Hi fellow eBayers, how are you dealing with this stay at home mandate? For me it's the same day over & over. Even need to check the news to see what day it really is. Still selling & thankful. 1 or 2 items daily. Yeah, helps kill maybe 20 minutes. Th...

small silver lining

I am a bookdealer and still work in a good deal of volume for one person (ie: I don't only sell 2 $100 books a week). Today I picked up a box that was heavier than I expected and felt it in my lower back. All of a sudden I realized that it's been wee...

eBay is Turning into New York, but at least Cuomo gets it!

Seems eBay keeps conniving to reap more fees from the sellers, to wit, the new Good Till Cancelled policy to snag fees from sellers to neglect to end their unsold listings after 30 days. As sellers leave because eBay's hoops keep getting harder to ju...

busier than expected

At the beginning of the shut down I said to myself that if my backlog ran out at least I could make lemonade by doing a lot of inventory work and digging into boxes of stuff that seem marginal. Tons of comic books for example. I was taking the older ...

what is your experience with Facebook Marketplace?

I've been having some interesting experiences trying it this week. By far the prices are too high. I was messaging with a woman who had some management exam books listed for $50. I said OK, kinda high to invest in books to sell , but willing if condi...

Ebay selling fees

EBAY just charged me over $160 to sell a $625 stroller +$75 shipping. **bleep** is going on? This is ridiculous

Has this ever happened?

Was there ever a time where a buyer made a post about an issue they were having with a seller and that same seller made a post about having an issue with that same buyer? I wonder if that ever happened.
