Thousands of buyers and scammers abusing the return policy and the general ebay platform daily and nada from ebay.
This is the one overwhelming problem I was hoping they were going to address.

As Bob mentioned in his Vision Blog:
We also intend to start taking a stronger stance on the kinds of experiences that keep buyers from coming back—as well as protect you, our sellers, from buyers who take unfair advantage of returns.
Although we are not able to announce anything in the Spring Seller Update, we are addressing this currently. Please stay tuned for more details.
Thank you for selling on eBay.

Same as the answers on fb. "stay tuned", "working on it". Soon never comes. That was months ago, last year. So stay tuned...

Not as described auctions. A lot of sellers are guilty of poor descriptions
Poor communication or none at all
Slow shipping, poor packing, damaged upon arrival, DOA
Abusing the condition field. Listing a used item as new.

I expect ebay will offer sellers Return Abuse And Scam Protection Insurance for the low price of only $199.99 extra per month in the Fall Update. Gotta raise that revenue somehow.
More hoops, more threats, less help. It's the ebay way!

That's actually not a bad idea. I'd sign up for $10 a month but not more.

Slow Shipping ? that is at bottom of my list. Can't control how they pack to ship ,when It Is Ebay that Tell's Sellers Buyer Want Cheap Shipping ! then you Get Damaged items during transit . DOA is not 100% seller fault in most case's . Abusing the Condition field That is Ebay's Fault for limiting field standards for condition . I agree On China sellers . your last statment makes no since. Since sellers what to stop retail buyer scams and return abuse.

No, only ways to hurt the sellers more. This is how ebay treats their sellers. I have shown proven evidence over and over to ebay about the scam sellers and ebay lest them list and list and continue to rip off people. Good sellers pay more in fees every year and get penalized for being good sellers. Make me sick the way Ebay treats us.
new update
I have been an ebay seller for years and this is just plain CORPORATE GREED. I can not tell you how ashamed I am of what they are doing to us, the sellers. Ebay now reports your end of the years totals to the government if over a certain amount they say. I am not a business. I am someone selling off my collectibles I have sweated over for years, paid top dollars, selling them pennies on the dollar. The government is now taking 33 percent of your profits. Ebay every year makes it harder and harder for the top rated sellers. They are trying to eliminate them basically. This new change is a slap in the face once again for the sellers. We lose so much money from scam artist buyers, and the sellers have zero protection. No matter what happens Ebay is in the buyers favor always. I have had many cases over the years and have lost money. Ebay continutes to take any profits more and more from the sellers. It gets worse every year. You no longer receive any promotional sales help. They have basically eliminated free listings for their sellers. Use to be 100 free then went to 50. Use to get promo emails none now...listing are thirty cents a pop. Wonder why people do not list their items when ebay and paypal and the government it taking almost half your money on your items you paid way more for to begin with when you purchased those items. I am hurt that Ebay does not respect their sellers, who make this a WEBSITE! Without sellers you have nothing, yet ebay tries to hurt their sellers more and more. China and Hong Kong ect are out of control. I buy items for discounted prices and never get them. Months go by and ebay winds up refunding the seller, but China and Hong Kong close up shop and collect all the sellers money and skip out on ebay. Ebay loses also. I understand that. But the good sellers have to pay for the bad ones I guess. Is that the reason Ebay raises their profits with every change? I am just lost as to why they hurt the sellers so bad. PLEASE EBAY LISTEN TO US AND STOP LYING TO US! You update specifically says this..."
Why is eBay making these changes?
eBay Top Rated Sellers have told us they want more tools and options to grow their business. The changes we’re making reflect our ongoing investment in helping them do just that and to ensure the best marketplace health and competition."
HOW is this helping sellers? It is helping ebays profits only. Charging sellers more money and making it harder standards to sell helps us grow our business?
STOP ebay. Help the sellers profit. Stop the CORPORATE GREED. You need us, we soon will not need your. We are reaching out to facebook apps, ioffer, bonanza, craigslist and many others because you are hurting us. I just need to pay medical bills off and I am having a harder and harder time doing that thanks to ebay taking more and more profits and now the government intervention. Sad EBAY, learn to respect your sellers.
