Received angry email from seller, because I retracted my bid

[plum993]

With 78 bid retractions in the last 12 months against your profile it's hardly suprising a seller is angry.Bid retractions can ruin auctions wasting sellers time and money.

Invalid bid retractions can be reported to ebay by sellers.

Valid reasons accepted for retraction are as follows:

• You accidentally enter a wrong bid amount (for example, you bid £99.50 instead of £9.95). If this occurs, re-enter the correct bid amount immediately.
• The description of an item you have bid on has changed significantly.
• You cannot reach the seller. This means that you have tried calling the seller and the seller's phone number doesn't work, or you have tried emailing the seller and it comes back undeliverable.
