Good till cancelled

I'm new and trying to understand everything. All listings are listed till sold. Am I correct in that the listings repost automatically every 30 days? If that's correct, do I have to pay a listing fee for those items every 30 days?

Listing an unusual book (or book-like item)

I'm listing some books again after about 15 years of selling other stuff or nothing. In that time eBay has eliminated almost all of the categories it used to have for books. I'm baffled: how do I list something unusual so that potentially interested ...

One lousy sale all of January. Ebay seems to be totally dead. No buyers, barely any watchers. 20 years on this site and looks like it 's time to move on. Anybody have a better venue to sell on ?Just a big waste of time and effort.

Buyers Cancelling Orders Minutes After Making It

Quite recently it seems I've had an influx of buyers cancelling orders shortly after making them which is fine if they changed their mind but I still get charged that $0.30 PayPal fee each time it happens. Is there a way to set a cancellation fee for...

Inseam item specifics has been glitched for weeks!

Ebay updated inseam for pants and jeans with the addition of "in" for inches in the specifics so now the majority of jeans listed are in the "unspecified" category which is probably affecting everyone's sales. For many jeans when trying to slim down ...

Did anyone else decide to no longer accept returns because of Paypal's new policy?

So, as I'm sure some of you are aware, Paypal enacted a new policy a few months ago where they will no longer issue Paypal fee credit after a refund is given. Recently I sold a $525 and the buyer asked for a refund before I shipped the item. I'm accu...

Is there a way to get rid of the STAR rating above your own listing?
