Hi Everyone! I hope this finds each of you doing well. I just wanted to share my feelings about my store and possibly closing it. The year has not been kind to many of us. Some are doing great. Others doing awesome. A mixed bag. I've been doing this ...
I know that potential buyers can do whatever they want, and that they have many reasons for putting an item on their Watchlist--but am I alone in wanting to say to them "For the love of all that is holy, will you PLEASE just bid?!!" End of rant.
Outgoing shipment stolen from my mailbox. Entering trak # on USPS website brings up error code 500. What do I do?
I just sold an item. And at times I like to look back to see what other people had the same item for sale and what it actually sold for.So i looked up the item I had just sold and to my surprise someone else had the same item for sale using all of my...
I have recently sold an item for $12,000, eBay vaguely explains that expensive items and I quote expensive items are subject to a longer hold. Period. But they do not define what that dollar value is. I sold the item obviously because I need the mone...
I am soooo confused!!! Why is it I never even get close to what I think I will get after sale. I sold a purse for $10 and did not promote and buyer paid shipping and tax. My end profit was $5.76 which is like 43-46% taken out by eBay??? When they cla...
I made an offer on a item 10-26-25.The offer was accepted and I was required to make immediate payment.11 days go by and the item was not shipped yet.Seller ignored 2 messages from me.Filed a INR 11-6-25 and was isued a refund. I tried to re-order th...
Within the seller hub, many of us have become familiar with the "Your Price is XX% Higher Than Similar Items, Adjust your price yada yada yada." This popup, while sometimes inaccurate, is really great when you have over 1000 listings and speeds up th...
I had about 12 to 15 auctions. When they ended, some have no restrictions so if they didn’t pay, I just cancelled and relisted. Others have autopay in 7 days “buyer still wants to shop…” then some I couldn’t combine the shipping because one of the au...
Does eBay want my money or not? How am I supposed to be productive on the site when I am constantly being forced to log in and lose work in the process? Tried getting help from support and they just treated my like I'm an idiot. Granted eBay support ...
Isn’t it interesting how eBay will delete your comments when it gets too close to their questionable business practices. Previous eBay employee told me that they steal things from the public all the time. They create a sale get the merchandise shippe...
Buyer Bid $125 and Sold for $100. Once a bid is received, the Make Offer Option Button is supposed to disappear.
When you made a mistake on a shipping label, cancel the label and print another one.... Before: After you canceled a label the order would be under "see all orders".Now: After you cancel the label, the order goes back to "awaiting shipment/print ship...
I love a lot of things about ebay, but I am frustrated by their inventory presentation. Is there any way to have the items show by date (like most recent to least recent). Also, according to price. Inventory presentation is one of the very few things...
I want to list for sale my broken trolling rod but I'm not sure how to list it. The trolling rod works good, as does the reel -- it cast out far too! The only problem is that when you get a strike there is no notification. So you'll be sitting there ...
