Computers eBay question

**Buck** · 10-10-2016, 10:20 PM

I sold a concert festival ticket today on eBay and the guy sent me money via PayPal.

I priced it way below face because the concert is on Friday and I had to sell fast and FedEx overnight (sending tomorrow).

6 hours later he sends a message saying "I'd like to cancel this order please"

Because of the lack of time left for me to get this out to someone I'm inclined to say no, you already paid me, and took my listing offline.

Am I in the right to do so?

Absolutely

Too bad guy

**The Franchise** · 10-10-2016, 10:27 PM

Yeah. Too bad for him. He owes you money.

**Buck** · 10-10-2016, 10:27 PM

I already have his money.

I'm just worried about my 100% eBay rep taking a hit because this guy has buyers remorse.

88TG88 · 10-10-2016, 10:31 PM

eBay asks you if you if you accept refunds before posting the listing, if you put no then you're set.

**Buck** · 10-10-2016, 10:36 PM

I put returns not accepted. I haven't shipped it yet so I don't know what the rule is there. He just sent me another message saying he can't make it. Maybe in the morning I will tell him I'll post it again and if someone buys it by 3 pm then I'll let him off the hook.

Idk the legality of that. What kind of person pays $400 and renegs?

**DaneMcCloud** · 10-10-2016, 10:40 PM

You're screwed unless the guy is nice.

PayPal changed their policy last year. Buyers have 180 days to reverse purchases, for any reason.

Good luck.

**Buck** · 10-10-2016, 10:44 PM

I ****ing hate eBay. Now I remember why I stopped using it.

**Buck** · 10-10-2016, 10:49 PM

I thought that when I listed it it said I was covered under PayPal Seller Protection.

Whatever I'll deal with it in the morning. I just don't want to be hit by the PayPal fees. If I have to return the money back to the guy he's paying the fees.

You can chose not to do returns, not refunds. I know Ebay/Paypal pretty well and you are better off relisting and moving on. When you refund him the paypal fees are a part of that refund so you won't be out the Paypal fees. if you go ahead and ship them the guy will probably screw you over and say he received an empty package or something then you are out the tickets and money

No.

As I posted earlier, buyers now have 180 days to file a claim.

PayPal, as a seller, sucks.

Saying "No Refunds" is meaningless.

PayPal will take the money from your account if a file is claimed, period.

At that point, it's all on you to prove that you are entitled to get your item and money back.

All of the rules have changed. eBay sucks as a seller.

Yes the OP said he selected "no refunds" but its actually "no returns". He hasnt shipped the item yet so "no returns" is meaningless. Even if he ships it the buyer can screw him over which is what you are saying.
