    Accepted offer for item but asking only for pick up - buyer paid but no reply
                     

    Summary: pasqualestio discusses a situation where they accepted an offer for an item, but the buyer, who paid, is not responding and is only willing to pick up the item. repentatleisure1952, davewil1964, and other participants engage in the conversation, likely offering opinions or advice on how to handle the situation. The thread features multiple responses from pasqualestio, reflecting ongoing engagement with the issue.

    Hi,

     

    I listed an item. Someone made me a low offer.

    First I sent a counter-offer explicitly asking for pick up only

    (I said "I can sell for X but only if you pick up at ...").

     

    The buyer counter-offered again without messages.

    I replied with the same amount they asked without accepting the counter-offer and I asked again if they were OK to pick up in person.

     

    They accepted the offer but still without any message...

    I contacted them separately again asking only for pick up, but still no reply.

     

    If they don't reply, can I cancel the order without any problems or fees?

     

    Thanks

    UPDATE: the buyer finally read my messages, apologised and accepted to cancel the order.

    Cancel using 'problem with buyer's address'.

     

    You will get your fees refunded and be able to relist.

     

    Don't forget to block the time waster.

    Apologies for the delay. That item was listed with a shipping price. I guess the buyer is expecting you to ship the item...idk. You could do as davewill suggested.

    Offers do not include the postage costs that are shown on listing. So the buyer is expected to pay the offer price plus postage and ebays fees will be set accordingly. The listing has no means for pick up to be selected and requesting such via message means nothing. Don't know why you would want pick up anyway, arranging suitable times and locations to suit both parties and mucking arround with collection codes!!

    Thanks all. Yes, my original post is for shipping, however the buyer made me a very low offer and I already bent my expectations. They have the freedom to counter-offer any time they want, but the seller also has the right to review and offer new conditions in case the deal is not OK for them.
