om...
I bid on (and won) a book that cost, with shipping, $6.45. I sent
payment via PayPal the day after the auction ended, and later that
day, $3.45 was returned to my credit card. I sent the seller an email
yesterday asking him what the story was, and haven't heard back from
him.

On my My Eb*y page, I accidentally deleted the item before I could
leave feedback. I can still reference the item number for feedback,
but how long can I do that? Also, how do I get my three bucks back?

Am I overreacting? As a relative novice to online auctions, is there
some intricacy that I overlooked? I don't want to badmouth the guy if
he doesn't have it coming.

Thanks, y'all.

Give him a few days to get back to you first... was the book or the shipping
$3.45?
If the shipping, perhaps he is shipping it at no cost to you...right, & pigs
might fly!
Main thing...over only $6.45...ahem, now $3.00 don't get excited yet, wait &
see what he says, I had an old lady in England Refund me over half the price
of an item & the shipping because the dear soul only wanted to get a certain
amount for an old cartoon book of her grandsons & felt I had paid way too
much...truth is it was worth five times what I paid to me. :-)

Good luck
