Cancel shipping label
Summary: msnikky88 asked about the possibility of cancelling a postage label that had been incorrectly franked, but the no-longer-needed label could not be cancelled in the eBay account because it was supposedly already used. meinehexe11 recommended clearing the cache and using a different browser. petersmodellbahnstuebchen offered additional help, while samantha@ebay, an eBay representative, confirmed that the cancellation is being processed and that a refund will be issued. msnikky88 is waiting for final confirmation from eBay.
Hello,
I incorrectly franked an item. The first shipping label was 2 kg for €6.19, but the package is heavier, so I had to create a new shipping label (€7.69 for 5 kg).
But I can no longer cancel the old label because no button is available. (I was still able to cancel the new label an hour after creating it, but now I can’t anymore.) The package has not been shipped yet, so the code has not been scanned yet.
Can I only cancel the old one once the new shipping label has been scanned?
Or am I stuck with the costs?
Thanks a lot for your feedback.
Best regards

Thanks for the tags :)

many, many thanks for the quick response and efforts.
I’m super relieved now, I was already desperate that it wouldn’t work out in the end.
Thank you very much for handling this and for the support.
Also to the other members who helped me.

Take a look in the tracking to see whether your customer has specified a safe place for delivery

OP1 week agoHello Peter,
Many thanks for the feedback.
Yes, indeed the customer has provided a drop-off location.
I’ve now also gotten as far as my eBay shipping labels, that I wanted to cancel the label here, but I get the response that this is not possible because the label has been used. But it hasn’t been used, neither scanned nor shipped.
Now I’m waiting for a response from eBay customer service
Kind regards, Janine

OP1 week agoHello meinehexe11,
many thanks for the feedback and the tip. I cleared the cache and tried it with another browser.
I’ve now also gotten to the point in my eBay shipping labels that I wanted to cancel the label here, but I’m getting the message that this isn’t possible because the label has been used. But it hasn’t been used, neither scanned nor sent.
I’m now waiting for a response from eBay customer service.
Kind regards Janine

The label should be able to be canceled at any time.
Have you looked under shipping labels in your eBay account? If you still can’t get anywhere here, please let us know again. Then an eBay employee will take a look.
