"Frequently bought together" items from multiple sellers

This was new to me and so wanted to share: ebay promoting multiple seller's items in a box of "frequently bought together" right under the listing header. I think it is confusung. See photos. Now I see there was an active discussion thread on the top...

Ebay keeps adding shipping to Russian Federation

I'm adding multiple similar listings by hand. Shipping is to North America and some of Europe. In exactly ZERO of my listings, I have chosen to activate shipping to the Russian Federation. Yet, almost every time I "create similar", I look down at the...

Feel let down by Ebay

Help fellow sellers!! I sold a small item, sent it with the ebay label to the shipping center in Kentucky (the item was going to Canada). They apparently lost the item. The buyer filed an "item not received" claim. Ebay refunded her money and took it...

30 day returns

Does anyone else think this is a bit extreme especially for Used Clothing. So can buy an item wear for 29 days and ask for a return. Shouldn't this be left up to the selller to decide how many days for a return? If the buyer is aware and oky with a 1...

Suspension for Having Two Selling Accounts?

Can eBay suspend your account if you try creating a new account to sell on? Is it allowed to have more than one selling account on eBay? Just wondering. Thank you.
