Payout on hold, for eternity?

How long eBay keeps funds on hold until it gives up? Currently I have hold because I haven't sent confidential scans to them (and will not send). I haven't sent the item either and INR case has already been closed, still there is hold. What happens i...

Resolved! Ebay.co.uk car parts compatible vehicles

Hi, do anyone know how to add compatible vehicles with easier way? Because doing it manually is not worth it and takes alot of time, some of the items you can find in ebay catalog but not many, and almost all sellers have the compatible vehicles tabl...

Why can't I select UPS as a shipping option on my phone when I make a sale that listed UPS shipping?

Everything is right on desktop but on my phone it only gives me FedEx and USPS. I refuse to have/use FedEx on any of my listings so the buyer always selects UPS shipping yet I cannot choose it on the mobile app. WHATS UP WITH THIS?

Resolved! Nike and Air Jordan Authentication Sales

I have a couple of Nike, Adidas, and Air Jordans that I would like to sell through Ebay but I'm worried about my account being suspended if they are not Authenticated. How do I, as a Seller, go through the process of getting these shoes Authenticated...

Resolved! The system won't let me remove promotion from an item

I listed an item this evening utilizing the "promote this item" option, but decided a couple of hours later that the promotion wasn't really needed (not much by way of competing listings). So I went in and edited the listing (dropped the price a bit)...

Resolved! Sold the item, buyer wants me to text number

I’m new to selling on eBay and I know not to do anything outside of eBay, but why are they wanting to message? It’s so pointless when you can do it on eBay. They already bought the product just haven’t sent payment. How do I make it where they have...

Over charged for fees

OK fees are over the top on ebay and they are charging final value fee on Tax they take out. Here is the last sale I made and look at the fees. I have a no international shipping, but they charged if the buyer is out of the country. I am not even sur...

Account restriction

My account was put om restriction Friday the 2 nd for the third time in 30 days. Each restriction was unfounded (no good reason for doing it). I had to call the last time and explain why it should not have been restricted. The appeal was forwarded to...

Promotions not working?

I had my promotions end this morning and I restarted them about 30 minutes after they ended. I have 3 promotions running and they are not capturing all of my items and I have reported this to CS so they can escalate the issue. I know eBay says wait 1...

Dishonest buyers and sellers

I guess I need to vent somewhere, not having done that before in this forum. Like any other large selling platform, Ebay is like a Rorschach Test of society so I shouldn't be surprised to run across dishonesty here since it seems so rampant everywher...

Resolved! Do coupons help?

I am wondering if coupons help with sales, or does it just serve to add to the cost of doing business?

Resolved! Does eBay report to the IRS shipping fees as a seller's profit?

When I look at My Ebay and at the Seller section, it shows my items I have sold and eBay clearly marks a Buyer's shipping payment as the Seller's profit, even though it is not. So if the buyer pays $4.85 and chooses a particular method of shipping, a...

What’s up with the bleep who bid on a item and never send the payment when they win?

Every time I sell an item on eBay, the buyer either doesn’t pay at all or takes 3+ days to send the money. It’s madness, I have no idea why you wouldn’t want to send the money right away. Seems quite silly, it takes more time if you wait to pay and y...

Thank you ebay for bringing me this buyer, very much appreciated.

Yes, you brought me this nightmare buyer. I don't always look at buyer's feedback but this time I did and saw this.I didn't want to ship the item but had to because it would end up bad either way, now after he received it, he says it's defective and ...

I'm going to call @mr_lincoln for help since he made a flow chart, but anyone please feel free to post. I have been working on a variation listing for the last hour and just can't get it to work. I am getting the error message 'missing name in the va...
