I have listed for 24 years now - and this last couple of years have been a disaster with selling. Many times (and my prices are probably the lowest of anyone) I list an item and it does not sell - so Ebay tells me to reduce it by 1.00 or 2.00 or 3.00 or even 5.00. I do this many times over. Then i dont sell it the second time so they ask me to reduce it again and again - I may as well put it in the trash ... yes shipping fees are very high in the entire world now - but if I have to sell an item for $5.00 and shipping is $20.00 nobody will buy it because of the shipping charges... i have been told by ebay employees on a few occassions that i should put the item price low and charge high shipping??? this is not the way to do business..at all. I have tried everything - i was selling for example Lovely china cups and saucers at list of 10.99 - 14.00 or 15.00 and could never even sell them at all - and finally put them down to $6.95 and sold one - the rest i gave away to somebody. Ebay really is confusing sellers and buyers both to no ends. It is not a good thing to keep changing your rules -regulations - etc... who can remember all of this stuff..... make it simple like it was years back and only small changes ... i am really appalled at all these changes and cannot figure out half the time what i can do and have to call or chat online and many times do not get a straight answer at all. I have a lot of items to sell on here but will soon end my relationship with Ebay after my 24 years as it is insane the way you have to guess and keep on contacting Ebay online or phone and then get no firm answers... or they keep passing the call on to someone else...
Sad indeed to something that could be even something bigger.... i am a senior and lost to no end.
