Ebay seller listed item by accident

    I purchased a jumper on ebay yesterday and yesterday evening the seller replied to me saying that the item had been listed by accident and did i want to buy something else or want a refund.

    As I only buy through ebay just wondering how this can happen I assume you could re-list it by accident but it would have to be unsold on its original listing and anything other than that is just a case of having second thoughts on selling it or on the listed price. Any advice appreciated Thanks.

    You don't slip and put something for sale. I would imagine that they have decided to not sell it on ebay for some reason. Maybe they no longer wish to sell, or sold it elsewhere.

    I'd say take the full refund and neutral feedback if they don't mess around too much.

    It's a human error I would say- if a retailer sells on different sites- ebay/ Amazon etc, they could easily have entered the wrong size or quantity, I imagine.

    If they are refunding the full amount, I would just take it and move on or see if they could give you a different jumper, perhaps?
