Sellers be aware of buyer's scam

I recently sold a Gucci boot that I wore once to buyer. 1st he posted a comment saying "Wonderful and item was just as pictured. I love the boots as they are brand new". Then he wore the boots, trashed it, said it was not authentic (not his 1st time ...

How was 2021 for you?

Just curious if 2021 affected others as well. Now that the year is over I can say 2021 was pretty bad for sales compared to the last 5 years. i started doing ebay fulltime in 2016 and sales were strong from the start and only got better, with 2020 be...

WARNING TO SELLERS! EBAY IS HOLDING YOUR PAYMENTS HOSTAGE!

Warning to sellers: I just shipped a sold item and ebay is withholding my money because of their **bleep** "Direct payment" switchover from Paypal which I did not authorize. Interestingly, Ebay went ahead and charged the shipping to my Paypal account...

ShopAirlines

Is ShopAirlines a scam? Does anyone have experience with this buyer?

ZERO SELLER PROTECTION!

Ebay does not protect Sellers! I recently sold an electronic item to a buyer who claimed it did not work. I do not sell items that DO NOT WORK! My feedback speaks for itself! They wanted $80 refund off of a $500 + item and claimed two of the Key comp...

Resolved! New Ebay Policies

Resolved! Question about 1099-K

Does the 1099K figure reflect your sale prices, including shipping, or is it the money they paid out to us after they kept their fees? In other words, is it the total of the money that the payment processor deposited into our bank account, or is it t...

1099-K Tax Form

I was told by eBay that I would not receive a 1099-K for the 2021 year as long as I did not have over $20,000 in total sales plus 200 transactions. That the new IRS program does not start until 2022. I just got a 1099-K from eBay for the 2021 year an...

Unreasonable buyers, it never ceases to amaze me....

For the most part, my buyers are wonderful. Most are very understanding, especially when it comes to shipping delays due to unforeseen weather. I took eBay's advice and crafted a very nice, informative email and sent them out to all my buyers from pu...

It takes multiple times to edit bulk items to stick. This is after you find the items you want to get, select them, and then when it switches to the tool and begins to process them. sometimes it loads them. You make your changes and it dies/hangs. So...
