Noting of course, as you doubtless know , that there is NO buyer protection for bank deposit.

 

So the risk is.... 0

Yay....I think I've had a victory. When you click on her Feedback Profile it states she is "not a registered user" , but if you click on her ID name it is still current. Which is it.?? I'm a tad confused. Anybody know the answer?

If you click on her feedback and it's saying not a registered user, eBay have shut her account down. Open a dispute now to get your fees back.

Tried that & it's telling me I have to wait the 4 days to open. So will do it then. I thought with unreg user you could do it immediately??

I know if a seller becomes NARU a buyer can open a dispute and get an almost immediate refund, but not sure what happens when it's the buyer. Just wait the 4 days and open an UPI. Although, if they are definitely NARU, a cancellation might be quicker as you should be able to do that straight away. The last cancellation I did, which I used the reason unable to contact buyer (or something to that effect), I was able to manually close it on day 8.

 

Good to see eBay took notice of the report! Well done for pushing the issue with them.

Thanks! It's the first time I've ever rang Ebay & they certainly don't make it easy. We seemed to go round & round & I really had to push for the escalation. Must say I'm surprised that it actually ended in NARU so quickly. I'm not fussed about the cancellation/UPI thing - my main concern was the mischief she could cause via feedback or some accusation about item. Anyway - hopefully this is the end of the matter. Would just like to say a big THANK YOU to everyone for their help. Regards Lynne
