You can ask the seller to remove your bid. Explain what happened and that you still want to start at a lower price.
A seller has cut and pasted large parts of my listing description to his/her own listing for an almost identical item. I lodged a complaint on Sunday 12 March with Trade Me but the listing hasn't been changed. It's obviously copied - the other seller included a detail from my listing that doesn't apply to hers/his and the first line of my sale conditions! Trade Me used to be prompt at dealing with these small issues but my last experience was very frustrating as the Trade Me person couldn't see the obvious copying - think "The jug is an iridescent blue colour" changed to "The vase is an iri...
Well, I lodged my complaint about a seller not refunding the return cost of shipping for two items described as in excellent condition but both had faults. Both items were bought through Ping.

Thanks guys. I am concerned that the disputes process doesn't have a specific option for just returned to seller shipment cost refunds but I guess it will eventually work, or convince the seller to do the right thing. I'm absolutely astounded that she has even tried this given the photographic evidence versus her listing claims of excellent condition but suspect it has worked before. She tried twice to get me to take a partial refund and on-sell the broken ceramics because it would be "easier" (for who?) and when that didn't work, dragged out the return and refund process. She's not an of...
