eBay Standard Envelop issue Fix Slated for July 7th

I had an issue two days ago. All my single-card listings in my eBay Standard Envelope Policy got switched to Priority Mail. So my listing was showing up for over 9 dollars. I tried to fix it by reverting to the eBay Standard Envelope. That did not fi...

Vintage Mahjong

Wondering if anyone else is selling a vintage bakelight mahjong set and getting constant low offers? I get nearly the same dollar amount offer from multiple buyers. They often ask for exact measurements. They all have USA mailing addresses but their ...

potential buyers rating/reviews

I recently received a message from a prospective buyer about one of my listings. They had a valid question, which I answered, and they then asked if I would take a lower price than what was listed. I didn't respond to the 2nd question, because i clic...

Seller Nightmare

I have an eBay horror story for you. Really makes me want to stop reselling. So… I sold this set of resin canisters. I sold the set for $300. It was still in the original shipping box with 2”thick styrofoam form-fitted boxes around each one. Very sec...

Bug: Can not change ZIP code in ship-to address. It is grayed out and there is no fill-in box.

Customers frequently give the wrong shipping address to eBay, then request us sellers to correct it before shipping. (It is, of course, dreadfully difficult to know your own address, but for now I'm reserving judgment). It used to be straightforward ...

Fake counterfeit claim, probably by manufacturer because I was selling them cheap to get rid of them

Long story, but we fournd ourselves with a fair number of unneeded Every Drop 1 water filters, so I figured I'd sell them (proceeds to go to my granddaughter's college fund, she's 19 months old!). After a number of satisfied customers, I got a counte...

Refund Fallout...

I sold an item to an individual and had a problem develope where I had to issue a refund of the payment. I have been selling on eBay since 2003 off & on but had not sold anything since 2012 and had forgotten or was never aware that payments to seller...

Too many sellers, not enough buyers?

Is e-bay losing buyers? Are there too many sellers flooding e-bay to TRY and make a quick buck?

Why can't I set MY own shipping price on MY own listings?

Ebay locks in a $4 price on my items because of something called a "shipping policy." I don't want nor do I need a "shipping policy". However, once it's born it's like a concrete demon from hell to get rid of. Now I'm supposed to send a 20 pound box ...

Sellers are being treated like slaves. May get kicked off permanently if they don't sell more.

I recently broke my leg and am now trying to recover using a walker. I can't go out and find new stuff. So eBay sends a nasty message saying if I don't improve my performance and sell more items or make more money for eBay I might get permanently kic...

Another issue I need help with . . .

I have an order I sent out. I shipped to the Ebay given address. The package shows it is being returned to me as "no such address". I emailed the buyer and gave them the address provided by Ebay. The buyer replied the zip code is incorrect. So I say ...

Resolved! Free Shipping snafu

I was commenting to my husband how sales have been pretty slow this last month. I go in daily and end and sell similar certain items. Yesterday I listed two new items. One being a sports patch. I picked the "free shipping" option because it is so lig...

Send Offers phenomenon

I find that most of the listings that appear in that section of Active Listings were those I just listed, including some listed less than an hour ago. Is that the same for you? I am guessing those are on people's saved searches? Only occasionally the...

What happened to the grey pencil icon that I always click on to leave feedback for a buyer

For years I have gone to the paid & shipped page to leave feedback for buyers who have left me positive F/B. To the right of the green plus sign was a greyed pencil icon to show that I had not yet left feedback. Then just click on that to leave my fe...
