Ebay fees

eBay pitches a 1 Hitter in prep for MLB Playoffs!?!

If eBay were a baseball team and this past weekend was a game where each sale was a base hit then they would have pitched a 1 Hitter on my account ... perhaps in preparation for the MLB Playoffs LOL! I honestly cannot remember if I ever had a 1 sale ...

I decided to risk a defect.

It's pretty much never a good idea to escalate an INAD return to a case as a seller. However I wanted to see what would happen by being totally honest. When the buyer sends an item back you are given 2 days to inspect. So I did that just that inspect...

Resolved! Are impressions organic or manipulated?

I looked at a chart of the past few months with my impressions and what I see is shocking. I update my existing listings frequently. For the past 6 months I've been updating my listings using PL's and I've been setting the rate at .01% higher than th...

Resolved! If I can't block guest checkout, what's the best way to protect myself against fraudsters?

I sold a bunch of items last year with no issues(my feedback is 100% positive). Then one guest checkout dude came along and bought multiple items and claimed all were damaged upon receipt. eBay incentivized his fraudulent behavior by refunding him fr...

Search Results showing way more than keywords?

Maybe this is common knowledge here already but every time I search for an item I get way more broad results including other part numbers, sometimes hundreds of results but when I sort by lowest first it shows the actual results with only my specific...

So I reported a listing for ONLINE Trump Sneakers....guess what happened next?

I'm sure you've seen the many listings for PRESALE Trump Sneakers that are in violation of the presale policy because they can't be shipped within 40 days. But there are others for just an ONLINE PICTURE of the Sneakers.I reported this listing by a 0...

Resolved! No longer use "available funds" toward a purchase?

I'm a seller and buyer but thought this was best here. I made a purchase yesterday and my credit card was automatically charged rather than allowing me to use available funds for the purchase. Apparently if a seller has the bottom two boxes checked i...
