How long does the re-listed auction have to run? It could well be that he's spent the money already so cannot actually repay the buyer until the auction has finished, no matter how intent he is on "doing the decent thing".fjpshaw":3tu4n0jy said:15 days more than the seller needs to issue a refund. The open dispute may at least give him the nudge he needs to do the right thing though. Shouldn't need eBay to get involved, but I'm sure the buyer doesn't want to be in this same situation in 15 days time and not have the option of enlisting ebay's help.suburbanreuben":3tu4n0jy said:A dispute will not lead to a quick resolution. Ebay now give you 15 days to reach an amicable solution (whether you need 15 days or not) before acting themselves.
It could also inflame matters.
Tricky...
A little patience might be wise, as well as asking him what his intentions are re the re-listing. If you open a dispute he may well decide you can wait for your money...
It might be wise to wait until the auction has finished.
Having said that, I probably wouldn't...
