Seller request to cancel item after collecting it from seller
Thanks for the advice, I think I will have to decline their cancellation request as it is the right thing to do. The only reason I have hesitated at all is because now I know they are a bit dodgy (in their fee evasion attempts) I worry that they will try to get back at me in some way if I don't go along with it. Paranoid perhaps... but when people are not honest in their approach it does make you wonder...
don't worry, many people don't see that as being dishonest, and there have been people (regular posters, dodgy or otherwise...) advocating it on MSE. Your seller probably thinks it's perfectly fine and didn't even occur the them that they should ask first... just trying their luck I expect.
But I'd decline too, if I were you.
