I make pool cue tips to size. Customer bought one but didn't state size. Got message later on from another customer telling me a size. since they are different accounts and both accounts only joined on the day I sold it seems a bit suspect to me . Have tried contacting both accounts but no response. can I cancel it and refund the buyer.?

Yes. Use the reason "problem with buyer's address". It's the nearest we have for this sort of problem. It does not need agreement and won't harm your account.

By the way, Ebay rules are that if you make items to sell you need to sell them on a business account.

Ai says You can set up a personal account for occasional sales or a business account for regular, consistent selling. As I don't sell that many I should be good.

It is possible there is a simple explanation for your two buyers. First buyer without size was a guest buyer, second buyer using a real newly opened account to advise size.

Just a guess as I cannot imagine there would be scam buyers for pool tip cues.

Why no reply on messages to both accounts? It clearly says state size or will send a 13mm,so If the other account hadn't asked for an 11.5 tip I would have done that but he wasn't the account that paid.

'AI' doesn't understand the law or Ebay's own published guidance.
