CANCELLATION

In the event a custom offer is accepted, the offer is considered Beyond an active offer with Pending Confirmation, as such deletion of the custom offer does not change the status and a mutual cancellation or arbitration is the only method to void the offer.

To mutually request cancellation, select “request mutual cancellation” at the resolution center, a reason is to be provided by the individual proposing the cancellation and the receipient to accept the cancellation. If the cancellation is denied, the transaction will proceed as per normal. Mutual cancellation can be requested by either Buyer or Seller.

To request an arbitration, select “request arbitration” at the resolution center, the administration will be notified and supporting documentation and evidence will be requested from both parties to determine whether a case is valid or not.

Arbitration is the last resort that customers should use for handling disputes and cancellations, the arbitration request can take minimally 3 weeks to process and should not be used liberally. In addition to our Terms & Conditions, AstraEx retains the right to terminate user accounts based on perceived repeated malicious or trolling activity.

Malicious and trolling activity is described as and not limited to – inappropriate listings, multiple complaints from users, consistent issues with products received, lack of sufficient evidence to demonstrate a legitimate cause for voiding an offer such as change of mind.
