My mate had a set of golf alloys listed
A last second bid won them for £100 collected which he was happy with (despite someone offering £230 posted)
3 days later and no payment recieved and no messages from the buyer
So he agree's to post to this other guy
Then the original thought to be time waster mails to ask how he would like his money (even though its collection)
Mate has told him hes had his chance and hes sold the alloys on
Guy is now saying hes gona report him to ebay & he should have started the alloys at a higher price if he didnt want £100 for them................
What can happen?

Yeah probably bad feedback, your mate should of waited till his claim of a none paying buyer went through properly before selling them to someone else (thats if he put in a claim)
I had to do this with a set of wheels a couple of months ago, haven't had his problem though because no one else has tried buying them since

Pretty sure your mate can just cancel the transaction, no harm done then surely?

Think the person who won the auction has to agree to the transaction being cancelled? Not sure though
