CPAP Accessories. 1st Violation was over a Mask. It WAS a Prescription Mask. I did not know because there were literally hundreds LISTED, and hundreds SOLD. But trying to work out that Violation, ebay was in the right, I was in the wrong. Mask label ...

Fraud

I have tried contacting eBay directly. Unfortunately the customer service is non existent. I sold an item to someone with a no return policy. Even sold at a discount. Guy received said it didn't match description. I said ok, if your not happy I'll ju...

For those of you who think you NEED promoted listings.

I was digging through some financials (ebay is a public company) and discovered that promoted listings only account for 2.1 percent of their revenue, not profit, revenue. That means that in the big scheme of things the overwhelming amount of listings...

When one door closes

I listed 4 pair of shorts, same size, 4 different colors. I have a drop down menu to select color, and offered a discount for purchasing 2, 3 or 4 pair. Client bought one, and when it arrived asked where the other 3 were. I pointed out they were pric...

Contacting eBay cust service on social media -- does anyone have a preference as to FB? X? Insta?

I need to contact cs for some real help and was wondering what experiences other sellers have had.

I sold a comic book that has distinct cover designs. This was not damaged and was in mint condition. The buyer continued to complain saying it was a defect even after I showed other had the same distinct markings. eBay then allowed him to return the ...

Just starting selling, and it appears eBay is making all the money!

I just started selling and am shocked at how little I'm receiving from a sale. Ebay makes more than 50% off each sale...while I provide the item, and do all the physical work. Am I doing something wrong? Not feeling too good about this.

I am finding exact copies of my listings not on eBay.

Just for grins, I entered key words from my eBay adds into the webbrowser.I got back my eBay listings, but what concerned me was the copies I found not on eBay sites, like gotosale.ru. What kind of protections do we have for this blatant theft of IP?

Resolved! Selling on eBay it’s worthless!!!

Fair decision from ebay, case 2

We are being banned from selling for the second time in a year. The first time, eBay made some serious mistakes that resulted in too many defects. After a huge investigation, the account was opened, but no one told us why.eBay told us that we were no...

How do I know the buyer received the return label?

How do I know the buyer received the return label? The return has a USPS tracking number in eBay, so I am assuming a label was provided for them to print, but I have not been able to validate this.I prefer not to contact the buyer without doing my du...
