Had some auctions ending today ,a few minutes after the end of one of them I had this message from the winning bidder -
Is it that hard to look into your funds before you waste someone's time knowing you can't pay for an item you're bidding on ???? I've offered the item on a 2nd chance to the next highest bidder and it's been accepted , just hope they pay up now or I will be :mad::mad::mad:.I'm really sorry I have just won these items and have just realized I dont have the funds at the moment as I purchased something earlier today, can I please cancel the transaction?

Don't forget you have to also reclaim your fees on the first sale. That means either opening a full NPB on the original buyer, which may be unwise as you have already gone to a SCO- or you risk a mutual. If you don't get the original sale cancelled you have two lots of FVFs to pay.I’m a Forum Ambassador and I support the Forum Team on the eBay, Auctions, Car Boot & Jumble Sales, Boost Your Income, Praise, Vents & Warnings, Overseas Holidays & Travel Planning , UK Holidays, Days Out & Entertainments boards.
