Hello everyoneI wanted to buy an item from the USA. But the seller hadn’t entered any shipping costs. So the purchase wasn’t possible.After getting in touch, it was agreed, since we had already agreed on a price reduction anyway, that I should send a price offer with the agreed price.He would then add the shipping costs and accept the price offer.What happened now: I sent the price offer, the seller accepted it, but didn’t add any shipping costs.So now eBay says “please pay for the item” and at the same time “error, item cannot be delivered to you”.So I’m stuck in this sales process. And the problem now is that the seller has “disappeared” and is ignoring all attempts to contact him.What should I do? Cancel the sale? What happens if the seller then gives me a bad rating out of spite?I do want to buy it, but if the seller doesn’t enter the shipping costs, eBay won’t allow it now.Thanks and regardsOrion
