eBay

This is weird and new to me. I see that a seller had 90% feedback due to one single negative rating and this is the reason

The price of btc went up so you cancelled my transaction. Very dishonest

Bitcoin BTC .25 Direct to your Wallet

Are sellers accepting Bitcoin payments here? Has anyone else seen something like this?

you would have to give a item /listing number to see what you say..

but no..no bit coin payment...most if not all sellers have enough trouble just getting a payment via paypal...bitcoin and such ...if ebay lets that happen...it will certainly be the end...what a mess!

From the sounds of that feedback I'd say the seller was selling a chunk of bitcoin and failed to deliver and the buyer is claiming the reason is that the price jumped significantly after he purchased it.

In which case the seller got a defect for cancelling the sale.

Is bitcoin trading even allowed on eBay?

I think. Do a search of "bitcoin wallet" go to solds and sort by price highest first. People are laying down serious money for it.

Heck, it looks like eBay has even created a catagory for digital currency!

What? I thought it was against policy to sell digital currency.

The transaction was from over 6 months ago so I can't see the item.

Didn't classified ads shut down a couple months ago?
