No, but if they haven't left you feedback be careful. If you want to get positive feedback from them maybe offer something.

I'm assuming the auction has already ended and you can no longer simply retract your bid and move on.\n\nWhat was the shipping, and was it explicitly stated in the auction?  If the charges were stated and the seller then accurately charged only what was stipulated in the auction, then you're at the mercy of the seller to release you from the contract.\n\nIf the seller is asking for money in addition to all the costs stated in the auction, then he is breaking the rules and you need to inform eBay of the situation.  Sellers may not jack up the price after the fact because they were hoping for more money.  On the other hand, you can't just not pay because you didn't read the auction.\n\nIn all likelihood, though, if it was an extremely low price for the item and there's an outrageous shipping charge, what the seller is doing is avoiding paying eBay's final value fees so he can maximize his profit, and the shipping is actually what he's selling the item for.  Unfortunately, while this is a type of fee avoidance which eBay says isn't allowed, they refuse to do anything about it, even when it's an egregious abuse... so you're boned on that front.  Even more unfortunately, as most sellers who engage in that tactic are ultimately only interested in their own bottom line and are perfectly willing to screw eBay to put more money in their pockets, it generally means they're willing to do the same thing to you, too, so you're probably either going to have to pay, or take the unpaid item strike and the negative feedback which goes with it.\n\nSorry.

Depends on how you paid. Some sellers ask for cashier's checks, money orders, or accept personal checks. In each case, the item appears only in your Ebay account and on any invoice they send you, if they send one at all.\n\nSome sellers accept credit cards directly. In these cases, the line charge will show the total and the seller's business name, not the item.\n\nMost sellers go through PayPal and I feel far more comfortable doing business with them. (There are still caveats, for if you have a deadbeat seller Ebay and PayPal will only guarantee a small portion of your purchase price returned.) If paying through PayPal, the item appears on the PayPal invoice. Your Account overview will show the total for the transaction and to whom it was sent; clicking on the seller's name should bring up the invoice with the item description.

Talk to the eBay seller.\n\nThey might have tips for you or they might replace it.\n\n///

If you have someone elses property and do not give it back, that is a crime in many states ( depends on your state law)  it is called theft by conversion ( refusl to give it back)\n\nDoes not matter if insured or not.\n\n** of course you may just sue them in small claims court for the value of the goods.\n\n** and of course you can do both

probably depends on what you mean. If you sell something you have to make sure the person gets what they bought!!

That depends.  After the complaint is filed, eBay has a cooling off period while it awaits a response from the other party who has also been notified of the dispute.  If this is a dispute involving Paypal, also make sure you follow any directions there for buyer or Seller Protection.  There is a specific window of opportunity, too early and eBay makes you wait, too late and you are OOL.\n\nI assume that this is a buyer dispute with something you bought?  If so just follow the instructions on the eBay Help pages, they will review the claim after the proper information has been submitted.  I am unsure if there is a fee or deductible for these refunds as I have never had to deal with them (as a buyer or seller).

you can repost the item and if you file a form with ebay (its on their site) you wont get charged the fee they take for selling the item.

I have experienced this problem before with Ebay and I believe their general rule is to reply with a "cut and paste" response...not very helpful. \n\nThere was a feature about this on Watchdog, if you missed it check out the website for more info\n\nwww.bbc.co.uk/watchdog\n\nNot that it will help your situation...but you're not the only one out there experiencing this...

Depending on how you paid for the items, you either submit a problem claim thru paypal on their site. They offer a guarantee for up to a certain amount. You can also contact ebay to get the sellers personal information.

REPORT THE SELLER TO EBAY! If you paid with paypal, usually they will refund all of ur money within 7 days to get the seller to contact you. This ebay link should gibe you all the info you need. \n\nhttp://pages.ebay.com/help/tp/inr-snad-process.html \n\nHope this helps and good luck!

not through ebay, if that is your question.  when they ask you to send the money and they will wire you the money or whatever, you send it out to them before the bank realizes the money is no good and takes it out of your account so you have no money and no product.  i would be very careful.

If they won the auction and didn't check out they still are obligated to pay...an auction is a binding contract.....and if they don't pay open an unpaid item dispute and let Ebay try to get them to pay.  If they still don't pay after Ebay tries contacting them, leave negative feedback....and they lose their privledges of leaving feedback for you.

The buyer would've started procedures to reclaim this money, they give I believe 10 days for the seller to respond to the claim.\n\nIf they feel the buyer has an argument they return the money.\n\nYou should've contacted PayPal at the time to argue your case.

Ebay actually has a section on this in the Help area.  \nHere is what they say:\n"Buyers and sellers should contact each other within three business days after the listing ends. It is perfectly fine for you to make the first contact with the seller, using the seller’s email address provided in the End of Auction email."\n"If you cannot contact the seller by email after you purchase an item, or you don't receive a response, you should request the member's contact information and call them. Remember, in order to obtain this information about another member, you have to be involved in a transaction with them."

oh never send it till you get the payment!  send each person an invoice if you have not already done so...  and if you get no response in a few days  , then you   send an unpaid item notice, thru eBay, which they have to respond to within a certain amount of days and if they don't  you will be reimbursed for your listing charge and you can just re-list it... if you need more specific help let me know and I will walk you through it! best wishes!
