    As miss-coordinated has hinted, if the item is damaged or broken;) before there is an opportunity to post it most buyers would be happy with a quick refund.

    Might have been a BIN that was only put on yesterday as far as we know :confused:
    OP put "a wrong starting price" on thier listing..to me that is an auction, a BIN is just a final price,but i see your point.

    In the past when i won an auction that seemed to be cheaper than normal the seller claims that the item has been lost in the post (therefore just got a refund), which could've been true, however they then listed it again a couple of days later with a higher starting price (same pic, description etc).
    So as a possibility you could always pull the "lost in post" trick then refund, just don't relist it.
