Was it the same phone sent back, I always note IMEI number as had a similar issue with a phone I sold to someone in Ireland. They soon shut up when I said return the phone but make sure it's this IMEI number! All of a sudden it was working fine.......

Didn't think buyers could cancel a transaction you have to ask the seller to do it on your behalf.
Happened to me when I sold something once and I got all my seller and Paypal fees back.

As a business seller they hold your money until you cancel and you don't get your PayPal fees back only your eBay fees.

It's a recent thing, buyers can cancel within the first hour as long as the item hasn't been marked shipped. I'm refusing to use ebay now, too many people playing the game of saying its broken when it isn't and hoping you partially refund high value items or just let them keep it.
I've had two items returned that were absolutely fine, yet I'm out of pocket for the delivery and return postage and ebay don't care about sellers. It's a buyers world on there, except the prices are generally extortionate now.
Sold a roof rack and bars on there, buyer begged for postage which cost £20, then said one of the screws was threaded despite me having photos to prove it either wasn't the same one or they had damaged it themselves. Was going to cost me another £20 to get it back so I refunded them in full and said they can keep it and buy a replacement part for about £10. After refunding the whole amount they still left negative feedback, I was down £40 for postage and then the cost of the item too.

100000 for a bike?!? Is it one of evel keneivel's?
I use eBay quite a bit selling off my old vinyl and comics. Very few problems apart from two damaged in transit by ham fisted postmen....
Had 1 record got lost in Amsterdam but I guess that can happen to anyone.. .

I sold a set of steve neville f.o buzz bars on ebay a few years back,mint condition, when they got to there destination they claimed the bars were bent,how the hell could anything bend a set of f.o bars...it would have to have been run over by a challenger tank,it was going to cost me £15 to return them to me so refunded them £15....absolutely fuming as the pictures they sent me didn't show any damage....because there was none.

It was the same phone but had definitely been tampered with . The guy that bought it buys and sells phones/tablets.

That sounds almost definitely like a bit of Money laundering, things have gone on like that in the art world for a long time. Two or three people bid at auction for a piece of old tat that's worthless and the winning bidder is very well known to the seller. Its just an old scam that seems to be on ebay now.

That's awful, after a month!
Looks like maybe the best thing is to message the buyer after purchase and check they are 100% happy, then at least if they reply you have a defence, but probably 95% wont.

Just seen 3 fox rapide loaders go for 29 quid... just the things to hold the bags open no bags or cases
