Resolved! Non Payers

What is EBAY doing about people who bid, but never pay? It happens about 10-20% of the time. People just don't pay. I know EBAY doesn't care, but it's a pain.

Resolved! I am very confused about ebay charging sales tax when my state doesnt appear to require it.

The new sales tax collection took me by surprise, so I called in and spoke with a rep at ebay. I was told it was now mandatory, and I just accepted that. I will say that for Christmas I did buy considerably less on ebay than I was planing on, after a...

Fix for scams

I wish eBay could and would run a "sting" operation on the site and prosecute offenders. Too many sellers getting hammered with all these scammers.

Anyone else slow? Last few days it's really bad. And I have ALL my listings promoted right now.

What I want from ebay for Christmas

I really really want ebay to open up more categories for variation listings (especially the ones like Decorative Collectible brands where they actually took it away when it was already on the old list). I would also like to see them make a way to do ...
