When an Ebay seller backs out...

I couldnt agree more. I "lost" 3500.00 because...like an idiot I outed my winnings before they were in hand



Never again

That was a d-bag move on the outer's part.

I am still confused by this thread. You said in the first post that seller was told by someone that the item was undervalued and the seller backed out of the sale and refunded the money. Later you said the seller had a change of heart and was going to honor the sale. Then you said he backed out again because someone from this site emailed him to tell him what the item was really worth. But he already knew it was worth more from your original post? So why the outrage about the role of an anonymous person possibly from this site. After all you discussed it in an open forum, how could you not reasonably expect it to get back to the seller? I get being upset at the seller but clearly there is something I missed or something unsaid in all of this because I don't get the outrage about the anonymous emailer.

How would you feel after you buy something on eBay, then a jealous low life loser emails the seller and interferes with your purchase. Which in the end means you don't get the item.

I understand that. But he said in the original post that the seller was aware that the item was worth more because someone told him separately. So the seller was already aware.

But he then told the seller that he'd go legal action. So I'm guessing it scared the seller back into doing the deal. But then the person showed him this thread and the seller probably realized that there's nothing the buyer could really do and was bluffing legal action.

I can see how that is a little confusing. When he refunded me the first time, he told me he needed to refund my money because he found out that it's worth more than what it sold for. My initial thought was that someone had messaged him. So at that point, that was when I made the thread to see what type of steps I could make to try and get the bat. Then he messages me and said that he's had a change of heart and if I still want it I can have it for the original price. So I went ahead and paid for it, again.

Then last night he messages me that someone had contacted him about this thread and refunds my money, end of story.

It's really ok. Come to find out the bat had a few issues and even though I got it at a nice price, it wasn't a steal by any means like I thought in the beginning. That's why I can live without it. Like I said, I'm more annoyed at the person who messaged the seller. I'm ready to move on, I was just on fire for a few days, and rightfully so in my opinion.

I got bigger fish to fry :-)

Got it. Makes more sense now. Seems unfortunate on the whole.

I am shocked that this do-gooder has not yet revealed himself.

I kind of remember a thread not very long ago involving a rare back t206... Where the majority of net 54 members seemed to think it was fine for the seller to renege as their buy it now price was too low... How is this any different?

It isn't. Then again I thought that was BS.
