Negative Feedback because buyer bought something they didn't want....

By far one of the most comical negs I have had. Today I get a random message from a buyer: "You are a deceiver and a thief they go hand and hand don’t ever expect me to fall for that again or to buy from you again. You should not be in Ebay. You’re n...

Buyer can't make offer

I have a listing where I received a few offers. One of them I countered and haven't heard back. Now I have someone who messaged me and wants to make a higher offer but there is no offer button on the listing anymore. Why would that be and anyway to f...

Why does eBay suggest Offers to potential buyers who just looked at your listing

I’ve never understood why eBay suggests we send a seller offer to someone who just looked at your listing vs watched it. You’d think eBay would suggest we make offers to the folks watching an item but that’s not the case. The reason I think it’s caty...

Resolved! Modify Shipping Weight

1. I'm new to some of this and I listed a number of items that are somewhat heavy (electronics). I weighed each item and found that when I package it, that it will typically weigh about 1 pound more. I tried to modify my listing, but it's greyed out ...

Another buyer attempting return switch-a-roo.

Today I had a buyer file a return for an item arriving damaged 5-6 days ago. The item is not fragile by any means and you'd actually have to really put in work to damage it. Its a steel support frame for a washer and designed to hold 500+ pounds. In ...

So I Literally TOLD a Buyer that I Listed Something...

Longtime seller - question on when to send item

Hi, I am a longtime seller that sells high end jewelry here and there. When I used to sell here, the buyer would pay and then I would send the item out. Now, I sell an item and I'm supposed to ship it out without receiving the funds directly in my ac...

Hello, i sold and shipped an item but the buyer scammed me and didnt actually pay

How do I report the buyer

Ebay allows deadbeat buyers and bidders to seriously abuse good sellers.

No wonder many sellers are leaving. A young American baseball card seller put up an excellent analysis on YouTube. Does eBay realize that many sellers that left were very good buyers? Not everyone wants to buy Chinese if that's the plan.

Funny Appeal to a return

When you appeal any decision eBay has wrongly made in the buyers favor you get their standard email back almost immediately even though no one has read yours. Thought this one was funny: Customer returned my item saying “not as described” but when I ...

Best listing format for clothing?

I often get confused on the best listing practices for clothing items. I've read numerous threads on here and Reddit on what is the "ideal". Some people say it's not necessary to put the gender. I see plenty of sold listings for much higher than mine...
