Resolved! I need advice. I have not sold anything on Ebay since the 1990s.
I bought two items at auction a couple of days ago. I wanted help pricing them. [But after seeing the comments later about fees, etc., I'm wondering if Ebay is the place to do this. I have also had a very difficult time resolving issues. Yes, they ar...
Resolved! Which category? Collectibles vs Pottery and Glass?
Good morning my fellow EBay friends. I’m in the process of updating about 300 of my listings. Many of them are vintage dishes. Many of the listings were originally created before the category changes were imposed on us all. Sigh. Since there no longe...
Resolved! How to unpromote a listing?
Hello. I promoted a listing a few days ago but I see that it has since garnered only one view, so I'm thinking I don't want to have to pay eBay for if I ever sell this item. How do I unpromote the listing?
Resolved! Just my ramblings
This is why you don't open that drawer to see what's in it. After working so hard to clean my desk off, I opened that drawer. I now am stuck (knowingly stuck with) five Dewy Tree Masks sets, a Manscape Lawnmower (don't ask), two anti-perspirants and ...

Resolved! Why is Ebay charging us Final value fee on state sales tax?!! Theyr'e netting more profit from us!
Why is Ebay charging us Final value fee on state sales tax??? ALL of that state tax collected goes directly to the state, yet they're charging us FVF on it! This is outrageous. It's especially painful when you sell a higher value item. They're simply...
Age Old Dilemma of Buyer Feedback Solicitation
Someone far smarter than me needs to crack this nut. Starting to get rolling on eBay Sales and maybe 1 out of 10 buyers leaves positive feedback. I package securely, I ship same day consistently, I include packing slips, I send gentle shipping messag...
IRS tax form I just got for 2020, states x2 earnings, PayPal/eBay transactions double dip - 1099-K
As the title says, I found proof through comparing my PayPal/eBay transactions from that year, when I was using PayPal for transactions prior to eBay direct payments, that they are being reflected/reported twice which is absolutely insane. PayPal did...

Items are disappearing

Very disgusted with EBAY. I Have been a member since 2008. I cannot get any help from EBay.
How do you get a hold of EBAY when you have a question that doesn't fit under their topics. This site has you going in circles with no answers. Their fees are increased and the service has decreased. Very Disappointing!
