They seriously cannot do this once an auction has ended and you have bidded for it for that price they cannot just relist it if they wanted more for it then they should have started the bid at the price they wanted this makes me so mad I am an ebay queen totally addicted and have had to put up with idiots like this before Please dont let them get away with this by the way what sort of pram was it, was it an expensive one??? what is their problem?????
OOOh Squidipa. No way should you give them a mutual withdrawal. If they wanted a higher price then they should have put a reserve price on it at a level they were happy with. Obviously it is not worth as much as they think it is, cos on ebay it is only worth as much as someone is willing to pay. In this case $40!!
As everyone else says, contact ebay and draw on the rules and regs as necessary. The cheek of it!
She cant do that! Its a breech of contract. I would send her a reply back saying that you are contacting ebay in regards to this as you feel you won the item fair and square.
I would also tell her that if she wanted a higher price then she should have put a higher reserve price on it.
My DP, is an e-bay nut, and he says.
If you bid on an item it's a legal binding contract. You bidding on that item, legally binds you to buy that item for the price you bid on it.
The only way the seller can change the auction price is by adding in the postage cost, if it's not specified on the listing.
They can't just change their mind, and go "ooh, i want more money" unless of course there is a reserve price, and you haven't reached their reserve price, which is clearly stated at the top saying "Reserve not met"
Which is normally only applicable to cars.
I would reccomend, contacting e-bay authorities, attaching a copy of the e-mail received plus a copy of the receipt from pay pal you would of gotten after transferring the money.
You are not required to pay any more money than you have already, assuming this was full payment including postage fees, etc etc.
Hope this helps and good luck, feel free to PM me if you need any more info
Contact ebay, i wouldnt even contact the seller. The email was wrong and inappropriate i would be easy to get into a slangin match just let ebay know its their site and rules and their job to enforce them
i am pretty sure by now she would know i have paid via paypal and she has not emailed me as of yet. Last night someone placed a bid on the relisted item so now it gets even harder to sort out. I have decided not yet will i contact her ill just wait and see what happeneds.
