seller canceled my order

[spet8251]

put an item in my watch list, seller then sent a discount offer and i accepted and paid. my order was then cancelled by the seller with the reason being one item mising and incorrect postage, a short while later was sent another message saying item found and it has now been relisted with the correct postage if i want to purchase again. this seems to me that they had just put the wrong postage on and didn't want to sell, they could have at least contacted me first to say they had made a mistake, i have done the same thing once and still sent the item at a loss, is this acceptable to do on ebay dosent seem fair if a seller can just cancel an order without the buyers consent if they are not happy with the price they get,

thanks

Well if it was a watch ,  you have to appreciate ,  the seller wants the correct postage to be displayed, for insurance cover.

If they cancelled incorrectly,  they would still pay a seller fee and gain a defect  for their account,  so may well be out of pocket anyway.

Your decision now whether to purchase at the correct listed price.
