Ebay seller

Selling on Ebay is like getting poked in the eye with a stick. Trying to get my money from them feels like getting kicked in the nuts. I am 1 and done all they need is to involve PayPal so it can be torture.

Resolved! 27 years and eBay is finally pushing me out!

Been a buyer and seller on eBay for 27 years, not a business, just casual. Just always too many rule changes, that are not transparent. This last one is probably going to cost me. eBay allowed a seller to list an item in an improper category, I did n...
