It depends if you're going to use ebays crappy service to punish someone... which does nothing... OR...
Or if you're going to hire a lawyer, assuming it's a big deal.
It's a legal contract, so yes, there can be damages awarded to you. Small claims court is 15 bucks.
Probably not, although it is possible. You would have to sue under a Breach of Contract theory, and even then all you could recover would be the item that you paid for. If you didn't pay, you couldn't get anything.
No. I am sure it is at will to sell to anyone.
No. Because the seller has the right to terminate any bids on any of their auctions for any reasons. If you bid on an item and the seller terminated your bid, they are perfectly within their rights to do so.
Furthermore, if you used Buy-It-Now and didn't meet a seller's requirements (payment type, or if you have negative feedback and the seller wants you to contact them before buying, etc., etc.), then they also within their rights to terminate the sale.
Only if the seller backed out of the AUCTION. If you were setting up a deal with him off-auction, you don't have a let to stand on.
If you go to Ebay main page, there is a place to click on to register a complaint.
