An eBay contract does not, however, directly equate to transfer of legal ownership/title to goods, per http://pages.ebay.com/help/policies/user-agreement.html .If the seller then tells buyer B the circumstances and buyer B offers to pay for the other item buyer A has won if they do not wish that any more, believing that having paid first means that they now have legal title to goods on the other two items, it is again the seller's responsibility to resolve that matter. The obvious answer should be a firm "no".Buyer B exacerbating the matter by overstepping is secondary to the seller's performance issues and certainly less "shady" (given the above scenario) than other observed behaviors where, for example, there is only a single listing and a third party armtwists the seller to cancel and refund payment on a completed contract.02c/ymmv, anyhow...

Pipswich wrote:The rest of your post is flame trolling opinion and defamation. His own emails show he did not pay immediately. Meanwhile, the items had been bought and paid for.

faro wrote:Martin; this community stands by those who have done far worse (both legally and ethically) and supports more dubious behaviors (from my p.o.v., at least) than anything thus far cited in this thread. Is there some sort of "kick the outcaste out" forum rule that I'm unaware of?If anyone wishes to start such a thread on a level playing field basis, feel free.
Prufrock wrote:No there is no "kick the outcaste out" rule. I'm sick of his behavior is all. This is not his first "rodeo" and it will not be his last. I agree with RaisedFromTheDead, if he would just own up to it. But instead, he provides his "I have the art, therefore I'm right" defense. He's a sniveling little wretch of man.Martin
misterspock wrote:Just to let you all know, I did take the seller to task on this. I absolutely laid the blame squarely with her. However, I wanted to demonstrate Pip's involvement in this.As was mentioned before, Ebay is not in the business of enforcement. I can't speak to the UK or other countries, but in the U.S. ultimately state law governs contract disputes.
