Question about ebay bid.

[Lager]

What happens if you bid on something and later you do not want it? Do you still have to buy it if you win?

 

[notfred]

yes.

What's with the stupidly obvious posts today?

Don't bid on anything you are not willing to pay for...

you can retract your bid, but only for certain reasons and during a certain time period...search ebay's help for bid retractions.

Once you win, you're obligated to buy, but you can sometimes contact the buyer and explain the situation and see if they'll let you out of the contract.

 

[Ryan]

Yea, if the action ends, you've entered a binding contract to buy it. IF that's too complicated for you, you shouldn't have an ebay account.

Damn, forgot my paypal account. I can't log in. How long does password retraction take?

 

[CraigRT]

if you bid and win, you gotta buy, else you screw the seller

it's pretty obvious if ya ask me

if you don't want it, sell it on EBAY when you get it 😉

or be real nice to the seller and plea with them... but you don't want negative as your first feedback so be careful.

Most sellers don't care if you retract your bid....as long as it's done in a TIMELY manner.
