Ebay's double edge sword....

So, like many sellers on here, I kind had a very slow past couple of months, well pretty much since eBay has really pushed their promoted listings idea. At first I was like many thinking, "That's a crock! Why should I have to pay extra just to have m...

How would you deal with this "Give me refund and no return request"

Here is a new one. Get a message from a buyer saying that an item is missing a piece and that he wants a refund. I take a look at his picture and at the listing picture. While I am sure that the original item had this small piece attached, my listing...

Search manipulation policy warning ?

So I got an email from ebay saying one of my listing was using search manipulation and was removed. And threaten to suspend my account for 3 days if it happened again. Now my title had multiple names in it for what I was actually selling, so what bra...

Item Specifics - Does it help find the needle in a heystack?

I just listed a watch but noticed a hundred of item specifics, this is crazy, why do you need to describe the item with all those fields? Sorry, It's now like finding the heystack that has the needle.

Charged final value fee for sending the customer my address for local pick up

I got a $228 fee charged and a suspension because the seller and I exchanged contact information so we could figure out the best way to ship the large freight item listed as a local pick up. eBay actually told me that I could not give them the item a...

Photobucket?

Do any of you sellers still use Photobucket as an image hosting site for embedding photos in your descriptions? Does ebay allow embedded images in descriptions?

Unhappy with new format

Is anyone else frustrated by the new format on ebay? I have always listed my items as BIN's for 7 days. Now they MUST be "Good Until Cancelled" if I want them to be BIN. I HATE the fact that when I relist, the settings change and automatically includ...

Best tactic - old price marked in book

I'm just curious how other sellers handle this. Some of my books have prices inked in on the upper right corner of the title page. In some cases I think I marked them maybe even a couple of decades ago for a planned yard sale (I know better than to m...
