Can't find the answer to this. Me and my husband have separate ebay accounts linked to separate PayPal accounts. Will they be combined at the end of the year by PayPal for tax purposes? Over 200 sales and over $20000 combined. Thanks

PAYPAL FROZE MY ACCOUNT SO HOW DO I MOVE ON WITH EBAY?

Long story short, Paypal froze my account, and despite repeated efforts to find out why, including a personal letter to corporate because you cannot mediate on its website as they claim, I still was never told the reason. Anyone can see by Googling p...

Sometimes I have repeat buyers - usually I try to treat my buyers very well and help them with what I can, and that seems to build trust and the buyers tend to want to shop with you for future purchases. I was thinking about whether to go a step furt...

Why in the world would eBay change it so you can't research completed auctions now?

Today I was researching completed auctions to determine which price point to list my item. Part of this research for me involves reading the completed auction description of similar items I'd like to sell to do a comparison of condition, included com...

Tis the season for non-payment?

I'm waiting on more unpaid orders than usual. Two have been given reminder emails from Ebay. One guy wrote to say he'll pay Sunday so he'll get a reminder too. I wonder if more people than usual are too busy to pay? or tapped out for funds?
