      Please help EBay doesn't want to do anything
                               

      I just started with EBay I sold 6 products this week boy I bought those products at 75.99 expensive right I put it for 84 dollars and the buyer paid for shipping with eBay selling fee they took 13.98$ one of the products' selling fees was 14 dollars meanwhile when I’m paying for a subscription every month for my store how did that make sense? Can someone explain to me how that makes sense because right now I’m not making any money at all. I call customer service over and over again. They said there was gonna help but no help at all. Can someone help me in there? What should I do? I put the product a little bit higher because I don’t want to. To make Customer pay a lot of money when come to my store as long as I can make four dollars extra I’m trying to do four dollars extra. But it’s still not working for me. I don’t know if I should cancel the buyer's order or if I should keep on call customer service to do something for me. Because this is insane I’m going crazy over?

      Return labels
                                                                       

      Recently experienced some selling issues; When cancelling an order/getting a new label does not automatically VOID/Credit the old label. I think this should be automatic, other shipping sites do just that if you haven't used the label in 30 days. Did this change to be a new way for eBay to rip us off? hiding it in the https://www.ebay.com/ship/labels/my-ebay page is less than helpful. Removed. Are there any 3rd party sites to aggregate poor buyers/block lists? I have unrealistic buyers that message a bunch/send an offer about some $10 sale. Then they want a return after or demand "free shipping".. What sites keep this up to date? Is there a competing site (other than FB marketplace) to sell automotive parts? For automotive parts, eBay allows/forces a seller to offer a return. Usually buyer changes their mind, claim something other than reality; and we eat the fees on shipping and headache both way is terrible. The return "flow" on the website has for sure changed. Automatic return labels are now "negotiated" and way more of a PITA than before. You can't see the initial size/weight of the item you shipped, just the cost. You now have to have the buyer properly weigh/measure the item if you want to compare actual costs. Why doesn't eBay show us the original shipping information that we provided for each- screen capturing/recording this for every item prior to ship gives a terrible marketplace/shipping experience.

      Additional Charges for Fedex Shipping...Charged over $400 in additional charges
                                                       

      I am a new seller on ebay and specialize in shipping bike frames that typically weigh about 15 pounds maximum...I ran out of the typical box that I ship these frames in so opted to purchase a bike box from Fedex and paid extra to have them package my bikes. Now a week later, I am being charged OVER $400 per item shipped for each item I sent out with claims that each item that was shipped out weighed 90 pounds which is impossible unless they are stuffing the box with bricks. I have gotten no help from Ebay and I cannot get anyone on the phone from Fedex. Has anyone else experienced this!? This has eaten up any profit I had and is costing me a significant amount of money...it would have cost me less to just give the items away!

      Claim denied despite extra S&H coverage
                                                                                                               

      i am a new seller who purchased through eBay endorsed options, a UPS shipping label plus extra shipping liability coverage. I brought mirrored medicine cabinet to a UPS store, paid for a box and for them to package the cabinet and use the eBay generated shipping label. The cabinet was delivered broken, in pieces and have lots of pics from buyer showing how poorly the item was packaged (without sufficient padding). I refunded the buyer immediately which I thought was the appropriate and correct thing to do. I filed a claim with eBay and UPS and have been getting the run around for months with many calls and emails to UPS Claims and eBay. Neither is taking accountability and I am out nearly $700 and eBay still charged me for the shipping label, another $85. Has anyone had similar issues trying to get their claim approved - my next steps are taking legal action.

      Hey everyone, just wanted to say hi! I'm pretty new to selling online, especially on platforms like this. I'm a mineralogist by trade, and I'm looking to start sharing some of the amazing specimens I've collected over the years. I'm really excited to see what kind of interest there is and to connect with other enthusiasts. Hope to find some good homes for these treasures! @everyone!

      How do I increase my sales using competitive prices while NOT going broke?
                                                       

      When reviewing my store performance, I have noticed most of my listings have zero(0) views and clicks. My first month after opening my account, everything and anything sold quickly. It became a running joke that "Someone will buy this   fill-in-the-blank  for $5 on Ebay".   A year later and barely one sale a week. How do I get better exposure for my store and my listings without having to practically give everything away or give most of my profit to Ebay? How can I make money again on Ebay?

      Just take it and block it
                       

      Just block them. How are you doing on eBay? I recently became a sole proprietor. I opened a Payoneer account, translated my documents, and even bought something to resell on eBay. But when I listed it, I got the error "Your account has been temporarily restricted. For more information, including how to have the restriction removed, see your Messages in My eBay.{e280946-1244650x}." I scoured the internet, and somewhere they said I needed to make all the names the same, fill out the addresses completely, and try contacting Facebook support. So that's what I did. And they said I was a "danger" to the service and that I shouldn't upload anything, or even open another profile. That's what democracy and human rights you have! As a result, I ended up with back taxes and received the 6 bowls I bought. Thank you, eBay, for the excellent service!

      What level of eBay store should I have?
                               

      สวัสดีทุกคน, ผมอยากขอความคิดเห็นเกี่ยวกับกรณีของผมครับ : ฉันควรลงทะเบียนเพื่อเปิดร้าน eBay (หรือ eBay เพื่อธุรกิจ) หรือไม่ หากฉันต้องการขายเพียงสินค้า 10 ชิ้น (กระเป๋าแบรนด์เนม) ที่ฉันซื้อเองและไม่มีแผนจะขายอะไรเพิ่มเติมในอนาคตอันใกล้นี้ ฉันควรเปิดร้าน eBay หรือไม่ ฉันกังวลเกี่ยวกับค่าธรรมเนียมทั้งหมดในกรณีที่สินค้าของฉันมีราคาอยู่ระหว่าง 1,500 ถึง 3,000 เหรียญสหรัฐฯ ต่อชิ้น การเปิดร้าน eBay ดีกว่าการเป็นแค่ผู้ขายบน eBay หรือไม่ ฉันเป็นผู้ขายนอกสหรัฐอเมริกา ซึ่งหมายความว่าฉันไม่สามารถใช้โปรแกรมจัดส่งระหว่างประเทศของ eBay ได้ (ซึ่งฉันถือว่าเป็นวิธีที่ดีที่สุดในการปกป้องผู้ขาย.. ใช่ไหม?) สิ่งนี้ทำให้ฉันเป็นกังวลเล็กน้อยในกรณีที่เกิดข้อโต้แย้ง เช่น การคืนสินค้า หรือว่าฉันควรระบุว่าไม่รับคืนสินค้าหรือไม่ (ฉันควรทำอย่างนั้นหรือไม่?) ฉันกลัวว่าสถานการณ์ที่เลวร้ายที่สุดคือฉันได้รับสินค้าที่ส่งคืนซึ่งไม่ใช่สินค้าที่ฉันส่งไป T_T เนื่องจากฉันซื้อจากร้านค้าอย่างเป็นทางการ ฉันจึงต้องการส่งอุปกรณ์เสริมทั้งหมดให้กับผู้ซื้อ แต่ฉันไม่แน่ใจว่าผู้ซื้อส่วนใหญ่บน eBay ต้องการทำเช่นนั้นหรือไม่ มันค่อนข้างเกี่ยวข้องกับค่าขนส่งตามขนาดของแพ็คเกจ หากผู้ซื้อ eBay ส่วนใหญ่ไม่ต้องการรับสินค้า ฉันจะมีแผนไว้ในกรณีนั้น พวกคุณคิดอย่างไรเกี่ยวกับเรื่องนี้? ฉันยินดีรับคำแนะนำใดๆ ที่คุณอาจมี ขอบคุณล่วงหน้า
