question about setting up a sale

It's been a minute since I ran a sale and I ran into a problem. When it came to selecting listings it was oldest to newest which I wanted but also selected only 200. How do you edit that to select more?

Selling higher priced item

Ì am selling a stamp worth $550 and am wondering what do you use to protect yourself from the item getting lost or damaged? I see insurance is good for $100.

May Experiment: Ended promotions, sales up 16%

April, May and June are typically kinda slow for me. I decided to try an experiment, on April 30 I ended all my promotions on all my listings, which had been at 2% across the board for a couple of years. I know the month of May isn’t over yet, but as...

Seller Performance Deficits are Out Dated

As a brick and mortar multichannel retailer that has over 25 years in retail, I want to raise a concern about eBay’s current out-of-stock (OOS) defect policy — specifically the 0.50% threshold. In traditional retail, an 8–10% OOS rate is considered s...

U.S. Sellers: Have you sold your items to at least one buyer in all 50 states?

The only states I have NOT had a buyer from (yet) and I've been on eBay for over 25 years: AlaskaMontanaNorth Dakota I'm just curious if any of you kept track of where you sent your items all over the country. Regardless of how long you've been selli...

Should I accept the return?

I sold a 20mm watch band, clearly indicating which watch it was for. Received return request "doesn't fit". Should I accept or not? I do not offer returns and the offer to decline is one of the options. I suspect this may have been a remorse buy as t...

Syncing Inventory Between eBay and a Website

I run an eBay store in which I have linked Wonderlister, so that I have an inventory of my listings and can relist older listings without worrying about them disappearing due to eBay only storing them for so long. I am currently looking at opening a ...

putting it all on sale or use send offer?

I was reading another thread, the OP got the advice to put his store on sale. I did that some months ago. The problem was that I didn't know if books sold due to the sale or would have anyway. Also with the books at sale price I wasn't able to do muc...

Payouts Policies SUCK and so does eBay

I have used eBay for 20 years or more. I have always been mostly a buyer and sometimes a casual seller. I hadn’t sold in YEARS until recently. Whatever has happened at eBay’s corporate level is mind boggling. Although a user for 20 years, I am subjec...

Marquee Auction ... VERY disappointing ...

Just got an eBay message blurb about the Marquee Auction ... I clicked the Bid now link and saw ONLY 266 items were being offered ... VERY disappointing, not to mention nothing I would be interested in AND it was void of items in the categories that ...

How do I find previous sales

I've recently noticed that a few items that I've sold in the past have somehow been relisted without me knowing it and then the way that I find out is that somebody purchases the item that's already been sold and I don't have it so is there a way tha...

E bay fees are simply too high.

Some days it feels like you are just working for e-bay. The fees are high - and if you underestimate the shipping you are sunk. Then after 250 items per month you pay another 35 cents to list. Not fair to the small seller who doesn't want to scale to...

After the buyer paid for shipping they messaged me and wanted to meet locally to pick up the item.

All of the correspondence was done through Ebay messaging. I assumed that if they left positive feedback after I met and gave them the item the funds would be released. When or how can I get Ebay to release the funds?
