I bought a pair of sunglasses off Ebay (it was a buy now thing). Right after I paid with paypal I got an alert that said the bid had been canceled because there was an unautherized third party. The seller sent me an email after that saying that the payment was accepted and the glasses shipped. Was I scammed or will I receive the glasses...help please :)

Contact the seller soon and let him/her know the notice you received. If they have shipped the item already ask them to provide you with a tracking# Also you want to check your bank account within a few days to make sure the transaction went through successfully. I think it was just an on-line error that you received. But definitely email the seller

How long ago did the seller contact you?
Have you contacted EBay Online Help to see what was with the alert?
Also if you paid via paypal and do not receive the glasses you can file for a refund.

When you log into Ebay, there is a Live Help link. You can instant message with an Ebay employee who can look up the seller's account and see what is going on. Might I ask, what was his feedback? If it was many negatives, you might have been scammed.

That's odd. I guess you'll just have to see if you receive them or not. If you don't .. contact PayPal. They have a guarantee. I've used it before when I got stiffed over a DVD. Got my money back.

PayPal and E-bay should be backing you on this one. If not, they wouldn't be in business.
