Relisted at another price

[retrovintagecollectibles]

I listed an item at a BIN that did not sell.  I relisted the item, and I can't remember if I went  through ebay, or my unsold items that went through my hotmail account, when I relisted the item.

I am 100 % sure that I did not list the BIN item for what it sold for.  So what I am asking is , did ebay change the price of what they suggest I should sell it for, and me not realising when relisting it that the price had been changed, which was 3/4 of the price originally listed. 

Hence the item sold. If this is the case, I have to check all items listed at a price that I am happy to sell them for.

eBay cannot  change the prices you set.

Did you list it for an auction start price with a BIN ?

Because the BIN disappears when a bid is placed and it sells for the start price if no other bids as there are no reserves on eBay Aus.

If it is on this ID, you haven't sold anything for a while.

Hi Kopenhagen5,

Thanks for getting back to me.  This listing is on my ebay shop, as I have approx 1500 items, no auctions.

This account is not used too much, just for auctions, which once in a blue moon.

You can't remember how you relisted it... why would you expect to remember what you listed it for? i suspect you relisted it for the amount the buyer bought it for. Send it.

As an aside, the only way you can list an item is through a relist, sell similar, the eBay 'Sell Your Item' option or the app equivalents. All of those allow you to set the starting price/BIN.

100% it is your 'mistake'. Please enlighten us as to why the buyer should suffer.

Hi Dave,

I never said the buyer should suffer!  I am happy to post for what it sold for,  I was merely asking the question if it was a possibility!

You are too quick to jump to conclusions.

I can transfer my listings from my website, hence I know the price I was asking......

No wonder people are hesitant to ask questions on this forum if they get responses like yours , others are very helpful and very knowlegeable.

Please accept my apology.

I thought you were after facts.

I don't sugarcoat them

Transferring from your website, de facto, is a new listing, not a relist.

Hi Dave,

Thank you and your apology is accepted.

 I am just trying to eliminate all avenues of error, including ebay, my website transfer, and human error, so this does not occur again.

I will always honour a sale, as I am not a newbie, and it gives sellers a bad name who don't follow through!
