i listed an item of another seller someone bought from me now he needs to return it? see description

[dakbat-61]

A week ago, I published an ad for a product offered on another seller’s account on eBay, and I put it at a higher price. Someone bought from me, so I bought from the original merchant and put the address of the buyer who bought from me.
Now the buyer wants to return the product to me, what should I do?
How do I coordinate a return? And return the money?
Yes, I discovered that such a process is not acceptable on eBay, so I am requesting a solution now without causing problems

Accept the return.

Have the buyer return the item to you (your address)

Refund the buyer when you get it back.'

Don't do this drop shipping thing again, it is against eBay policy.

From the policy:  However, listing an item on eBay and then purchasing the item from another retailer or marketplace that ships directly to your customer is not allowed on eBay.

What you did is the type of dropshipping that ebay doesn't allow. 

Your selling ideas (dropshipping and pirated videos) are a recipe for disaster!

That's not drop shipping anyway; it's retail arbitrage. eBay allows the former but not the latter.

do you mean not to request a my refund from seller and lose it?

[dakbat-61]

"So my intentions are good".

Doubtful.

[toomuchstuffagain35]

That depends on the reason your buyer is returning it I'd think.

  If you think my answer is wrong please report it to have it removed.

Did you have anything to add to help the OP? or are you just attacking me?

You sure you are not trolling us?

If you purchased the item from an eBay seller, you can return it to that seller if they offer returns.

However, You have muddled the transaction by purchasing an item from someone else.  You have no idea what they sent or what the buyer actually received.

Sometimes learning a lesson has consequences. In this case, you may have lost a bit of money.

Once you get the item back, just put it up for sale on eBay, but not until you have it in hand.

exactly i am just seeking help and asking what to do

i have no idea why people are so aggressive here

we're here to discuss and help each other

[dakbat-61]

yes i swear i am sure

Have the person who bought it from you return it for a refund.

Then when you get it back (if you like) you return it to the person you bought it from for a refund.

Like everyone else, I suggest you don't do this again.

Original seller is big and top rated so i am sure they sent the item i purchased but my buyer is not satisfied and he doesn't need it.

what if i request a return from my seller then get shipping label send to my buyer to ship it back to my seller directly without passing it to me as i live in a different country and i don't have an address in the country where my buyer and my seller live
