    Seller lied about cancellation

    I made a purchase. Then as I go to pay I received an email that I cancelled the sale. Evidently the seller communicated to eBay that I had cancelled the sale. I was also not given 4 days to purchase the item.  I found the item relisted. I made an offer at the price I paid and it was declined. Do I have any options? I can’t get a live body or how to get around anything because I allegedly cancelled the sale.

    Yes you do have an option. Find another one and move on.

     

    Once the first one was cancelled you could of reached out to the seller to find out why they cancelled it. (may have but post does not say) Assuming there was no communication after the cancellation, why would you want to purchase an item from someone that conducts business the way they did. You decided to try to buy again from the buyer which was cancelled again which is a sign from the Ebay overlords to move on. IMHO

    Of course some items are difficult to find and it is frustrating to deal with sellers like this but save yourself the headache of dealing with a knucklehead. If they reached out to you to give you a reason or responded after the second post, maybe it would be a different conversation but your post does not suggest that.

     

    It is a bummer when items get cancelled but unless you are communicating with the seller, forget and move on.

     

    (this is assuming this is not a post about not getting refunded if paid)

     

    -Good luck
