What’s peoples thoughts on this?

Won an auction on eBay.
10 minutes later it was cancelled? 🤔 

What do others think. The response was “cancelled due to damage”. 🤔 

Anyone know the seller? 
How can you cancel 10 minutes after you auctioned it...

Didn’t get enough and so cancelled me? What do others think. The response was “cancelled due to damage”. 🤔

Probably wants you to  contact them and then do a deal outside of Ebay where your goods never arrive. 
just speculating, but I got done on a ssdrive years back like that - 100% my fault. .

Just the nonsense you have to put up with eBay mate.  Full of total A holes.

They never received the price they wanted so just cancelled .  A more worrying thought, someone who cancels now has your address and they  know what you collect. I always use my work address and simply never buy from people with little or no  feedback .

That's the same seller I was referring to in a different thread. A seller from Blackburn sold a gold proof Queens Beasts completer. This seller, also from Blackburn listed the same coin the next day.

I suspect they are the one and the same seller and something dodgy is going on. I would steer clear.

My guess is they didn't get the sale price they were after so cancelled the sale I had the same a while ago job lot of old jewellery sizable gold chain and some rings auction finished about half of what I would have paid seller just cancelled the sale and realised

[Clockpuncher]

Yea, I had similar a few weeks back. Went for a 'buy it now' on a 2017 raw proof Sov at £700. Woke up to find I'd been refunded with the below excuse. Why list at £700 if you're not happy with the price! 

Think its just Ebay shenanigans and par for the course

This is likely people seeing the price the coins go for at dealers, auctions and generally , not realising that only sellers with a long standing good reputation get the best prices.

 A Random Ebay seller who has low feedback and does not normally deal in coins is not going to get the best price. This does mean bargains can be available but you have to be sure you can assess accurately what you purchased and be prepared to send back anything that is inaccurate.

I second this. Likely didn't get the £££s they wanted due to a lack of reputation so cancelled instead of shipping the coin

[SilverJacks]

I saw this today and wondered how it went so cheap... Then I wondered whether seller would honour the agreement. 

Agree that he didn't get his price due to low seller profile. Was worth a punt and nothing lost I guess...

[MrFreezerrr]

All the above ☝or perhaps got a better offer in the mail from another bidder that missed out. Whatever the cause...real s****** atittude👎🏻

[Hunter87]

If he is up to no good then he probably has multiple accounts and is bidding on his own items to bump up the price.

Ah I see, feedback of 3.
