    @onlytea4me 

    You have to pay for the item, even if it was by "mistake". There was more to buying it other than just hitting the Buy It Now button, you had to confirm it in the next step.

     

    You can try to contact the seller and ask them to cancel the transaction, but they are not obligated to do so.

    I hit buy now and never hit "confirm" or anything else.
