Charged Fee to Revise Listing

[josti4150]

When revising a price on an item eBay wants to charge $0.35, is anyone else having this problem? 10 /9/2021

No not a problem here

Check that you did not accidently mark extra listing features

Sounds like it is charging you to "list" that one again - you did not accidentally hit sell similar vs edit?

Are you sure they're actually charging it?

This came up a few months ago and I think it was someone on eBay who said it was a glitch and you wouldn't actually be charged.

We see this once in awhile but haven't really been concerned about it. I guess we should be.

Did you add a second listing category?

You're not the only one @josti4150, see this post I put up last night.

Yes, this is a known glitch when ebay wants extra fees for just  opening the listing and not touching anything there - even when free listing allotments are available.

Moreover, when listing new items - no listing fee is displayed, only when you open existing listing. Ongoing ebay glitch.

Usually what happens is the seller has used all the basic "free" listings for any category........but then makes a listing outside the "select categories" which is the next tranche for free listings........and gets charged....

The glitch is that it's showing a fee on the listing form but no fee is charged once you submit the revision. I put that information in the thread I linked to above.

Are you seeing charges for these revisions on your list of payment transactions?

That is not the case, I can list new listings in the same categories for free. Have you tried clicking on Revise listing before making suggestions? There are quite a few sellers who have noticed this glitch.

I am not clicking on anything if I see .35c. When I see 0, then I will do revision.

OK. I went through with the revision on a few listings last night and despite a fee being shown, I wasn't actually charged after submitting the revisions. This is an error that has popped up several times over the years. I respect your decision to not take a risk based on my word alone.

That poster is just trying to help. Even if they click on revise that doesn't mean they'll encounter the same glitch. Every time this issue pops up, only a select number of users are affected. I have yet to see it impact site-wide. I've seen this issue at least 5 times and this is only the 2nd time I've been affected by it.

A couple of days ago I noticed the fee on a revision just as I hit the revise button.   I also noticed the same today but stopped and have a call in to Ebay about this.

I have just finished up a half hour phone call with Ebay support.  They could not tell me why it shows a revision fee of .35, and I believe the support person said he couldn't see it on his end.  I made a revision while on the phone with him--per his instructions--and he could not find any fee charged for the revision.  We also checked the payments tab--fees--and nothing showed.  Nor did the earlier revision I had made.  Thus, it appears to be only a glitch.           Being a suspicious **bleep**, however, I will be keeping a closer track on the fees.
