Life after GoDaddy SUCKS!!

and after reading the many horror stories about QuickBooks I didn't even attempt that. I don't consider myself an idiot, but I am technologically challenged. I tried to find what I would need with eBay reports, but have not found what I need. The Exc...

Same amount bid by 2 bidders?

I am showing two bidders bid the same amount for one of my items about 30 minutes apart. How is that possible and how do I handle this if there is not a higher bid?

Seller "Protection" rant

Let me just start off by saying I love Ebay I really do, but I sure do miss the old Ebay where sellers had some sort of protection and at the very least could warn other sellers of nightmare buyers by leaving feedback. Most transactions go through wi...

Complete ineptitude across the EBAY platform & seller support

Never have I had such an awful online selling experience as I have using EBAY in June/July 2022. Sell a product and wait 2+ weeks to be paid for the item. Product has long since been received by the buyer but EBAY tells me they need me to provide the...

Im not seeing a grading system for packaging quality.

I see grading for how fast the item is shipped but I don't see any grade for the quality of the packaging. Anyone can take a poly bag and throw the item in it and seal it but that doesn't make the item safe from braakage, crushing or bending or water...

Resolved! Credit for shipping label

For the first time in years I got email that I am getting credit for shipping label. I only got such and email telling me I owe more. Why do I see the word TEST instead of tracking?
