And now the fun begins.... Immediate payment right after auctions end only to message me 2 hours later wanting to cancel the transaction... I refused. She said she would be in contact with eBay. I pointed out that according to eBay policy a bid is a binding agreement. But she seems to think its ok to just cancel her transaction like she did the 12 previous bids. I knew I should have blocked her. She bid in the last 3 seconds of the auction (I watched it end) paid within 30 seconds of it ending.... And now wants to cancel??? I realize I'm probably asking for trouble but I'd like to complete this transaction.

I think I'd be asking her how long has she been on ebay7, does she normally screw with ppls auctions, does she even know what she's doing, and I'll be contacting Ebay this time. If you mail your item to her, you are going to get nothing but grief! Oh yeah, you ALREADY GOT THAT with her!.
I think I'd be reporting her, giving her money back, blocking her, and advising her to not ever bother me again.
Some sales and buyers just aren't worth the headache, imho.

She Just joined this year. 24 feedback. It is going to be a big headache. I'm tempted to refund and block but then no one sees what she is doing. I'm calling eBay tomorrow evening to try and get some kind of handle on this.

Yuck :(
At this point, way better to refund than ship. If you ship, she will find some way to open a case and return the item anyway. I agree with you that you should call ebay, maybe you can get her banned.

Totally agree. Call eBay and make them look up the history of this bidder on your item. Someone like that has a screw loose and she needs to be dismantled before falling completely apart, lol.

Please post or pm me her username so I (and everyone else) can block her. We need to start a thread about blocked buyers with the reasons why we blocked them.

I'm down with that! :laughing7:
Not that I would ever want to see someone banned who was new, or didn't know what they are doing, yet, but come on........ Ebay has forums too you can learn at, just saying......

I would contact ebay and advise them I have no desire to deal with someone who has already jerked me around! That, I try to make a meager & honest living here and don't need headaches and ppl playing games. If ebay is in agreement, I would then refund her money with the msg, that I am not here to play games with her, she has been blocked, do not bother me ever again, and have a nice life. bye bye. :hello:
Even for me, that seems extreme, but, ya just cain't be no ones doormat and folly.
Shame on the ones that takes anothers' kindness, for stupidity. :nono:

I would have agreed to cancel the transaction and blocked her. I agree with you completely in principle, but sometimes it just isn't worth the aggravation.

I found out today that if you cancel a transaction it goes as a strike against your defect rate. I also see I have one for item not delivered. I just looked it up. It was delivered 1 month after I shipped it. I gotta get on the phone with these idiots.

I would have asked that rep., "What the hell are you talking about?" Then I would have asked to speak with a supervisor and complained about that rep.

At this point I'm just ready to get it sold again. I hate dealing with idiots. It wasn't even a buy it now situation. As it was I was on the phone with 3 different people at eBay to even get the non sale reported as a bad buyer....
