Resolved! Can I keep a reserve at eBay and can I get a more complete list of transactions?
This is a two part question: 1) Is there a way to tell eBay to keep, say, $1000 at eBay so that when they charge me for things like shipping, it comes out of that reserve rather than charging my AmEx? 2) Is there a more complete view of the transacti...

Relatively New Seller... Algorithms???
1. is there a way that I can see how many people visited an item page on a particular day (instead of seeing my statistics over a period of time)? This would tell me how many views the page is getting in a day. It seems like some days I sell a lot, t...
Refunds
it seems to me eBay is an accessory to fraud when they rule in favor of a clearly lying buyer, they're policies will eventually lose them business when they keep giving peoples items away without compensation.
Looking for inventory sourcing tips
Hello all, I’m in a bit of an inventory slump lately due to either lack luster selections at my local thrift stores or thrift store prices being to high for me to have room for profit. I’ve started looking around clearance at big box stores but the c...

Resolved! Who's Using Promoted Listings? How's It Going?
I never used this promotional technique but it was suggested to me by a eBay representative recently. My sales are lagging and I was trying to figure out how to get more views. It used to be that being a Top Rated Seller put your merchandise in a bet...

Due to the upcoming New Year holidays, (1 week) all courier companies will be open after the New Year holidays. Waiting until then causes a big problem for the buyer and the account. (Currently handling time is four days) What are the changes to the ...
Seriously Ebay? What's going on with sales?
Something isn't right in the system. It just isn't the market. I've been through rough market times before I've never seen sales this low in over 10 years! This is not right. I don't know what you changed in the system but whatever you "updated" or c...
Clothing sellers running themselves out of business...
I sell clothing (and frankly, don't know why) and I can't bear to watch this newest wave of YouTube trained clothing sellers run prices right into the ground. They crank out 50-100 new listings a day. They state that the clothing is washed, yet they ...

I am still very new to the ebay platform...I opened up shop in late November of last year...for the most part it has been very successful, however, there is this one very aggravating feature that ebay insists on that, basically, seemingly, places und...

Buyer sent me an offer. I counter offered with my usual discount. Buyer then sent me a counter-offer WITH AN EXPLANATION. I accepted the counter-offer with only a brief glance at the explanation since the offer amount was within a few dollars of what...
After I sold a camera about 7 months ago, the buyer has a complaint.
I sold a Olympus OM-1 camera last September (9/16/21), carefully checking out all the functions and all was working just fine. So now, after 7 months, the buyer has a complaint that the built-in meter is not working. So much time has gone by since I ...
