Merriam-Webster Dictionary Definition for my Khoros Enemies

Apparently, an English word that has been in use since the year 1531 that means "not interfered with" is now unacceptable on this forum. Or maybe, you don't like what I have to say and that was the very best you could come up with to "interfere with"...

Resolved! Why does Ebay keep asking me to reduce a price over and over again when it does not sell?

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...

The ominous eBay "Algorithm". Fact or Fiction?

I see quite a few references to the eBay "algorithm" but I haven't seen any evidence that one actually exists. Does the algorithm exist? How does the algorithm manifest? Is the algorithm room with us right now? Ok, last question was meant to be light...

Cancelling Re-listing on Auction Item

I do not see an option to cancel the re-listing of an auction item. An old forum suggestion mentioned clicking "Sell Similar" but there is no option there. I am a new user and the item will be relisted 8 times. My only option has been to end the auct...
