I've done it before...here's what I've done.
(if eBay denies the refund request)
Revise the auction to another one you have waiting to put up.
Go to the duplicate (and hope you don't have bids)click revise. You can then put a new title in and new description and new pics.
At least get your moneys worth since you've been charged for the auction being uploaded.
Good Luck, Donna
