Buyer requests cancellation of purchase

Question

Hello,A buyer asked me to cancel the purchase. I did not agree to this and replied with "No". So far, okay, but why am I being asked if the request to cancel already results in the cancellation regardless of how I decide? So what is the point of asking me anything if the decision has already been made over my head? Honestly, if it is so easy to withdraw from a contract... well then, let's go ahead and happily bid away and then say: purchase canceled and that's the end of it... that can't be righ...

Hello @smokey-and-bandit , so a buyer can't cancel a purchase themselves, that can only be done on the seller's side. So either you agreed to the cancellation by accident, or the purchase was automatically canceled due to non-payment (after 4 days). By the way, the latter is a setting in your account, which you can disable or change the time for.
