Resolved! Fees apply to sales tax?

Almost everyone would agree the fees are getting out of hand. I just sold an old phone and was charged 13.25% + 30 cent fixed auction fee. The kicker for me though is the fee also applies to the sales tax charged. It’s like really? I can see everythi...

Buyer put false negative information

One of my buyers put a false negative rating. I have had over three hundred positive readings and this one negative lowered my buyer status to 92%. How does one rating lower it that much? I am in the process of having eBay delete it. I will have to w...

ebay uses some dirty tricks to make "extra" money

a few examples:(1) when I sell an item, I understand ebay also charges fee on "postage", which is about 10% but it is ok for me. However it also charges fee on buyer's tax, which is ridiculous, seller doesn't receive any penny from tax (which is paid...

Worth Selling items under 5.00?

So - I had multiple listings up recently for 0.99. One sold & after the ebay taxes were collected, I was left with 0.01. Apparently they collect fees even if 100% of the collected shipping cost is used to purchase postage on ebay. This being the case...

I've noticed a buyer purchase a lower dollar item from me. But their account was made the same day and the only review they have is from a square trade. I've seen this before but not sure if it's a scam. Anyone have any info?

Buyer messages after purchasing to "fix the price"

I had a buyer write a lengthy message within the buyer notes of the order that's in my awaiting shipment page. They didn't write me thru ebay messages. In the buyer notes, they say my shipping price is wrong (too high) and that they aren't going to p...
