If the auction hasn't finished they should do.
There is a bid retraction form you can fill In but then if goes to the seller asking if they accept the reason or not? If they say no and you win then your stuck with it or you will be a non payer and a case will be opened x |

Well as long as you have explained why most decent sellers won't have a problem cancelling your bid. Good luck! |

Its a light summer dress and i put my bid in, i misread the postage and they want £7.00 for postage, all over items ive had similar has been £3 so i told them the reason, plus its only standard delivery. So if they wont retract i shall get ebay to look into how much they are charging p&p |

You can withdraw a bid for 3 reasons up to 12 hours before the end of an auction
basically you have to say you entered the wrong amount.
The other options are cannot contact seller by phone and description of item changed
Overcharging for postage ( postal gouging) is also an "offence" on ebay
and you should raise a complaint with ebay about the excessive postage
Go into the CUSTOMER SUPPORT bar at the top of the page on Ebay and a search box will come up. Type what you wish to know in there and a range of help topics come up
Hope that helps |

The seller still has to accept the reason and bid retraction though. |

Just don't pay it , ebay makes money out of people buying stuff from them , you can't get rated badly as a a buyer .
Ebay can ban you from buying , but not for a few non paying bids |

If you make successive bid withdrawals and sellers report you for invalid bid retractions you can be banned. |

"its sorted, shes reduced the postage to £3.50 which is better"
That's better! Nearly bought a tshirt for my lad the other day, it went for 99p and was one from next he had in a smaller size but has now outgrown, they wanted £4 second class, he's only 2, tiny bloody tshirt which I know damn well could be sent as large letter for £1.10 (ish) |

Yes you can cancel your bid. Look at your bidding page and somewhere, I cannot recall exactly where it is, but there is the ability to withdraw your bid. You are then given a choice of (I think) 3 options to tick. Tick the one that you require and your bid will be cancelled
