Ebay sale issue

You should be able to do this inside the e-bay system. If you both show that you agreed not to complete the transaction, it should erase your closing fees. Because you're selling to the 2nd person, they will charge you those closing fees. When you refund the guy's payment from Paypal, it will automatically take the fees back too. So if he sent you $200, you got $195ish. When you refund the money, the $5 in fees will be refunded as well, so you're not out any money at all.

If you think that your item went for more than it should have, you should maybe think about asking if the parents can return it. If you expect that the 2nd chance guy will take it (or have already offered and he's accepted), just write the guy a note saying you understand and move on.

Yes, that's how to get it started [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

I have been a powerseller on ebay for over 5 years. I would offer to refund it minus ANY AND ALL fees you incurred during the sale. This includes the origianl cost of posting , the final value fee and the cost to re-post the item.
