I tell her listen, he broke the rules.

Yeah, but it's her rule, not Ebay's rule.

I told her I would pay his winning
bid of $10 more so you would not lose anything and this foreign bidder can
easily be disqualified since he didn't respect the instructions in the ad.
She said she would get back to me.

How do you know he didn't respect the instructions in the ad? An overseas
bidder could have the item shipped to a third party in the US and that third
party could ship it to him. Or, he might be a regular traveler to here and
he might have picked it up.



Well, she never got back to me and now I see she left this guy positive
feedback already. Was this right? I mean I bid on the item since there was
no "ships worldwide" and the seller admitted to me she didn't know he was
a
overseas bidder but sold to him anyway.

Do I have any type of recourse on this?

I dunno. I'm not a lawyer nor an Ebay expert. But, if you're going to ask
someone to punish her, you'll be asking them to punish her for not limiting
herself to her own restriction.


It just doesn't seem right to me.

Her restriction probably didn't seem right to the Japanese bidder. After
all, his money is a good as anyone else's. Maybe the seller restricted
herself to domestic bidders because she didn't want to deal with the hassle
of overseas shipping. Maybe the Japanese bidder was understanding and made
it easy for her.



Thanks for any replies
