Are your fixed price listings somehow being converted/forced to auction format?

I believe the OP is afraid that her listings will be converted to GTC.

No, nothing is being automatically converted.  I just have not heard what specific day fixed priced listings will no longer be available.  I just list and think, is this the day?

I hope these sellers don't list too many in a day. They might pass out.

Oh,   It's been a great week.

 

1st I get a chargeback for Unauthorized usage from back in November.

2Nd I get THREE Unauthorized chargebacks 6 minutes after the "Buyer" hits 3 of my BIN listings.

 

I have all this money frozen in Paypal and the listings are hanging in my sold column.  Relist?    Wait?

 

3) Then I sell a regular customer something I already sold.    My mistake.

 

Great week.

"Yes Fixed Price is going away, Good Til Cancelled is Different"

 

What? The *format* of fixed price remains, the *duration* of that format will change.

Re: Every time I list something now I hold my breath....

Have I missed something in the ambiguous Seller Update with no "Fixed Date" for changes?  My understanding was that the change for Fixed Price listings will be that they will automatically renew every 30 days as Good Till Cancelled.  That would mean whatever free monthly listings you have in your store or as a basic member, would have to be monitored closely to prevent being charged listing fees on those listings that went over your free limit.  Which is all a money grab by ebay to make life more difficult for the sellers here.  I have noticed in some recent Fixed Price listings this week, that the template has automatically been filled in by ebay as Good Till Cancelled, and I was able to change it back to 30 days, but I'm guessing at the end of that time ebay will auto renew anyway based on their nebulous update of "mid-March" for the change.  COME ON EBAY, AT LEAST GIVE US THE DATE THIS CHANGE BECOMES OFFICIAL SO WE CAN START ORGANIZING OUR FIXED PRICE LISTINGS THAT ARE GOING TO BE ENDING THIS MONTH.  ARE YOU SERIOUSLY THAT DESPERATE FOR MONEY THAT YOU ARE GOUGING YOUR SELLERS FOR MORE.  FIRST YOU ADDED A FEE FOR BUY IT NOW ON AUCTIONS, THE SEEMINGLY ILLEGAL SELLER'S FEE ON SHIPPING CHARGES, AND ALL THE OTHER MONEY GRABS YOU IMPOSE ON YOUR SELLERS.  Remember, without your sellers, you will have no buyers.  Maybe that's what your plan is all along, to destroy ebay for the investors to make money in their nebulous and questionable financial practices.  Well, you will probably find out soon as a lot of sellers seem fed up and leaving.  I plan on staying for now, ending my store subscription, and running a few auctions.  I was a more recent seller in the last 3-4 years, started small, couldn't see the benefit of growing here with all the questionable policies against sellers, and will maybe stay in the future only to run a few auctions.
