No sales!

Prime day ... biggest day of the dagnabbit year on the river, and not a single sale. Do they hate small sellers? Are my listings being hidden? I've done everything they've asked me to do, and I've been a seller there for 15 years. It can't be me, bec...

Offering Free Returns = eBay will remove Negative/Neutral feedbacks?

I'm a powerseller (different account) and I have never been able to remove a negative or neutral unless the shipping carrier screwed up. Last month, my girlfriend purchased a few items from a seller on eBay and they turned out to be non-authentic. Sh...
