I have a question about a product description that I cant get answered from the seller. I see no way to contact Ebay about this. Is this correct? Am I correct that there is no one you can talk to at Ebay about any issues you cant resolve?

Listing of purchase has disappeared. Dispute with seller over description. I cannot verify anything

I bought what I believed to be a sterling silver cuff bangle. What I received is a brass based bangle plated and marked 999. When I went to view listing immediately it arrived, it had disappeared with a message 'item no longer available for feedback'...

Ordered a lot of items in advance for a dance recital. Delivered in March. 2 of the items have catches that broke upon first wear - we only noticed at weekend when we finally gave out costumes to try on. Seller refusing refund - my argument it, even ...

Language Translation

I have been into every area of ebay trying to find out how to translate the language on packages to English. I have used the help and automated sections, there is nothing in these for translation. I've even tried the browser setting but they do not w...
