Why does Ebay automatically always favor the buyer? And of course, Ebay offers no customer service.

Figure this is the best to complain about the frustrations with Ebay. I had a customer claim "not as described" because they didn't like the color. Anyone else have trouble describing the exact color of something? Right, because there are nearly infi...

PayPal Customer Service Phone#

Does PayPal no longer have a Customer Service by telephone? Called every number on the list and there have been no service reps, just a recording to email them. Anyone know of a number where I can talk to a rep?

Resolved! Would you ship Tupperware in a plastic mailer?

I have two pieces of rectangular vintage Tupperware I'd list separately. Weighed alone, they weigh 10 oz. Add a box and it pushes them into Priority Mail territory. I'm considering listing them as boxed weight and if they don't sell in a couple month...

Multiple Bids for the same amount

Number 1, after 20+ years being a member of Ebay you'd think in that time a $Billion company would make it simple to actually contact someone within their company. That Customer Service wise is PATHETIC.Number 2, how is it possible I received 3 bids ...

If I get ripped off on that sale..............

Buyers need to have PATIENCE!!!! I cannot control slow USPS during the pandemic. I had a sale for $750 US. 2 weeks later, the buyer puts in a claim & will want a refund if the item doesn't show in a few days. It is TRACKED! Last update was only 2 day...

Feedback forum

Hello everyone! I am starting to sell more on eBay trying to learn all the rules and tricks to it and recently ran into a bit of a problem. Yesterday I sold a small LEGO set weighing around 1 oz. I then used a bubble mailer thinking that this would b...

High page view issue

Has anyone else ever had an issue where the page view falsely jumps through the roof? I was at about 100 then about 5-6 weeks ago it jumped to as high as 15000 on some days. The issue is its lowering my impressions and nearly killed off what gets pro...
