ebay reports cancellations wrongly

[jmarham]

Why does ebay report cancellations wrongly. Twice I have been reported as a buyer cancelling when in fact

case 1) seller had no paypal account

case 2) item in Poland and seller had no idea when it would be available in the uk

Cancelling is surely better than unpaid strikes?

I am assuming that you paid and had a refund, although if seller had no paypal account they could not have listed in the first place.

Ebay doesn't report cancellations wrongly, they go by the reason given by the seller, if you are advised that a seller has canceled because they say youthe buyer requested it, but you didn't you should be able to decline the cancellation.

Ebay does not have a crystal ball, if seller who is the only person who can cancel, says it is at the sellers request, how are they expected to know any different?
