Hello,

 

I listed an item and someone one the bid, but then he decided he did not want to buy the item.  So it did not sell. So was I charged fees from ebay?

If you want your Final Value Fees refunded, and the ability to make a Second Chance Offer, or relist correctly,  you must do one of the following:

 

1. Complete the Unpaid Item process  (usually preferred)

 or

2. Convince the buyer to agree to a Cancellation Request,

 

Both options are available in the eBay Resolution Center

 

Here is a comparison of the timelines, pros, and cons of filing an Unpaid Item (UPI) report versus a Cancellation Request (CR)

Also consider putting the bad  bidder on your Blocked Bidders List.  (Stop back here for more information if you need to learn how to do that ... in fact, it would be courteous if you let us know you read any of the answers to your question).

The item did sell. if you weren't paid, that is a different issue. For that , you need to file for non-payment.
