eBay fees improvement idea

eBay please stop including Shipping Fees in Seller 'Order Earnings'... it is misleading

Why is eBay doing this? On the Order Details page, for the Order Earnings, they leave the shipping included in the total, to make it look like a higher amount. This feels intentional, in an attempt to 'soften the blow' of seeing what we actually earn...

Resolved! eBay is charging me LOTS of fees, I tried to close my account but it never got closed by eBay

Resolved! Ebay does not allow sending PDF files

I think it's ridiculous that ebay does not allow sending pdf files between sellers and buyers. Every once in awhile we screw up and we send a book to the wrong customer. That usually means two customers have received the wrong books. To remedy this w...
