Subject: 
Should I stop payment on a personal check if an Ebay auction item has been relisted??

On Ebay, does anybody know what it means if an auction says the following:

"This auction has ended but the item has been relisted. Go to item now."

Has this happened to anybody here?

I used "Buy it Now" for an auction for 9 Lego Shell sets and exchanged
several emails with the seller.  He gave me the total amount due and where
to send payment to.  I let him know that I mailed out a check to him the day
the auction ended.  Now the auction has the above wording at the top of it
and is running again on Ebay.

Has anyone had an experience with an item being relisted like this?  Does
this mean that I should stop the payment?  Is the seller trying to sell the
same items to someone else?  Or is there a legitimate reason for something
being relisted?

Thanks for your help.

Bob, Check the sellers feedback. If it is bad or non-existent, you may have a worry but I've relisted many items that way when I have more than one. Without knowing what the auction # is or the seller we can't look into it any further. But if has (...) (24 years ago, 8-Feb-01, to lugnet.market.auction)

Bob wrote in message ... (...) Chances are the seller has another batch of the sets you bought, and he's saving himself typing by relisting an existing auction. I used to do that frequently. It's not ripping off eBay, either: they charge the seller (...) (24 years ago, 9-Feb-01, to lugnet.market.auction)
