Hello all,
I apologize in advanced if this topic was covered prior, but I used the search and came up with nothing.
Back to the topic, I bought a new heatsink of a seller using a buy it now option, and proceeded to pay. Instead of being able to send the funds to the seller, paypal sates that "the person could not receive funds at this time". So I go and send the seller a request for total, and he/she emails back stating he cannot do anything because he/she is on vacation and does not tell me when he/she will be back.
Now I am wondering, is there some sort of wrong doing or technicality with ebay that should prohibit this? What I mean is that I used the "Buy It NOW", so that I could buy it NOW. Is it right for a seller to advertise his item as buy it now, and to turn around and say the item cannot be bought because he/she is on vacation?
Help me out all, or tell me I'm wrong and he/she is right and why?

PS - No where on the ad listing did it say that the seller was not available, I might add.
