I bought a “Buy It Now” item, payment went through. Two days later, I got an email saying I got a refund. I looked at the order and I looks like I indeed got a full refund. There are no notes or messages from the seller, so I’m not really sure what happened. Should I message the seller? Report that I haven’t received the order? The order does not show that it was canceled; it shows the Paid status, and awaiting shipping.

I’m honestly confused on what to do.

The sellers usually don't say anything of the sort because ebay can use that against them and close their shop. I am unsure ATM whether a buyer can leave feedback if the purchase has been cancelled (I've not been on ebay for years) but a neutral one simply stating what happened, that might not be a bad idea.

I think just a neutral review stating "The seller abruptly canceled and refunded without explanation" would do the trick. I might even be inclined to leave negative feedback if the seller refused an adequate explanation. I'm not sure though if it's possible after a refund. I try to seek out sellers who are individuals casually selling personal items vs. someone whose business is selling on eBay, so I've never had this happen yet.

Rule 7- You can't intentionally annoy, mock, or harass other members.

If you intentionally annoy, mock, harass, or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.

Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
