Hi everyone, I am fairly new to eBay and the selling process; however, my daughter is an experienced seller that is helping me throughout the process so I am not completely clueless. I received a "best offer" today that exceeds the buy now price by 6...

I recently paid 475 dollars+10 dollars shipping for a graphics card a few days ago, but when I check ebay, it says that the listing was removed, but my paypal has not been refunded. The item says "We had to remove this listing from the site and you'r...

Exception for changing my address?

I won a bid, and then when I tried to change the address (it's for my mother in law in Scotland) it wouldn't let me, so I requested 'an exception from the seller.' The seller replied and said only, 'Yes.' But I still can't change the address. What do...

Listing removed, is this something to worry about?

On the 20th I bought a game console from a trustred seller. They have been a member on here for 18 years and I looked at their feedback and stuff they have sold and it all looked legitimate. I could tell they like games and movies and sell those and ...

Resolved! Didn't get order confirmation through e-mail while seller didn't send item in days

Hi. I'm not the most active eBay user, so, I'm kind of confused here and need some advice. First, I bought an item. Nothing special, a regular collectible stuff, about $100. The problem is - I didn't get confirmation from eBay on my e-mail. Which was...

I just had an offer expire and ebay sends me a message that reads "How bad to you want it? Try making a higher offer!" To this tactic I have only one thing to say, "How bad do you want to sell it?" A Free Meal Always Comes with a Catch. Be Prepared.

Overseas sellers listing as if from the UK........

How is it possible for overseas sellers to list items, saying they are posting from the UK, when clearly they are not in the UK. Very frustrating, you search for something UK only, buy item, saying will be delivered in 2 days, then the seller moves t...

Are China cosmetics bad for you

Chinese sellers have been selling so much makeup for really cheap. It’s like $2 for a whole eyeshadow pallet or even .79 cent for a lipgloss, 98 cent for eyeliner and they have at least 20,000 sold on a lot of these items. I’ve bought some before and...

Seeking Buying Advice - Gold

Not sure why, but I'm considering a small gold chain, around 10 inches or so. Just one of those things I guess, but not something I've done before. Purity is not a major consideration as long as it's durable, doesn't discolor or react with skin, wate...
