Ebay account open to son!

[Mad Titan]

So my auction of ASM 121 CGC 7.0 ended Saturday night, buyer pays promptly. Then I get this Sunday:

 

"yes my son bought this item last night and paid for this item with out me knowing it. is there anyway you can see if the person that was bidding against him would like a second chance on this item and hopefully buy it because i already have one of these and dont need this one. I don't know what my son was doing on here and i do appologise for this. if there is anything you can do please let me know."

 

 

I've already sent a second chance offer to the other bidder just waiting for a reply. I could just say NO and send the item but that could open a whole big can of worms that I don't want!

 

Just want to post here to see what you guys think of this!

This seems to be a common excuse. Yeah everyone's ten year old kid wants an ASM 121 CGC 7.0

He found a better deal. Don't send it. He'll just pull some mess with paypal. Not worth the aggravation.

Ah, the time honored "showcase4" defense.

Ya know, it is a common excuse (someone used my account) and one that has been used on me as a seller but, I use the iPad eBay app too, and my nephew bought a Skylander figure off my account since the eBay app always has you signed on.

 

Just throwing that out there.

Well, sorry you have to deal with such .

 

If the bidder that gets the 2nd chance offer wants to pay less still, you are likely getting scammed. The winning bidder bails and the underbidder - a confederate - tries to get the book for less still. Hoping you'll take less to just get the sale done

 

As others said. likley the buyer just found a better deal or a book he wants worse elsewhere.

 

Making him take the book will turn into a hassle as the odds are high he'll find some reason to try to return it. Sometimes eBay backs up sellers, oftentimes not.

Good Luck

So it's the seller's fault that parents don't teach their children about not using other peoples' property without permission?

 

What's next, child proof cigarette lighters?

Also, now eBay pushes one click check out so someone could just buy and pay without ever logging in if you are already logged into eBay.

 

You would think the guy would make his son pay for it and that would be that.

Especially a CGC 7.0. Everyone knows kids DO NOT read comics.

 

My advice is to tell him why he’s letting his son using the Internet. Internet is not for children.

Maybe he did find a better deal but I've checked his completed auctions and he had 2 ASM 121 for sale last month and a cgc 7.5 that ended couple days before mine!

i would offer to cancel the transaction so you dont get hit with ebay fees and just try and sell it again...probably easier to sell on the boards tho man...hassle free and pretty much full profit.

That just may be the best advice given here.

why's this being discussed? cancel transaciton and relist the item. it's not like you sent it yet right?

 

do you lose something i'm not aware of as a seller if you just cancel it and relist it? other than the current sale i mean, which i can't imagine you would want anyway cause he will probably just make your life miserable.

Ebay is dangerous. I had the same issue as above . M son was looking at skylanders figures. I got lucky. He had not hit the buy it button. Also had buyers use the excuse on me. It happens but most of the time its bull.
