eBay help

triggerthat · 2 Jul 2007 at 00:10

Hi guys,

I recently sold something on eBay and I don't want to sell the item to the buyer (low feedback). Is there a way to remove the right for him to purchase it? For example, state that the item is no longer for sale or broken etc?

Not really mate unless you wanna face a strike and a neg feedback. As long as you sell through paypal and obtain proof of posting you'll be fine

Can't paypal payment be reversed?

Tell them that due to the low feedback you would like bank transfer or Postal Orders/Cheque....

That's the best idea, although avoid cheque anyway. It can still bounce etc.

you've entered into a legally binding contract, to not sell to him would be out of order

Low (0) feedback or bad feedback?

Just tell him that you will send the goods once the money has cleared into your bank account.

Yeh.. thats the only thing you can do.. but send him a email to see if he says that is okay.. if he doesnt reply.. keep it or sell it on again

Most ebay sellers do this anyway. You'd be mad to send anything before payment has gone through.

Indeed. And paypal usually side with the buyer.

His email response is enough for me to stay clear.
