Do you send offers to Watchers of your items for sale? If so when do you send? When the item is first watched or close to when listing is ending? Do you think it's worth sending g offers?

FYi Fellow Members: eBay is much more user friendly than eBay Motors!

No doubt about it. Regular eBay is much more user friendly than eBay Motors. Their customer service telephone number shuts down MUCH earlier than Regular eBay. I've never had a problem revising a TITLE LISTING on Regular eBay but I'm definitely UNABL...

Resolved! TRS Plus

Hello everyone,I've noticed that some sellers have the "Top Rated Seller Plus" badge displayed on their listing pages, even though they are not offering same-day or 1-day handling. For example, one seller is listing presale items with a release date ...

Do you ever find it takes ridiculously long to add photos to a listing?

I'm doing some listings on the site tonight. It's been 5 minutes, and the photos still aren't loaded. I'm trying to add three photos to a listing, and it's just taking forever. I've noticed it sometimes seems to take a long time (like I do the whole ...

What is 'auto-pay' and when did it start?

Noticed that some of my 'wins' are auto-paid...out of the blue. Not sure I like it.

Buyer claims CD is so scratched it skips and wants a partial refund.

I have been selling CD's from my own collections. I have some CDs that have seen better days but they work like a dream and I have had no complaints. I make sure I take pictures and let them know its has marks. They have been tested. I did get a comp...

Resolved! Return for Replacement?

I have my listings set up so that when I get a return, I issue a refund, rather than offer return OR replacement. This is because 99% of my listings are singles. I have a buyer who received the wrong color of an item. (The item was in a sealed box an...

Buyer can't make offer

I have a listing where I received a few offers. One of them I countered and haven't heard back. Now I have someone who messaged me and wants to make a higher offer but there is no offer button on the listing anymore. Why would that be and anyway to f...

Resolved! Goofy Lil' Return

Actually this is a two-parter, but neither one of grave consequence; I'm just curious about a couple lil' things. 1. Anyone ever see a return with 2 different reasons for returning? I just got this item back and when the buyer first initiated it, I n...

"I've been an eBayer for 20 years" posts

There seems to have been an uptick in posts from supposed long time ebay users expressing dismay, surprise, outrage, etc at something or other. Maybe it's fees on shipping/tax, tax on shipping, wanting to cancel orders, not knowing how to handle retu...

Package was sent out of country

I sold an item and the ebay tracking shows it went from Texas to CATANO, PR instead of Florida. I have been trying to get in touch with someone at ebay to ask about this or get some kind of USPS tracking number so I can reach out to them. The ebay st...

Why does eBay suggest Offers to potential buyers who just looked at your listing

I’ve never understood why eBay suggests we send a seller offer to someone who just looked at your listing vs watched it. You’d think eBay would suggest we make offers to the folks watching an item but that’s not the case. The reason I think it’s caty...

eBays changes to existing My eBay layout.
