Resolved! eBay said Defects Will Be Removed But Never Actually Did

Not sure what happened here but: Around December 18th 2021 I appealed about 7 or so Defects on my account from the months of Oct-Dec 2021. The defects were mostly for a late carrier scan but some were for late shipping. The appeals were all accepted ...

slow-no sales not eBay fault...........

Sold item, printed label and dropped of at USPS after hours, buyer wants to cancel

I just dropped off package at USPS after hours. They allow you to drop item, but no one is there to help. I tried to intercept package, but website says I can't. I think it's because it hasn't really been scanned yet. I just got a message from the bu...

Can you cover part of an image or not?

A while back when eBay tightened up its adult listings requirements, I got a notice that you couldn't post nudity but you also weren't allowed to could cover up or use black bars on a photo image. The image had to be unobstructed for buyers. I recent...

Ebay Torpedoes Itself

Over time, Ebay has learned how to extract every penny from the users. It is almost impossible to sell without regrets. I have been on Ebay since they started, and MANY changes have been certainly good. But just looking at the system and what happene...

No recourse in fraudulent payment refund.

I often let my listings expire during the holidays since shipping has been so problematic at that time in recent years, so I don't often check my Ebay account during that time. Unfortunately, on 1/4 a payment dispute was opened on an item I sold on 1...
