Seller has .. "sold it to a friend instead."

Bought item, paid instantly, and recieved this message from seller:

Sorry I just went to take it down and it's told me it's sold.I'm really really sorry but a mate bought it off me private sale.Once again my apologies..

 Seller has done nothing else. No cancellation of order, no refund. 

It seems my only option is to cancel the order on my end, but I feel that would be the wrong move as it makes it seem like I have changed my mind about an item.

The alternative of waiting for delivery date to come and pass so I can finally get someone living from eBay involved does not seem like most optimum move either. 

 

Advice?

You can't cancel, only the seller can do that.  If they don't cancel and refund your only option is to wait out for the end of the ETA, and open a case with the MBG (money back guarantee).
