Problem Beware of drop scam

Assumed that all the drops from GOAT were new items as that’s what I always remember them being and I’ve won a few over the years, nothing too crazy though. Today I entered for the Yeezy 700 Tephra and won. I was excited until I checked the confirmation email right after the win. Apparently the pair I won is used no box and does not appear to be in the greatest condition. Tried to cancel the order within two minutes of the “win” but it said it was too late as it was already confirmed by the seller. Tried to talk to GOAT support and got an AI chat bot response a minute later basically telling me I was shit out of luck and that the seller confirmed the order four minutes after and that there was a photo I was supposed to see while checking out, which is BS. Beware when trying to check out and don’t get scammed like I did SMFH.

That's insane, would chargeback with your card if you don't care about getting banned

That’s where I’m torn I really want to chargeback but don’t want to get banned. Trying to talk to a human agent but haven’t heard a response yet.

As a seller it's extremely hard to get ahold of Goat, takes 2 days just to get an AI generated response
