Buyer of my item is reselling and claiming they are new in box

I sold a pair of shoes and have just noticed that the buyer is reselling them.  i don't have a problem with this.  What I do have a problem with is that they are claiming they are new in box, never been worn, therefore charging an inflated price.

 

Is there anything I can do in this situation?

Why would you want to?

 

It'll be problems for them when their buyer finds out different.

 

They'll be the ones get the red dot and/or an INAD case opened.

 

Why should that bother you?

 

Keep the link to the re-sale in case they open a case against you, and you need to inform ebay of what they've done.

You could send the seller a message and point out that there is an error in the listing in case it is a genuine error.

 

Otherwise I would be tempted to report to eBay stating you sold this exact pair second hand.

But are you sure that the seller didn't purchase another exact new pair ?

Can you give the item number of the new listing?

I feel bad for whoever buys it from them, as they are not worth that price.  Looking at the pictures of the item, the box is identical as there was a crease/bend in the top corner of the box.

 

I have added the item to my watch list to monitor the sale, and in case, as you say, they open a case against me.

As Lyndal asked, can you give us the new item number please?

 

I can't seem to find it, going on the title of what you sold.

That's why I asked Stawks.....I spent ages looking for it.....even in completed listings incase it had been taken down.

According to ebay search, there are no (Zero),  similar active items to your sold items

Image result for wind up toy pinocchio   Is this a wind-up?

There's no way someone could on-sell those shoes as BNIB.

 

Looking at the OP's pics the soles are dirty.
