I placed an order this afternoon by accident and i need to cancel it

you didnt order them from this site

wrong site this is fixya need to cancel thru seller or purchase site

sorry but we here on fixya can not assist with this request . only the selling website can .

Fixya does not sell anything. You need to contact the seller directly instead.

go to the proper website , perhaps you can do it there but not here on FIXYA.com

You will need to open Amazon.com
go to the upper right corner next to Your Account
Next to that it will either say "try PRIME" and when you click that it will say Sign up for PRIME.
Or if you currently have PRIME when you click PRIME it will let you cancel PRIME.
If you do NOT want PRIME or not be billed for it you have to cancel it on AMAZON.com.

This is from the PayPal Website:

You can cancel only unclaimed payments. If the payment is complete, you can contact the person who received the payment and request a refund.

To cancel an unclaimed payment:

1. Log in to your PayPal account.
2. Click History.
3. Click Cancel under Order Status/Actions.
4. Click Cancel Payment next to the unclaimed payment.

Note:

• A payment is automatically cancelled if the recipient doesn't accept it within 30 days.
• If you paid with a credit card, it can take up to 30 days for a refund to appear on your card statement.

If you want to request a refund for a completed payment, here's how to find a seller's contact information:

1. Log in to your PayPal account.
2. Click History.
3. Click Details next to the transaction.

Either the site itself was taking to long to process, or your order has to physically be paid thru before you can see the placed and confirmed order.That has happened to me before on Dennis Kirk and also Bay.Just to confirm it I would contact them preferably via phone and reaffirm that the order has been terminated.Should not be an issue, especially if you have to have a paid order to confirm shipping and such...Thx, Jay!!!!
