The last 3 times I won an auction at the starting price and paid, my win was cancelled by the seller and my money was refunded. One seller explained that the item I won was sold the day before and no longer available. I believe the sellers just couldn't let it go for such a low price and gave a bogus reason to cancel. Is this ok? I put a lot into bidding and following just to have a seller say, sorry. Is there any recourse to holding the seller responsible for going through with the...

@505pilipili You can't force someone to sell something, but you can report him for lying about the reason for the cancellation. On this page select violated policy - https://www.ebay.com/help/action?topicid=4022 then select doesn't want to complete transaction. In the box write 'seller lied and said buyer requested cancellation (or whichever reason he used) to avoid a defect for a seller cancelled transaction'.
