Ebay Removes 5 - 7 - 10 days fixed price listings

I recently contacted Ebay regarding their removal of the 5 and 7 and 10 day fixed price listings. They guided me to their feedback page and encourage all sellers to provide their feedback on this change. I, like many many others, completely abominate...

Cutting Ebay Fees by Using One Catagory?

I'm looking to cut my Ebay fees. I've been using a second category, believing that this increases the visibility of my items. But is this true? Will I see a drop in sales if I drop the second catagory? It doubles the listing fee but does it also incr...

One Day old account making a 'best offer'

It looks like almost every offer/bid/message is someone trying to scam me. If someone with an account created yesterday tries to place a 'best offer' bid, should I just decline it, or is there a way to make sure they can pay before declining? Out of ...

Can anyone tell me what happened to MYEbay page? See pic

Sorry to bug you all again My Ebay page is messed up now. Ever since being forced to login quite early. Here is a pic only of the amount sold. The amount sold number has a few numbers beside it which read RM. And the amount sold isn't correct. I sell...

Seller Hub editing for variations

I am in the process of revising and updating our SkUs to integrate with a much larger project. I have been using the new Seller Hub feature of quick edits. Today the variations editing for custom label SKUs stopped working. I can scroll over to price...

https://community.ebay.com/t5/Announcements/Product-update-Buyers-able-to-update-offer-expiration-on-Best/ba-p/29623043 Looks like Buyers will now be able to select how long they want the offer to be good for instead of the standard 48 hours.

eBay does not support sellers whatsoever!!!!!!!!!

eBay will not support a seller and I hope that those who have been screwed by a buyer without giving a seller a way to make it right before receiving negative feedback please speak out. I am sick that someone who had only two transactions can give me...

MY TAKE ON THE GTC DEBATE.

Is the change to GTC a good idea? For me yes as that is what I mostly used before. For all those who still want a shorter GTC time you can end your listings whenever you want. Also, before Fixed Price listings auto renewed anyways so if you had a 7 d...

GTC Auto Listing Renewal Nightmare

How can this new policy improve sales when sellers are packing up and leaving eBay because of it? The ones staying are having to adjust inventory and make sure they are on top of every listing's time as to not get a renewal fee for something they did...

“Good Till Canceled” Only Option - This Hurts My Business

eBay's decision to require all listings to be GTC suggests they have no interest in people selling only where they quantity is only 1. I purchase items mostly at Thrift Stores - often items I purchase turn out to be mistakes or we are not at the corr...

If eBay isn’t a monopoly, where else can I sell collectibles? Ebay updates aren’t worth the hassles.

I sell collectibles. Ebay is the only place I know to sell them. After two years of eBay updates, I just don’t have the time and energy required to meet all their demands, yet I do need to sell my inventory. Ebay says they’re not a monopoly, but if t...

DO NOT LIKE THE "GOOD TIL CANCELLED" MANDATORY REQUIREMENT EBAY WILL IMPLEMENT.

Ebay just does not get it!!! Sellers want to have some control of what they sell, when it starts, and when it ends. What will happen to the extra exposure listings get when they are new, and when they are ending?? This is just another money grab. Jus...

Resolved! IT SAYS I Sell to MALAYSIA BUT I ONLY SELL TO US. How to fix it?

Thank you. The entire page changed for no reason suddenly. The instructions tell me to go to where I usually do but this is all I get. Can someone instruct me where it is??

Fixed Price Good 'Til Cancelled not good for unique items/collectibles - includes proposed fixes

The requirement that all fixed price listings now must be Good 'Til Cancelled might be fine or even be better for some types of listings such as businesses that sell high volumes of the same items over and over and just need to restock items. However...

Ebay SPAM emails

In the past three weeks I'm getting a ton of ebay spam. Things I've looked at out of curiosity, items on my watch list, etc. Is this the new ebay plan - to annoy everyone that visits the site in addition to sellers?
