    Are you the buyer or the seller and is it you that has made the offer (or counter offer)?

    Actually, it should be the same regardless, find the offer on your selling page or buying page and from the drop down box choose any option that allows you to cancel offer.

    Think you will find that a best offer is the same as placing a bid and that you will need to contact the seller and ask them to ignore your offer.

    Following taken from the ebay help page

    You should make a Best Offer only when you’re serious about buying the item at your Best Offer price. As with bidding on auction-style listings, your Best Offer is binding. If your offer is accepted by the seller, you are obliged to pay for it.
