If bidder asks you to cancel your bid
Many a time,sellers receive requests to cancel a bid that has been placed on an item. Sometimes the requests come from parents who discover that their children have place the bids using their account information.
Or, perhaps the bidder has a legitimate reason for backing out. such as a death in the family , the bidder has fallen seriously ill, or there has been a dramatic change in the bidder's financial status.
eBay allows you to cancel bids only in a few narrowly defined situations. For example, if you are unable to verify a bidder's identity you cancel a bid. You may also cancel a bid at the bidder's request, if the person changes his or her mind, or if you read negative feedback comments that identify the individual as a Non-Paying Bidders. Just follow these steps to cancel your listing:-
- Go to the Cancel Bids page
- sign in with your ID and password
- When the Bid Cancellation page appears, enter the item number of the auction, the User ID of the bid you want to cancel and a brief explanation of why you want to cancel
- Click cancel bid.
You can also cancel bids from your My eBay page. Go to My eBay,click the Selling tab, and scroll down to the Selling-Related Links section. Click the link Cancel bids on My Item to initiate the cancellation process.
