Don't blame the victim. YOU bid on something you couldn't afford. The seller is under no obligation to cancel nor to respond to your requests. YOU are obligated to pay. If you don't, you must take the consequences of YOUR actions/inactions.

The seller is not obligated to respond to your requests to cancel the transaction.

Per Ebay:

When you bid on or buy an item, you're agreeing to the rules we've put in place for our community. A bid is a binding contract that's active until an auction-style listing ends. Once you place a bid, you need to pay for the item if you're the winning bidder.
