oh dear, anyone can click on your feedback score and see the big red dot you recieved for cancelling a sale on a
WROUGHT IRON DECORATIVE BALCONY GUARD RAILS (#201665535275)
being unhappy with a sale is NOT a reason to cancel a sale.
I would say the two cases (the present one and the wrought iron sale) are very different.
In the current one, the so called buyer went missing in action, no money paid, no communication.
In the wrought iron sale, I am guessing but possibly the seller set a starting price lower than they were willing to take and expected the auction to take off and it didn't.
As I have said, I think the best solution if someone doesn't pay is probably to go the way of an unpaid item dispute. But in the case of the wrought iron sale, if the selling price is well below what the person was expecting, then i don't blame them for cancelling a sale.
I think a lot of new sellers seem to get caught out like this.
The solution to that one is different-always start an auction at a price you would be happy with.
But if the deed has been done and a person realises they made a big mistake, then being unhappy is a reason to cancel a sale. There is no reason anyone should feel compelled to give something away if they made a mistake.
But yes, they need to learn from that and start higher next time.
