I placed a bid on an item just a couple hours ago and I was  wondering if it would be possible to cancel that bid?

Hi,

 

It depends on the reason.  Click on Site Map at the bottom of any eBay page then on Bid Retractions in the first column and follow the prompts.

 

If none of the reasons apply, contact the seller to see if they would be willing to cancel your bid.


What doesn't kill you, makes you stronger.

Your bid is a binding contract-only the Seller can cancel it-if they chose to-they are not required to do so.

You can also contact the seller of this item, ask your seller to cancel your bid, your seller can click on SITE MAP, very bottom of ebay page, then in middle colunm under selling click on cancel bids on my auction and cancel your bid, your seller may or may not.
