Sellers beware
I’ve sold over 200+ items in 3 years now. 100% satisfaction, no issues. But recently Buyers are claiming “Item not received” for most of the EBay standard envelope sales. ($1.29ish shipping) Four or five in the last month. I know as a buyer myself that EBay doesn’t often update their delivered statuses so, you’re saying if I was a dirt bag I could’ve just lied about items I did receive, but show not-delivered? Then I’d get it in the mail after I’ve been refunded? Congrats EBay, I will no longer utilize this nifty feature because once again, it’s completely one-sided for Buyer protection.

Bug Report for old shipping return address for new sellers
Hi, I wanted to report a bug I encountered. I've been buying on eBay for years, but have never sold until recently. I moved ~5 years ago, and have made multiple orders to my current address since then, and never to my old address. However, when I recently sold my first order, I was surprised to see the return address on the label was my old address I haven't lived at in years! I assume the following chain of events happened: 1) I make an account in city A, eBay sets that as my address for all purposes as buyer and seller 2) I update my shipping address after moving to city B, and ship to that address for years 3) I create my first listing, and eBay never confirms the correct address to use for selling. It defaults to an old address setting which I never knew existed 4) When I get the prepaid label (the default eBay recommended me), it has the wrong return address. I contact eBay support, there is no way to fix this on the label. I would really appreciate it if eBay could update the first time seller flow to check the address info before listing, as this was unpleasant enough to make me reconsider selling on the platform in the future. eBay phone support was helpful in learning this, but the chatbot was pretty dumb. As a note to future forum or Google searchers: Double check your addresses, all of the multiple tabs in settings, before making your first listing. If you use a prepaid label, there is no way to fix it after the fact.

Shipping label overcharge
I recently sold 3 action figures in 1 box . I was charged 46.00. It should have billed me 10.00. 55 listing I netted only 8.00. This has to be a mistake . How do I get a refund on the shipping label overcharge?

Illegal funds removed from an account that is not tied to anything to do with the issue.
Your AI does not have the intelligence to deal with the issue that I am trying to understand, resolve, reject or pull all my stuff off of eBay. I need to contact a human being who can dig into this with me. Aside from that, eBay took funds out of an account of mine that eBay has no authority to charge and an account that is not even related to this issue. I am considering filing THEFT charfges against eBay. My attorney will advise me tomorrow morning.

Balancing Shipping Times and Costs on eBay
Online shopping platforms like eBay and Amazon offer different experiences in terms of shipping, with Amazon Prime setting high expectations for quick deliveries. However, not all sellers can match these speeds, especially when using services like USPS, which can sometimes result in delays. Have you ever dealt with slow shipping affecting your online sales or purchases? What strategies have you found effective in managing customer expectations while remaining financially viable? There's a growing sentiment that eBay should rethink its fee structures to better support sellers who want to offer enhanced shipping options. For example, should eBay introduce discounted fees for calculated shipping since this option directly reflects what the buyer pays?

Shipping ACEO’s and other “small” artworks.
I understand that eBay Standard Envelope is available in certain trading-card and other categories. My items are original hand-painted ACEOs (Art Cards Editions and Originals), not sports or collectable trading cards. I am not asking about high-end value artwork, third-party authentication or envelope dimensions. I need to know how eBay classifies an original miniature painting on a card. Does eBay permit an original, hand-painted ACEO to be listed in any specific Trading Cards subcategory for the purpose of using eBay Standard Envelope? If yes, please provide the exact category path and confirm art cards are permitted there-not just printed collectable cards. If no, please confirm that eBay Standard Envelope is unavailable for original ACEO’s listed accurately as artwork, and explain which tracked shipping method eBay recommends for these low-value items. I want to follow eBay’s category rules and shipping requirements. Please provide a definitive answer to this specific question.

USPS shipping from and to Hurricane Isaias affected areas in Florida
The areas start with mostly 32--- zip codes include most of NW FL Panhandle. You can take things to AL, GA, MS, LA which is fine if you live close to them but I'm about 90 min. away and no reliable car for that distance. I wrote to the buyer and I guess she is OK with it because she hasn't written back. I have her box packed and just need to do a label but can't do that until I know if/when I can get to Dothan. I wish eBay would put a notice where the buyers pay that their things will be delayed. I haven't stopped my auctions yet because I'm hoping the PO will get their act together and start accepting mail at one of their many local LARGE facilities. They were only down for a few days after Hurricane Michael which caused mass destruction.
