I think the way he worded it left a little confusion. He says the seller sent him a second chance offer, but then said he submitted an offer. I think he meant to say he accepted the seller's offer.
Anyway, to the OP's question, I don't know why a seller couldn't back out of a second chance offer. There are threads here where sellers back out of eBay sales, so I don't think a second chance offer would be any different. I'm not saying that it's right (and I'll even say it's unethical), but what can you do really?

I couldn't find anything online that could either confirm or deny my question, so I thought I'd ask here to see if anyone has had experience with this.
