ENOUGH IS ENOUGH

[the_designer]

IT’S OVER, IT'S THE ONLY WAY

I have read and read many comments looking for solutions to my issues with eBay and find there are none. I have now had enough of sales what seems to be controlled by eBay. I have had enough of eBay asking me to spend more money by promoting listings to generate sales. I refuse to pay extra money for something I am already paying for. In my opinion I pay for a shop that should make all my listing viewable all of the time, not when eBay feels like it. I have had enough of paying 10% to eBay for postage and packaging. I have had enough of eBay deciding in the buyers favor when I produce 100% evidence that the buyer is a liar. I have had enough of eBay giving my money away to buyers who are liars. I have had enough of eBay making it easy for buyer to commit fraud. I have had enough of eBay making these decisions without looking at both sides of the story. I have had enough of being told when to post. I have had enough being told item arrived late when it was posted on time; I have had enough of telling them I am not a postman. I have had enough of buyers being allowed to leave negative feedback without the seller having the same privilege. I have had enough of paying out of my pocket so eBay can keep a reputation of a stupid money back guarantees. I do not know what is happening to eBay, but I tell you this, I have had enough.

After many year on eBay I finally closed my account also.  Sooo much fraud.  Just wasn’t worth it.  I got my own sight now on Shopify.  It was easy and because I sell rare items I got traffic quickly.  I will recover in time with much less hassles.  Good luck to you.

Hope you  have  that "nuevo" or "nueva"  on line  selling state  sales tax thing all worked out for  those states  that are in the game as of July and prior.  Betcha' a diem to a doughnut" there will be many others joining soon like a snow ball rolling down hill until all 50 are in the added revenue game.

Good Luck!

Uh, a huge mass of us are NOT selling just fine, if you are, be happy.

I am with You: I have had enough also. But what is the solution...? My stuff is not for Amazon, Etsy very slow also..., Bonanza dead, Mercuri no good...The Facebook marketplace and craiglist don't work for me....Will try eBid...

Come back and let us know how eBid works out?

[zoot666]

Yeah I tend to agree mostly with the fact that sellers have pretty much no say or recourse when it comes to fake bidders and fraudulent claims....and even when we make a complaint to eBay we're told we cannot see the results or outcome.  I have had bidders retract after an auction then blame me for buulsiht when I call them out on it.

It's nowhere near as seller friendly as it used to be because people are lairs, fakes, frauds and most of all they're puusies.  Sellers make eBay a lot of money and in return eBay caters to the cheaters....

Have you ever seen taxes go down?

Only for rich corporations. Wonder what eBay did with their taxbreak, other than give bonuses to it's executives? They certainly didn't invest in more professional developers.

I'm with you. I have already started moving my listings elsewhere, and am already getting sales at a higher price than i had the same things listed for on eBay. Odd how 5 month old listings priced very competitively sit for so long on eBay, but sell within days on this other selling platform at a higher price.

That tells me all i need to know. I am done being blacked out on eBay for no good reason other than them wanting to "spread the wealth" and get more seller fees. I am done having every single order go to one of a handful of states in the furthest shipping zone from me, and virtually none to the shipping zones nearer to me just so they can get a higher FVF on shipping.

e bid is a total waste of time for US sellers, I've had a store there for 1 1/2 years, sold one thing. Don't buy a store there, waste of money.
