I won an item on ebay and I guess the seller expected more. So he canceled the order. I have never seen this before, I guess this must be new.
I didn't know they could do that!!!

They’ll blame it on ‘unseen damage’ or ‘not in stock’. Just move on, trust me
Yep he said not in stock.
If it wasn't in stock why is there an auction for it? Dumbest thing I've ever heard.
Yeah that’s why they should set a reserve on it...but reserves do deter people from bidding though...
Same thing happened to me on Sportslots. Not sure if there is anything you can do other than leave negative feedback.
Can't leave feedback because we officially never had a transaction
I guess you could bid on all his other items and then not pay?
A lot of collectors or shops have items listed on multiple platforms or in physical store. If it’s listed on ebay and sold on sport lots or in a store there may be overlap. Inexcusable but the only valid ‘out of stock’ argument
Actually, I believe you can. Check your page for "feedback to be left." I've had some cancelled orders as a buyer and they were always in my waiting for feedback queue.
I'm sure they've done this before believe me your not the first.
I think you have to wait a week before you can leave negative feedback
Now he has relisted the item. What a joke!!!DG
I'd probably contact eBay about that, with the auction you "won" and the auction where he relisted it. I'm not sure it'll do any good, but it certainly couldn't hurt!
I'm trying to figure out how to contact them, any ideas?
Well, looking around the site, it's looks like they've made it nearly impossible actually. A Google search turned up a customer service phone number, which is (866) 961-9253. Judging by how they set up their help and support pages, though, I'd say good luck actually getting to talk to a real person.

Looks like there isn't anything eBay will do about it, but you should be able to leave a feedback after 7 days have passed.
On a positive note, looks like the seller will get a "defect" for initiating the cancellation, and too many of those will get their account restricted or suspended.
