I had been watching a 18239 full set on eBay for a while. It was priced at $16.7K which wasn't a bad deal, but, not a stellar deal.

This morning, I got an eBay notification that the seller was offering 20% off on the watch, bringing the price down to $13,359.20 - which is a stellar deal.

I made the purchase immediately (purchase made at 11:17 AM PST today) and paid in full.

At 4:13 PM PST, I received notification from eBay that the seller cancelled the transaction with the reason of, "Out of stock or damaged." I presume that this literally translates to, "I sold it somewhere else for more money."

Unfortunately, when a seller does this on eBay, you can't leave feedback for the seller, so, can't share the shady business practices with others.

IMO, this is simply broken mazal - no other way to put it. If the cancellation were within 30 minutes or an hour, it would be one thing. But, it was a full five hours after the purchase.
