My buyer received their item on December 1, 2022, but did not open or review the item until today, January 9, 2023. The item was shipped via UPS. What recourse do I have? Is it likely UPS will honor a claim this late? I have not even asked buyer if t...

Are accepted offers without a payment becoming a problem

Once again I had an offer for a product. I accepted immediately and then no payment. For a small seller like myself its happened way to many times. Any ideas, comments are appreciated. Thx.

Someone stiffs you on a payment and you cannot give them negative feedback?

Buyers and Ridiculous Feedback

So we sell GREATLY discounted items from retail and this buyer puts in a feedback, and I quote, “some sellers sell this item for 300 dollars, It’s not worth it. “I paid 149.00 for this item and it is so small….Not too pleased with purchase”. I replie...

Authentication is scaring buyers away

I just listed a pair of Nikes $80 and that shoe goes to authentication. It is priced right / new - and normally would have many views and watchers. Now it’s not. It’s what I consider a utilitarian running shoe. I have a return policy. Buyers do not w...

Resolved! Why is deleting a listing so difficult?

Does anyone else get the feeling ebay does not _want_ us to easily delete items we have listed? It's utterly maddening. FWIW, I have looked at other posts about how to do it, but I do not have the tabs/options on my screen that other people suggest a...
