Imagine you get a good offer (payment request) from a merchant. You
would like to accept that offer, however the merchant has changed his
mind.

Usually if the merchant has not delivered, then at that point it's not a problem and he is allowed to change his mind. It's only if they change their mind *after* you pay that it's a problem, right?
