Listed An Item Last Night And Sold within couple of minutes But............

Listed an item last night at 8.20 pm. Within couple of minutes it sold..Here are eBays Details.

Start time:15 Nov, 2014 20:20:50 AEDST

 

Ended             15 Nov, 2014 20:21:05 AEDST
 
Now you can see between listing and selling 15 second. The person who bought it paid within seconds with Paypal. I started packing the item for postage on Monday morning.
 
Now Remember I only have 1 of these items about 1 hour later someone bought the same item which has already been sold but the confusing part is this again eBay Details.
 
Start time:

15 Nov, 2014 20:24:23 AEDST

 
Ended              15 Nov, 2014 21:35:36 AEDST
 
The Item was listed as Buy It Now. When it sold why was it now removed and why the time difference in the Start Time?
I have contacted the second buyer and explained as best I could that the item was sold about 1 hour earlier. Thankfully they havent paid. but they havent got back to me either.
 
Am I open to a Defect, Negitive Feedback or anyother curse...
 
I would love to know how this can happen..

15 seconds? I would not have thought that that was possible.

was it the

1964 Australian Penny And Half Penny Great For A Cheap 50th Birthday Present

you listed this as 'quantity 4'

now I know there are 4 coins on offer in 1 lot, however if you put 4 in the qunatity box you were offering four lots of 4 coins

 

you sold 2 x lots of 4 coins and still have 2 x 4 coins on offer.

 

the 'quantity' is the number of items you have to sell under one offer

I think that may be where your error occured

No It was an Adjustable Spanner which was my dads. They I know are a very expensive item I had it listed on Auction and I think about 15 watchers for the same price as I listed it as BIN $45 Plus Postage It never sold so I listed it as Buy It Now. And this happens

It's strange that it's two item numbers. I would ring ebay ask them what happened and if it's their mistake I would ask them to contact the second buyer and tell them what happened.

Looking at the listings.

 

The one which ended first looks like it was listed using the sell similar option.

 

The second one which ended was listing using the relist option from the ended auction listing.

 

Did you by chance first go to list it using the sell similar function and then realise it was actually the relist function you wanted to use?

If that is the case then you need to contact ebay as the first one which sold is not showing as being a relist from the original listing.

Now the second buyer has paid with Paypal and I received a message from him "Well can you refund my money" Which I did instantly. Can he leave Neg FB and will I receive a Defect?
