Promoted listings

I don’t get any more prompts to do promoted listings at the end of listing my items. Why?

Never had this problem before. I had about 30 auctions ending at the exact same time. 7 of them had multiple bids on them. Auctions . I checked my awaiting payment section so I could send invoices and saw that three of the auctions werent listed. Oka...

Resolved! How to bullet proof your listing against returns

A lot of people are complaining that they get too many returns with cases, and all they have to do is just say that they don't accept them. My thinking is, if someone really wants something I have, they will buy it, an example of a bulletproof listin...

EBay's banning of all IVORY will soon be illegal!

Finally! I wrote to several congressmen and women about the broad ban of all ivory on ebay. I have finally heard back from them. It will not be long before they will not be able to ban all ivory. Here is one letter I have received: As you may know, m...

HOW IS GOOD TIL CANCELLED WORKING FOR YOU?

I am still waiting to see the good in GTC. When my listings had a time limit, it appeared that buyers paid attention to the fact that the particular item of interest, would be ending. Now, in my opinion, most buyers are not in a hurry to purchase an ...

Relisting without permission

I think it is totally unscrupulous that eBay now relists expired auction items with no bids without permission. The small print says "up to 8 times." In the past, after giving it a try, when the 7 days auction ended, if no bids, you might decide to d...

Eating food from a stranger.

A few times a year i order myself some homemade goodies (usually cookies) offered by ebay sellers. Some of my friends and family think it's gross and they will not eat any. I get the usual responses: 1) What if they try to poison you?I'm not that imp...

Gave Refund Through Ebay Claim then PayPal Gave Another One

I sold an item worth $300 back in May and it was eventually declared lost in shipping. The buyer filed a dispute/claim on Ebay and I accepted it and gave them the refund of $300 which was charged to my credit card. This happened near the end of July....

So disappointing in this good til cancelled Policy Sales have tanked

Disappointing that I am forced to a 30 day listing and then have it renewed automatically. This NEW policy is horrible and based on the discussion board everyone thinks so as well. I certainly Hope Ebay will see this and change back to options for th...

ebay email worked

I looked at an item the other day and decided not to buy it at that price. Just got an email from Ebay saying the item was now available, new, for several dollars less. So I bought it. So sometimes these emails do work.

Resolved! 20 Items Relisted Overnight - NOT by Me - Were NOT Set to End Today - None of Free 50 Listings Used

Bizarre occurrence happened early this morning. Twenty (20) of my items were relisted. None were scheduled to end in the past 24 hours (and auto-relist under the new everything is good-til-cancelled rule). They all had several-to-many more days remai...

Perfect example of why sellers feel abandoned by ebay and Customer Service!

Had a good previous buyer make a purchase late evening 6/25 and made another purchase a few hours later. The next morning I go to the abysmal new shipping page where I link over to combined shipping to make a very simple standard combined shipping la...
