I use Paypal but I'm being prompted to pay. Like I think I still have to confirm the payment in order to send the money.

Your account will be flagged and/or deleted if you refuse to pay.

Winning an auction but refusing to pay is a completely dick move. Why the hell did you even bid?

You just cost the seller ebay fees. Don't bid on shit if you don't mean to buy it. What did you even think you were doing? You deserve to be banned.

i don't think this is true. when the sale gets cancelled, the fees should go away, too.

No. At least not without consequences. You'll probably have your account closed.
Every bid you make, along with offer, is consent to pay that amount.

I've done it before, just messaged the seller and had them cancel the auction. They were pissed since I was "committed," but I found a better deal so just refused.

They do, but only to an extent. You get the basic eBay fees back, but you've gotta wait for them to repost to your account, since they take them out once it sells, and if the price of your product has gone done in the meantime, you're just shit out of luck.

It's a very dick move to bid on something you don't intend to actually buy.

I was bidding up the price but didn't really want to buy it, just inflate the price.

So then, yes, that's a super dick move, and you deserve to be banned from eBay. Why would you do that? I hope they make you pay full price.

It was a highly sought after item in a collectible card game that I already own so I was trying to increase the price but lose the auction so I can use it as a comp and sell my own copy for more.

The best thing to do is to contact the seller and ask for the sale to be cancelled. If they agree they can cancel it on their end and then send a second chance offer to the next highest bidder. If they don't agree and you don't pay after a few days you'll get a strike against your account.

In the future, it's best not to place bids if you don't intend to buy. Doing that repeatedly will probably get you banned from the site.

As a buyer you can get away with basically anything on ebay. Including paying for an item, saying you never got it, and then getting a refund. They basically always side with the buyer.

This is projection. I'm reminded every time I come here I'm one of the few sane people here.

What I did was not a big deal or even uncommon.
