a minimum offer but tbh cant remember now. 🙄

In your eBay messages do you not have a message from the buyer for that offer? Message should be there unless you deleted it.

Look through your emails ( Bin? ) too for that message.

You can look at your item to see if you put in a minimum offer, just click to edit and look through the details.

If you know the interested members ID you can find them here https://pages.ebay.com/services/forum/feedback-login.html

Thanks...no I didn't receive a message about any offer, checked spam etc.

It's ok, no worries....I have sent an offer to all watchers and maybe the person will see the attached messaged explaining that I missed their offer and come back to me... J
