why does ebay have such distain for its sellers. Up untill 4 weeks ago I was a top rated seller with 100% feedback (1150 transactions) then I made the mistake of selling to low rated buyers (little or now feedback), at which point I recieved 2 neutral and 1 neg feedback, one was for dust in the bottom of a vase, second was not as described shoe size, when detailed measurements were provided, and my favorite was not shipping to a non verified address, all resulted in my calling customer (non) support, at which time I was denied any resolution, now as a result my seller rating was lowered and my funds are pending on paypal. So I removed all of my listings, canceled my current active auctions and will be moving on, I am sorry I wasted 4 years of my time thinking ebay was great, when it is a terrible environment for sellers, and the people who make policy should be terminated. Just type ebay unfair to its sellers in Google and look at the thousands of complaints. I will be making it my mission to trash ebay on every venue possible, and I will be in good company, also paypal is a joke, 4 years of flawless transactions and they put my funds on hold?????????????????????

yes absolutely you are right !! I hate ebay for this unfair discrimination against sellers. After having so many positive sales , a first time fraudulent buyer with no feedback and no previous transaction lied and got her money back and left me negative feedback which ebay refused to discard. Shame on Ebay !!!
Ebay doesn't understand without seller there is no buyer.. Shame on ebay siding with fraudulent buyers who say any untrue story to get money back: Ebay without checking into the matter, with a blind eye refund buyer. Shame on ebay!! Hopefully there will be better companies out there soon.

I agree. I hate Ebay for this reason. Closing my account. Bonanza is a better choice .

Ebay just does not get it. If there are no sellers, there will be no buyers !!

I can tell you I didnt know we would get taxed this year for what we sell.?. I was just buying and selling off of here. I didnt make any money. I was just doing it for fun. Sometimes i make a few buck but i did not keep the receipts for what i purchased. Now the IRS is going to think I made nothing but profit?. I dont know.. But i can tell you I am not selling ever again..I'm Outta here !

I'm dealing with exact same situation, I had an account for years, got burned twice for $110+ item, buyer got a refund didn't send back my items, so I closed my account for years, finally opened another n have been doing OK, had lots of good feedback and out of the blue PayPal decided to hold my funds n expects me to ship a $400 item n pay the $75 shipping myself, n then get paid in 21 days+ so I'm canceling sale, n done. On top of eBay n PayPal both taking a fee out of shipping so I have to overcharge for shipping or eat out myself to not get dinged on feedback for over charging. What a huge scam they are running. I am so over it!!!!

Ebay is moving towards big business selling on their platform. The ones that have the bucks to return and give returns. In other words they are pushing out the mom and pop shops.

You do know you can sue Ebay directly and win , when dealing with fraud. Small claims court, very cheap go for the max with extra fees.

I say bail out now. Don't pay Sh*t and keep on trucking. Then make Ebay suffer. They will still pay back the buyer
