Promoted Listing Fees

FYI - for those of you that use Promoted listings, it might be best NOT to use free shipping. The fee for the Promotion (current rates in my category 7.6%) does not include the shipping cost. So an item that costs $25 with free shipping will cost $1....

Resolved! How can a Seller sell hundreds of items for less than it cost to ship?

Are they getting a different mail rate? I cannot see how it can be done. This item I have at home. I've tried every kind of shipping box almost possible to man. It's a very heavy item, large and will not fit in anything but a legal size envelope BUT ...

If you think sellers are upset about GTC now, wait until the April invoices are sent out!!!

When Ebay sends out the April invoices to sellers the stool is really gonna hit the fan. When casual sellers and those not paying attention to this nightmare realize they are being charged listing fees for items they don't want listed/relisted Ebay b...

Hello, I've read the policy, and I want to make sure that to be a TOP RATED SELLER (not TRS plus) you do NOT have to offer returns. Is that correct? Several months ago, I allowed 30 day returns to be a TRSP, but I wish to not accept returns, but want...

Buyer wants to Pick Up Item

Good morning, everyone. My buyer lives nearby and wants to pick up his purchase. I'm fine with this, but wonder how I can accommodate ebay's tracking number requirement. Won't I get a defect for non-shipment? Thank you for your kind advice.

Buyer Requirement: Block Buyers with a negative feedback score

Just wondering.... If eBay will not allow a Seller to leave a Buyer Negative Feedback, then why is there an option under "Buyer Requirements" to block "Buyers with a negative feedback score".

What do buyers see when they can't leave feedback?

Something kinda interesting I noticed. Long story short, on a return request, a buyer re-wrapped up the package and used the "Refused Package" method (which is a big no-no). Maybe USPS caught on because I never got the package back (waited 2 weeks). ...
