    I purchased the item from the seller, paid in full at the time of purchase. I received notification that the item was shipped, then immediately received notification that I was receiving a refund. No contact from the seller, no explanation of what happened, nothing from Ebay on why the item was NOT shipped as indicated. Nothing. Then, the item was re-listed by the seller with an enormously inflated shipping fee. Bottom line, they canceled my order so they could re-list it for 5 times the amount

    We did contact you that there was a listing error, no shipping was included in the original listing, therefore were refunding the item and re-listing with proper shipping charges.
