<< <i>hi, something came up and i cant afford card now.can you please,relist card?and do a bid cancellation.please respond.thanks, jenny >>



They won the card for$3.34 plus $3.00 shipping,. I can't believe they won't buck up for $6.34. I would love to hold them to it but for that amount I'm thinking I should probably let them walk and not take a chance on being neg'ed.

    Hi Don,

    Personally, I'd let 'em walk. Not worth the aggravation or the time; and certainly not worth a Neg!

    Move on, relist, and let the process get rid of 'em.

    $6 is not worth the aggravation. Bless & release, then BBL.

    I'd ask what came up that you cant afford $6 just out of sheer morbid curiosity.
    IT IS ALWAYS CHEAPER TO NOT SELL ON EBAY

    Thanks guys. I am going to let the buyer walk. Will I be able to relist the card without additional fees?

    There is NO way to force a "buyer" to pay on EBAY.

    BBL them.

    Your choice whether or not to file an NPB to get your FVF back.

    Relist item.

    Again ...

    1. As a seller, there is no way to force a buyer to send payment.
    2. As a buyer, there is no way to force a seller to mail a card.

    Block the bidder and walk away.

    Wish I thought of this first.

    I wonder what the replies would have looked like.

    On second thought, and believe me I have been pondering this almost since it was first posted is
    YES it is worth getting a NEG over. This person entered into a contract when he/she hit the bid button.
    What could be so damn important now in their life that they can't pony up the 6.00?

    I say email them a nasty tirade, threaten them with a lawsuit (make the entered into a contract angle)
    and tell them to complete with their obligation.

    I'm fed up with people not honoring their word.

    Ask them for a mutaul withdrawl.You get your fees back and they don't get a strike.I would go that route because they did let you know.

    I would let it slide. I am surprised they even sent you an email to let you know that they weren't going to pay for it. Ask them to cover your fees and see what they say.

    lol "something came up"

    I wanted Taco Bell

    Hubbys out of smokes

    I found the same card $1 cheaper

    Panhandling didn't pay out as expected

    Tell them ok I'll hold it for you.

    Just kidding. I've not been able to come up with $6 either. When I was 6.

    This is why all Canadian bidders should be blocked.
