Hi, won an item that I had had 2 offers declined on - won item for less than offers. now seller has cancelled??  Is this allowed, does not seem right - clearly wanted to get more for the item but surely that is a risk we take selling on ebay.. Advice welcome. Thanks .

leave feedback to reflect your experience - seller refused to honour transaction and refuse a cancellation request if you get one.

Just to add to the correct advice given,  should they send you a cancellation request citing ....  'buyer requests to cancel'  this would refund their seller fee ,  and not give them a defect on their account.

You could then,  if you wished,    contact eBay CS from the help & Contact tab above,  deny this was the case,   and the seller fee and defect is thus applied.

Not good selling practice and not a very clever seller if he turns down offers, he should have realised that a bid would win.

As said leave Negative Feedback and Mark Down stars. Decline any request to cancel.

Seller will still have to pay the 10% Selling Fee so not a very clever way not to sell, but still pay fees.

This happened to me but there was no request to cancel. An email arrived to say the transaction had been cancelled after the end of the time and I had paid on ebay. The very next day I was notified that I had requested it be cancelled so I am confused. Left negative feedback .

yes, I have had no notification to accept cancellation - just a notification that transaction has been cancelled therefore am unable to leave negative feedback. have contacted seller - reply states item fell off cupboard and been damaged by dog!! will leave it at that but it makes me angry when people do not honour transactions purely because they do not get what they wanted for the item, we have all sold items well below value, thats the risk you take with auctions on ebay. Thank you all for your replies.

I've had this happen to me a few times. But when i leave negative feedback it gets removed
