I found out today while filing UIDs. Buyer left positive on unpaid, unshipped item, and I cannot strike him.
Even tried through http://rebulk.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?CreateUPIDispute ... no luck.
If you have a competitor, go ahead, buy a house from him and leave a PFB leaving them with eBay invoice to pay.
This platform is falling apart.

I will test the system between our accounts.
Have you tried marking "paid" and then "unmarking"?

Have you called them on this? When I called about my buyer that paid $1 for shipping - refund and reinvoice - I couldn't file UPI. I was told they were having problems with buyers cancelling payments and sellers being unable to file UPIs.
Maybe this is yet another glitch and the UPI system.
What a mess!

Jakee, I did not call eBay. I called them once in my life and I cannot think of anything right now that would make me do it again.

I'm sorry but I had to laugh. It's so true. :^O I had a drink beside me when I was on the phone with them and I rarely drink. I knew it was going to be frustrating but I still had to call.
The guy I talked to was infuriatingly stupid to talk to but the girl was a bit helpful.

Anyhow, I just bought something through a buying account and left pos FP.
In my selling account I was able to open the mutual UPI, no problem. The "buyer" agreed to the cancellation and all worked well. There was no need to mark or unmark anything.
Not sure what is different about your transaction that you can't initiate the UPI.

How long after the sale did you try to do the UID?

Buyer left positive on May 27.
I tried to file UID on June 3, but I do not want to file it anymore, turns out we had some agreement with the buyer, so in this case it's actually good it did not let me. We get 10-20 questions daily, so it's harder to keep track after 2 weeks.

You started a mutual cancellation not a UPI giving the buyer a strike. That's the difference. I could have started a mutual too but I didn't want to do that for a few reasons - 1 I don't like them paying and walking away. I feel eBay needs to know that buyers are doing that and 2 my buyer really wanted the item and if she saw cancellation she wouldn't have agreed to it and I'd have been out the FVF.
Try again but don't file for a mutual cancellation and see what it says.
eBay likes to say there aren't a lot of buyers buying and not paying and they base it on the numbers of UPI's filed. If sellers don't file then eBay doesn't know what's going on.

On another note: buyer emailed me today to say how upset she was she could NOT leave me POSITIVE feedback because now it has to be done in 30 days.
Why do they keep changing things that don't make sense to change?

I don't remember reading an announcement about that though.
