Seller cancelled my order for a higher pricing offer
I know situations like these is completely fair game in mercari but it still hurts everytime it happens to me😭 for brief context: yesterday (05/19), I had purchased a fairly rare merchandise that is hard to find for a decent price from a visual novel I love, and I was so so happy to purchase the listing ~8 minutes after it was posted. I had to buy it immediately because I knew it would be bought quickly by others too.
Then not even about 10 mins later, the seller cancelled and this was the reason. Now, I am FULLY aware that mercari allows this, but man, this is the second time this happened to me and it still is so heartbreaking😭 I just honestly couldnt reply properly afterward, I had to block the seller cause frankly, I was driven by emotions after I recieved this message.
I honestly just wished these two sellers whom i had experienced this situation from, had communicated with me before rashly cancelling my order because I am pretty sure I could have worked something out, hell, if necessary, I would even up my payment within reason to keep the purchase (im desperate, okay💔).
But yeah, whatever
Edit: I am also kind of curious though, on what is the perspective of the OTHER buyer, the ones who offer higher prices to sellers in exchange for cancelling on the first buyer. Like genuinely, cus some of yall strike a nerve im ngl💔
