ebay is a joke, a waist of time, makes no sense, I have to say I hate it now!

I have been selling on ebay ever since it started, it use to be so much fun, now I can't even make sense on how to sell anymore, not knowing if I got paid or not, no one you can talk to when there is a problem, it is a total waist of time, and the fees are crazy!!!

  Reading other post I can see I'm not alone in my feelings about ebay.  Please, please, please, bring back the old ebay, you will see the people that left will come back if you bring it back, if you don't it will surely die.

I have no issues with selling/listing on e bay.  Managed payments while I preferred PayPal has not been an issue at all.  All you need to do is look at seller hub and all of the information is right there.

 

Not to be rude but instead of throwing the blame to E bay try looking at how YOU are operating.  READ, Read and the READ some more.  The forums are a great source of clearer information if you cannot understand e bay speak.

This quest stands on the edge of a blade...stray but a little and you shall fail to the ruin of us all.

Did you just recently change to MP?

 

Many of us have been enrolled for months - next month for us is 1 year.

 

Embrace the changes and everything will be fine.  Good luck!

While I am most definitely NOT a fan of the new sellers PAGE and I sure did like PayPal over MP...I am not having such an issue with it to give up...they have not messed it up to that point (yet.)

 

If you are having a hard time with the seller's hub, you can try the all selling PAGE.  While I did love the old all selling PAGE format, we are never going to get it back b/c these new formats are geared towards mobile formats over PC/laptops.  More and more people are using their phones to purchase items and eBay as well as many other platforms are trying to accommodate them over us sellers.

 

Yeah...it sucks but it is what it is.  Like i said, yes, I prefer our old formats and PayPal but the new system is working okay enough for me.  I only list about 100 items a month at the most and sell about 50 to 75 items a month so it is manageable.  If I was a large seller I would be pulling my hair out.

 

The fees are about the same if you added in PayPal's old fees...remember, we are no longer paying PayPal for those fees.  Funny isn't it...outta sight - outta mind.

Which "old" eBay?What year for example?

EBay has been evolving and changing since the beginning

Well...maybe we all should just cut & paste this post to any problems/complaints on these boards.

 

Who cares if it's not relatable to the subject matter!

You'll notice, some sellers that left have already come back.

Once they find out it's not any better on other sites, they come back here.

 

 

Have a safe Memorial Day weekend.
