If a sale is cancelled post the purchase and no money given back what can i do?

We had to remove this listing from the site and you're not required to complete the transaction. If you've already sent payment, the sale should process as normal and you don't have anything to worry about. If you have any questions about delivery, please check tracking or contact your seller. If you run into any trouble along the way eBay is here to help. Please visit the Resolution Centre to help resolve any problems you may encounter.

This is fine but no Phone or money back

How did you pay?

How long ago did you win?

Has the phone had sufficient time to arrive? Has it been marked as sent?

Where is it coming from?

Have you contacted the seller?

If you payed by a payment method such as PayPal, you have buyer protection.

If you feel that you won't get your phone orn refund, go to PayPal and raise a claim for Item Not Received.

As said, open a case for item not received after sufficient time for the item to arrive.

You have 45 days to the day to open the case so don't miss the deadline to get a refund.

Why do ebay keep writing this rubbish when most of the time, the listings they remove for phones, ipads etc are FRAUDULENT listings for NON EXISTENT  items listed by SCAMMERS.

Log on to Paypal and open a dispute. Escalate to a claim as soon as the system allows.

Beware of spoof/phishing emails you may receive .

Don't open them and don't click on any links.

Run all your spyware, keylogging and virus protection and change your passwords regularly.

Why do ebay keep writing this rubbish

Because if you have paid the fact the item has been removed has no effect on the normal claim process through Paypal or a credit card chargeback.

Very often an item is removed or a seller NARUd because of a failure to pay fees or to update a phone number in which case there is every chance the buyer may receive their item in good order.

While it is important to keep a careful eye on time limits etc and if you wish you can open a dispute immediately but if you escalate to a claim straight away and the seller can provide valid tracking to your address you may well lose the Paypal claim

Same rubbish here IMO

In that thread , it was a  no longer registered SCAMMER from Israel fraudulently listing non existent items.

"the listings they remove for phones, ipads etc are FRAUDULENT listings for NON EXISTENT  items listed by SCAMMERS"

is based on the hundreds of fraudulent listings I report.

I don't have inside information regarding
