The seller has contacted me and wants to give me money to go away as he says there was another party who believed that he had made a deal outside of ebay to buy the car and he feels bad about it.

The seller probably wants you to offer him more money over and above the BIN price. I'll bet a higher offer from you would turn him right around and cure his bad feelings and possible seller's remorse. I wonder if your taking of the BIN price caused him to think that it may have been too low and now he's shuffling around in the dirt with his hands in his pockets trying to get more money for the car. Makes you wonder if there's really another buyer.

That's just my opinion, I could be wrong.
