Issues with Variation listings

It allows me to create a variation called "character" which is just a matter of checking a box, but when I try to 'create my own' under that heading (after giving me a LONG list of characters I don't need) it claims MY selection is "invalid". How the...

Can't stand the new layout

The new layout is terrible! Why make it so difficult to sell!

Cannot ship item though EBay shipping because of wrong shipping address. buyer left neg feedback .

I have been a member since 2001 and have always made sure to never have negative feedback by following the rules and selling as described items. I take pride in it. I will try to make this concise as possible. An item I listed sold, and was paid for....

Spring Update This Week?

I'm hoping so. My store is up for renewal at the end of the week, and I'd like to know what's in the update before making a decision on how to proceed this year. Last year the update was released on Feb. 27th (Tuesday). I'm thinking I might just go m...

Which Western European Countries are safe to sell to?

After a nightmare shipping an order to Russia I realised I need to choose more wisely when it comes to which countries people can place orders from. I've been advised that most Western European coutries are safe to deal with/ship to but there are som...

How long does an eCheck take to clear these days? A week plus?

I sold something, and a day later, I was asked when I was going to ship. I saw it listed as, "awaiting payment," so I said, "Tomorrow, if you pay for it." A couple of rounds later I realized that it had been paid on Feb. 16, but with an eCheck, and P...

Hey guys,I was trying to sell some used clothes to Japan, China, and Korea and was wondering what challenges I would face with selling used clothes there, whether it be customs, tariffs? I've read that international shipping through Ebay is not the b...

Resolved! Help! unhappy buyer, bad feedback, won't return item, accusing seller of bribery!

Please help me with this one! Buyer questions authenticity of an item, despite the lack of any authenticity guarantee. I never challenged the buyer on their claim and told them immediately that I would be happy to give them a full refund (all of $3),...

Why no tracking info on returns?

I noticed the lack of tracking the other day when I got notice that a return had been put in the mail (eBay supplied label on my nickel). Now I have an email from eBay telling me the package has been delivered, followed by one wondering why I haven't...

Resolved! Buyers Wanting Combined Shipping After They Already Paid

Although I specify to request invoice, I don't have a problem with buyers paying immediately then asking about combining their items or shipping refunds but my question is, if they pay for items seperately, don't we have to ship the items seperately?

VERO program no longer protects you from image or text copyright

I just recently made a VERO claim against another listing for using my pictures to sell their products. I have done this successfully for as long as the VERO program came to play. This time however, a totally different response from VERO. "Hello, Tha...

Absurdly complicated!

I have listed on ebay several years ago and I recall it was fairly straightforward. Today I tried to create a listing and the process is now absurdly complicated. I clicked sell and was told about four “offers” (all expiring today of course.)I clicke...

Buyer ordered two items but never saw on eBay - Showed up on Paypal and Refunded on Paypal WTH?

Two of my items were purchased, but I never saw it on eBay. When I went to Pay Pal this morning, I saw that the buyer had purchased two items and a refund for the payment. It never showed up on eBay. The items are still active. Very Strange. Never sa...

Mega International Trading Company. Uh huh.

(That's a made-up name, not a real entity.)Anyway, such names don't fool anyone. We can see clearly on Google Earth that your address is a 2 BR aluminum-sided house with a 1-car garage. a tricycle lying in the front yard, the garbage can lying on its...

Can I link photos from a hosting site in the product description area?

Is it allowed to host photos in the description but the photos are hosted somewhere else? No links. Only that the photos are hosted someplace else and they are being displayed in the description. Reason: I have larger descriptive photos that don't di...
