So the guy had made multiple counteroffers for 2 of my coins, and I finally said in my final offer, "I'll accept your offer at this price on the condition you buy the other coin at my price." The buyer accepted the offer. However, he never purchased the other coin. What do I do? Is there anything I can do? Report this Post to the Staff

For the future it's generally better to discount both slightly as an encouragement to follow through instead of putting the discount all one one Report this Post to the Staff
Coinfrog Bedrock of the Community United States 94367 Posts	Posted 09/03/2019 6:19 pm Open a case in the Resolution Center - very easy, and lets you get on record immediately. But in my experience, it's difficult to force anyone to buy anything in this world. Perhaps best to cancel the transaction - but by opening up a case in the RC, you can state your case and he will be prevented from leaving negative feedback if the deal falls through.

Papadoc75 Valued Member United States 441 Posts	Posted 09/03/2019 6:44 pm I personally would cancel the transaction. The buyer reneged on the agreed purchase. To me that constitutes a breach of contract. Just my opinion. Report this Post to the Staff
moxking Rest in Peace United States 17900 Posts	Posted 09/03/2019 6:45 pm ebay is going to look at the accepted offer and that's it. If you read the terms of such offers the potential customer is still not obligated to make the purchase even if you both agree on the price. Myself, I'd cancel the sale, refund the money, and add them to my blocked bidder list. If time is of value, this stuff is always more trouble than any immediate profit. Report this Post to the Staff
