Auctioned a Nintendo on eBay.
the buyer answered a short time later and asked if the OVP was there.
I said no and referred to my description and pictures that never said "with original packaging" or the like.
I also pointed out that there's no right of withdrawal for private sellers.
Now I get threats and "hostility". He wants to report me on eBay (and I don't want to say the other things now since it doesn't matter)
I want to report him directly and not wait 8 days.
Is that possible?
He probably saw / got the thing cheaper elsewhere. If the price achieved is not absolutely TOP I would not do anything further nor communicate with it. Wait if he pays and if not then report on ebay and reset the thing after the waiting time. Saving you a lot of trouble. And whether that is worth the few flakes then I leave it open.
Sure you can report it, "Buyer doesn't pay for item".
You can also enforce the sales contract under civil law.
Also had a candidate who probably didn't expect to be the highest bidder at the end. I threatened to sue if he didn't pay within 14 days. Less than 3 weeks later he suddenly wanted the item because he noticed that he had shot it cheaply. But bad luck for him.
This can only be done directly via the support, but whether they can be reached by phone at the moment. In any case, you should use the time to put him in arrears or to cancel the contract… So a warning with a time limit (1 week, 6 working days).
He could have brought a complaint if you did not cancel the purchase contract correctly.
So I waited for the waiting period.
You can definitely report if he doesn't pay directly. Could you also legally enforce, since legal sales contracts are concluded on ebay.
I was really happy that such a good price was and the thing is finally gone
You just have to think about whether the price is worth the potential trouble. And in the situation, the anger is preprogrammed.
So I waited for the waiting period.
Are you talking about the regular limitation period of 3 years according to the German Civil Code?
This is how long the buyer can claim the object of purchase if you do not properly terminate the purchase contract with a reasonable period of time.
Case open items not paid
or call ebay directly and report the seller
No, not the one from Ebay. But now 3 years have passed.
Alos i can only say that ebay is easily accessible by phone.
The eBay requirements are completely irrelevant because sales contracts are still concluded according to the BGB.
Bad luck if you get to a buyer who knows that.
