Highest bidder on auction item wants to cancel order prior to paying | Selling

I posted a pair of shoes on a 7 day auction on eBay. The auction just ended. The buyer has not paid and is requesting to cancel the order with a cancellation reason of: Order placed by mistake. As the seller what recommendations do you guys have to prevent these types of things from happening? Iâ€™m not sure how you can go on an eBay auction and win by â€œmistakeâ€ Itâ€™s frustrating when buyers do things like this because now as the seller you have to re run the entire auction again for another 7 days which obviously will delay you in receiving money for the item. I almost wish eBay had an option to see if the second highest bidder would take your item at their bid price so that you can still sell your item without any delay. I understand I can either accept the request, which would in turn delay me getting the item sold.. or denying it and making the buyer pay which would just lead to them leaving a terrible review.. Iâ€™m rambling now but what do you guys recommend?
