I did exactly that last night, I blew a weeks wages in a single purchase and was struck with instant buyers remorse.
Today I received a message from the seller
"send please me additional $30 as remote is your postal address "
Having already paid for the item and its postage I replied.
Dear Yoda
Sorry I am unable to spend any more money on postage, Please send the item or return my funds.
Kind regards

My partner bought a little collectible vehicle a couple years ago from a private seller in Adelaide.
The wording/description included a statement saying that all rust had been cut out and repaired, and that it was mechanically A1 with nothing to spend.
In truth the motor needed in excess of $800 worth of work by a qualified mechanic to get it up to scratch,,,,,,,,
And,,,,,,, the drivers floor pan was that badly rusted that there was a piece of plywood under the carpet to stop your feet from falling through.
I bought new floor pan panels, cut the old ones out, and mig'ed the new ones in.
Good ol Fleebay refused to honor its buyer protection policies.
