    Advice advice needed - changed my mind on selling an item .....

    hi

    i changed my mind on selling an item . no payment has been made buy the buyer yet. but the buyer has refused to cancel the transaction out of spite saying he will get me frozen from ebay negative feedback etc. i cant cancel the item because he has to agree. to this day no payment has been made. ebay are charging me £75 fee. this cant be canceled until he agrees. what can i do to get fee canceled . also can ebay take the money out through paypal even if i cancel my debit card. or or close my bank account.

    thanks

    If you have changed your mind about selling something because of the price it sold for, this is the reason eBay now side with Buyers instead of Sellers.
    If you ended the auction early and said it was no longer available (damaged, misplaced, sold elsewhere) you might have had a fighting chance.

    eBay and the Buyer cannot make you send the item, but eBay will get involved with the dispute and you will receive negative feedback for 'changing your mind'.

    http://pages.ebay.co.uk/help/sell/policies.html

    eBay doesn't like sellers 'changing their mind', so you must be absolutely positive when listing items, that you are willing to auction them off.

    If no product changes hands and payments are returned, you will get negative feedback and eBay will cancel the fee's (I believe).

    If the auction has finished, it's final.
    You can cancel an auction before it ends.

    I know I have read several times on here people getting really angry when this is done to them by a seller and I know I would be really angry if someone did it to me so I would expect him to do everything he can to cause you as much aggravation as possible.

    Should have paid the extra for a reserve...

    To back up what people are saying, it has happened to many people on here before having the carpet ripped from beneath their feet or receiving items not as per the description/broken.
    Put yourself in the other guys shoes, you would be pretty pissed.

    As for closing your account etc... seems a bit extreme. If I am honest and you really did not want to sell the item, then accept the punishment you get from eBay and start again.

    BUT, you say he has not made payment yet? If he doesn't make payment within the allocated time period then you win. You will not have to pay any fees (I think) and you get to keep the item with him receiving the negative feedback.
    We all make mistakes sometimes

    this ^
    You know he grew up as a little shitspark from the old shitflint and then he turned into a shitbonfire and driven by the winds of his monumental ignorance he turned into a raging shitfirestorm. If I get to be married to Barb I'll have total control of Sunnyvale and then I can unleash the shitnami tidal wave that will engulf Ricky and extinguish his shitflames forever. And with any luck he'll drown in the undershit of that wave. Shitwaves.
