When you start selling on ebay you should be looking around your house for more things to list because it's so easy. Listing was a simple process. You list it...any words searched that matched words in either your title or your description and your product showed up. I don't know what the system is now being but....I bought an item a few months back for over $215 on here. I have since relisted it for sale for 129.99 and the listing has been viewed 0 times. Charging so little this item should have sold as soon as I listed.

I sold my first item the other day and got only about 50% of what it sold for and the money still hasn't hit my bank account.

I put in an offer to buy someone else's item and it took the money from my account before the seller has even accepted

the offer.

Literally every part of this experience has been a nightmare. It should be easy, simple, fun. I consider myself pro ebay. I saw it at it's peak and it was great so I know what it can be. That unfortunately is no longer what it is.

Maybe no one is looking for that item

Being a new seller, they can hold your funds for 30 days.

No, they might have put a hold on the funds when you made the offer, but nothing is taken from your account until the offer is accepted.

On the Mercedes Pump-

There are others cheaper than yours

You have NOT filled out the 'vehicle fitment' so nobody that has that car will see it nearly as easily

What you bought for over $200 may not have been worth that much in the first place.

As far as 'buying': because so many 'buyers' were NOT paying (being deadbeats) the entire 'system' is just like an 'auction house in person' where you have to give a credit card or cash deposit before you are allowed to 'bid' so that the 'house' can be sure you pay.
