Ebay "hiccup"

In my last post I told you about the Nikon, model N4004 I won on Ebay. Well, there's been a slight hiccup in the transaction. I should have received the camera yesterday (Wednesday August 3, 2011) I did not. Instead I received an e-mail message at ebay telling me the Seller wanted to cancel the auction. He did not give a reason in the request to cancel the auction, however, in a separate message he did state that "Ebay had incorrectly listed the camera's price. (please keep in mind that I won the auction for $19.49) There should have been a minimum price of $25.00", because that's what the camera cost him.

I checked my Paypal account to see if the Seller had been paid. He has. I don't want any of this to scare you away from buying on Ebay. It's a great place to get good deals, but I do want you to be aware, that occasionally a Seller who thinks he did not get a high enough price for his merchandise, may try to "gouge" you for more money. My purchase is protected by Ebay's Buyer Protection Plan. If I don't receive the camera or my money by August 18, Ebay will refund my purchase price, and then they will deal with the Seller. 'til next time... happy shutter bugging...
