EBAY HELP - What in the world does this mean?

So I won an auction a few days ago, paid for it immediately through PayPal and received an email from the seller last night that the item has shipped. Today I get a message from Ebay that says ...

Dear Person Who Will Find This Message Confusing,


Please be advised that the following auction:

12345678910 - Lifetime Membership to the Jack Daniels Fan Club

was ended early by eBay. The auction was ended due to the account suspension of the seller.
All results for this auction are null and void.


Regards,
Customer Support (Trust and Safety Department)
eBay Inc


Huh? Does this mean I don't get my item? Can I not leave feedback or have feedback left for me? If the auction was ended early, why didn't they return my PayPal payment? Anyone have this happen to them before? What should I expect and what are my courses of action? Thanks

Arthur

  • I would contact the seller to get his story and contact paypal to see about getting your money back.
    It could be a spoof e-mail or the seller has done something stupid like getting a few too many negs or not paying his bill.
    How was his feedback?

    First, check your messages via eBay to make sure it's not a spoof. If it's there, forward the message to the Seller and ask what the deal is.

    .....but is the seller indeed Naru'd?

    ...Is there a copy of that email you received on your messages page on ebay??

    ...when you become a lifetime member of the Jack Daniels fan Club do they send you a lifetime supply??

  • Yes, I received the message both to my email address and in My Ebay messages. I'll forward it to the seller and see what the story is.

    Seller feedback is flawless .... 2700+ with 100% (technically, 1 neg). Doesn't seem to make sense.

    Lostdart, if in about 3 weeks I suddenly disappear and stop posting you will know that, indeed, they DO send you a lifetime supply. image

    So good, once it hits the lips ... image

    Maybe you should switch to Kentucky Tavern? It's only 10 dollars a fifth here with a 2 liter of Mt. Dew (for mixer). More money for cards! Mike
