NEW eBay Price Match Guarantee Feature?

Hello,I hope this message finds you all well. Today an interesting thing occurred on the app that has never happened to me before. I am going to write this in point-form.1. I sell an item to a buyer2. Buyer immediately requests to cancel sale after p...

Resolved! What to do now?

A buyer bought 2 items from the same lot. The ad said:"Lot 2..." On her invoice it was clearly visible she paid for 2 items and there were 2 photos in the ad. Despite of that she claims I supposed to send her 4 items ( 2 from 2 lots) which is non-sen...

Tax on coins

I never paid state tax on coins I purchased when they were listed in their own category. Ebay put COINS: US in the COLLECTIBILES & ART category. Since the first of the year I have, as today, purchased 65-coin listings and 23 of them were taxed.On 4/2...

Can't revise a Buy It Now price so now my item will never sell if I can't lower the price!

When I clicked to revise item the subject isn't highlighted and can't click on current amount to lower it. And because I've been @$%&ing around trying to contact someone for over 45 minutes I don't have time to list any new items now. Totally ridicul...

Promotional Advertising Required

I have been selling on eBay for over 30 years. I have seen all the changes and even worked for them for 5 years. With that said, I have never seen my sales go from $3000.00 per month, with 1,000,000 impressions, to $900.00 and 340,000 impressions. Wh...

Why is shipping so high? and keeps going up. Why can big corporations offer free shipping.

Why is shipping so high? and keeps going up. Why can big corporations offer free shipping. Does it matter what gas prices are doing? Economy. Political. I just want to hear what the community thinks. I know it's not ebay. Ebay actually has discounts ...

Help: Buyer has scammed me out of $1450 and counting. Ebay has already

Hello. First off, I'll do my best to write, in a timeline fashion, of what has happened thus far. On 03/25, the said buyer purchased an Arcteryx Jacket from me for $730. Another on 03/29 for $720 and then 4 more on 04/03 for the amount of $4,320.I wa...

Can I in my policy or in general discriminate against top rated sellers if I don't want to sell 2 em

Can I in my policy or in general discriminate against top rated sellers if I don't want to sell 2 em because I am noticing all of the privileges that they seem to acquire are privileges that they are widely abusing unfortunately hurting the little gu...

Resolved! ebay email "Your listings with calculated shipping will default to eBay Labels discounted rates"

Got this notice from ebay today that buyers will be offered the discounted rates at the same (? assumed but not specified by ebay) that we usually buy labels at, unless you opt out by 5.15. Question: A hypothetical case - at present, buyer pays $5 fo...

WORST PRODUCTION SINCE 2015

I have consistently done about $60,000 each year since I joined eBay in 2016. I've seen a few slow periods but always seemed to level out. THIS TIME - WHAT'S UP ? It's the worst. No sales at all. Few "Lookie Lou's" and it has been that way for months...

No Feedback Removal For Sellers - UnAcceptable!!!!

I've had 100% positive feedback for 3 years until some old lady left a negative review because She doesn't know what size 3mm is vs 4mm even though there's a Photo in my listings that shows the bead sizes on a Ruler!!! I sent several photos proving w...

Dear eBay, please stop insulting your best sellers!

It's insane, how can be a late delivery by USPS the seller's fault? Fix that idiotic rule!

If I don't pay for "promoted" is it being hidden?! Common item w/ZERO views 15 days later.

Isn't the huge cut Ebay takes out of the total sale supposed to cover the cost of using their platform? Why do they "suggest" ANOTHER NINE PERCENT for "promoting"....? And why do a lot of my items (that are reasonably common, say 10 are always listed...

They lie, they steal, they abandon

Rather than helping customers and assisting them, ebay is focused on doing whatever they can to squeeze every dime possible out of naive sellers and buyers. Even if it means lying and deceiving. It is a disgusting feeling to be taken advantage of by ...
