relisting cancelled items for higher amount

[malev57]

I had cause to deal with a seller a few weeks ago seller outdoor tiles the item was for several sq metres and i won the auction for around $30 which really was a bargain.then the problems, a few days later a revived a request through ebay to cancel sale . Reason given was some family thing me.being someone who has been around a long time smelt a rat i ignored the request and left negative feedback and negative follow up saying i think seller has sold item elsewhere for a higher price. Then because of my circumstances i gave up and the request lapsted and sale was cancelled it think or i just cancelled it.
And what happened a few weeks later still looking for tiles saw same.tiles and seller with a buy price of $99 then.after 2atempts at that price $79.
Now i seriously think sales that have been cancelled and then relisted especially for more should be banned by ebay ?

It was obvious they wanted more than you won them for so they relisted with a price they want.

All you can do is report them as a non performing seller and move on.

Never leave a request to cancel as it will go in the sellers favor if you ignore it.

And why agree to it when they have done the wrong thing.

Moving on is NO solution.
I don't really care found my tiles but everyone needs to understand this should be fundamental you have been made a fool of !
I don't particularly like that. Yo me the sale is a contract between two and needs to be honoured . Moving on to me is lying down and letting someone run over you. Of your the type that likes moving well and good.
The problem is not solved stupid sellers will continue to do this types of thing and ebay will continue to collect fees etc....
The problem is real and there's a very simple solution as i side .moving on is a cop out to me

There is to need to be rude to other posters.

You have been given the correct advice.....if you do not like the message there is no need to shoot the messenger.

You could always make your feelings known to ebay....there is a Suggestion Box to give them your ideas.

I want being rude
U may think so i think they are old enough to respond if they want
No need to be defensive ?
Its a debate others have there views as i have
Unless u have been put in that position its easy to say move on and i stated that just like i say to you its a debate an idea iam putting forward and looking for other to really think about if the shoe was on there foot so moving on doesn't cut it for.me.
Constructive criticism is what iam looking for not comments about feelings ..
Or os this.not the place to air your views? Or this is a mutual admiration society ? Constructive comments are welcomed by me but today move on doesn't solve the problem its just put into the to hard basket !

[malev57]

Again i point out there was a contract between two people and one half reneged and then relisted item for more money cant only one see the wrong in that situation ? All iam seeking is a way to solve this i really don't think this is a isolated incident and of we are all sheep and follow over the the gap well.... If this is not brought up then the problem will never be solved and ebay will never bother to do the wright thing by its buyers with them there is no ebay !!!! Think about that

[malev57]

If u don't agree that's fine as long sensible grounds are put .

[malev57]

I have over 900 positive feedback in majority for buying that's over 4 years so i think i know what iam saying and why iam saying it i have been in business all my life starting the first one
When i was in first form or year 7 in.modern terms

[malev57]

Unfortunately i take ebay seriously not as a game or whatever and there are way to many amateur, fools scam artists on ebay

We have all probably experienced it.

eBay will generally not do anything about it, and I'm sure you have experienced the issue before as you're so experienced.

A lot of the problem is new sellers taking eBay at their word and starting auctions low, as that will supposedly attract higher final prices. Then they find out it's not so. So they do the sensible thing and use BIN, which eBay has been gearing towards for years.

And having shots at other members just because you don't like their POV does not come across well. It shows YOU as being unreasonable.

As does continual replies to yourself.

And your 88 selling feedback (last 18 months ago) really has nothing to do with this. Except , maybe, that as a business person you should know better than to expect to get something at a loss to the seller. Which I'm sure, as a business person, you would not do yourself.
