Can you pull out from a bid on ebay?

Question

I wanna pull out from a bid on ebay, Can I or do I just get a negactive feed back?

Answer 1

Yes,

Click on the link showing the number of bids and follow the directions for RETRACTING a bid.

It is not the seller’s responsibility. It is your bid. You must retract it. If the listing has ended you need to pay for it. To late to change your mind at that point. It is a contractual agreement. You bid, the listing ended. You had the high bid you pay.

You can always put it right back on ebay and resell it. But once the listing ends you legitimately are required to buy it.

Answer 2

No, you won't receive any negative feedback but your total number of bid retractions in the past six months is displayed in your member profile.

When you are the winning bidder, you are obligated to pay the high-bid price for the item. As a rule, retracting bids is not allowed on eBay.

Remember that all bids on eBay are binding, except:

Sales of real estate or businesses (see the Non-Binding Bid Policy)
Sales of items that are prohibited by law or by eBay's User Agreement
Exceptional Circumstances Only

There are, however, a few exceptional circumstances (described in the User Agreement) under which you may retract a bid. These are if:

You made a typographical error and entered the wrong bid amount. For instance, you bid $99.50 instead of $9.95. If this occurs, re-enter the correct bid amount immediately after you retract your bid. If you do not place another bid, the retraction will be in violation of eBay's policy and could result in your suspension. Please review the retraction guidelines if you need to retract your bid.
The description of an item you have bid on has changed significantly.
You can't reach the seller. This means that you tried calling the seller but his or her phone number doesn't work, or you have tried emailing a message to the seller and it comes back undeliverable.
Timing Matters

There are special rules about retracting bids, depending on when you originally placed the bid.

If you place a bid before the last 12-hours of the listing: You may retract that bid before that last 12-hours, if your situation meets the above description of exceptional circumstances. You will not be allowed to retract that bid during the last 12-hours of the listing.

When you retract a bid before the last 12 hours of a listing: you will eliminate all bids you have placed on that item. If you are correcting a bidding error, you will have to bid again.

If you place a bid during the last 12-hours of the listing: You may retract the bid only within one hour after placing the bid (and if your situation meets eBay's exceptional circumstances description).

When you retract a bid within the last 12 hours of the listing: You will eliminate only the most recent bid you placed. Bids you placed prior to the last 12 hours will not be retracted.

If you are not allowed to retract your bid during the last 12-hours of the listing, you may contact the seller to request that your bid be canceled. The seller will have the discretion whether to cancel your bid.

Accountability


eBay will thoroughly investigate bid retractions. Abuse of this feature may result in the suspension of your account. Bids retracted within the last 24 hours of listing can be viewed as bid shielding, which is a serious violation of our policy.

How To Retract a Bid

To retract a bid, use the Bid Retraction form from the below link.

Note: There is no equivalent for bid retraction in Buy It Now listings. Once you've confirmed your purchase, you are obligated to pay the seller.

Answer 3

no, you cant officially pull out a bid, but you can talk to the person that is operating the auction, and if they feel like it, they can excuse you from paying and just not send the item.

Answer 4

You will get a negative i think. I know for sure you can only do it 3 times before ebay cancels your membership.

Answer 5

Write to the seller. They don't want to just not get paid.
