Ebay Hints, Tips & Advice

Question for you Ebay Regulars!!
Ive just sold an Item,(not car related) and it was a 99cent auction. He won it at 65bucks.
I stated CLEARLY it was pick up only etcetc...
Anyway.. after 6 days of his email questions about my adress so he could organise a courier, today he emails me and says actually he now realises that the item wont suit his sister whom he bought it for and could I please relist it??
WTF??
So the question is, if I relist it will I be charged for the first sale by Ebay, or do I need to **** around and open a dispute?
Again, Thanx for all and any advice ppl..

Gaddy has he already paid you, if not your sorta up s..t creek without a huge hassle with ebay and raising a dispute...if he has paid you...it is up to him to get it and sell it himself...people are amazing they should think about it first before bidding....:shifty:

Gaddy you should open a dispute for unpaid item. This will put it into eBay's system, then you can relist the original item with an option to select that it is a relist for unpaid listing - you will not be charged.

any wonder i prefer to walk into a shop and buy and do garage sales or market trash & treasure to sell.....

too many thieves and idiots on ebay... (not of course, including friends who arent thieves and idiots...)

That sounds like the go but can I relist the Item straight away or do I need to wait till the dispute is finalised?

You can relist now and open the dispute call at the same time.
