What did I do wrong here?

So I'm not a book seller by any stretch of the imagination but I attempted to list a book using ebay's prefilled information and now I have the dreaded "see full item description" bar. I just want my whole listing on one page. Do I need to take out t...

ANYONE ELSE NOTICE A DIP IN THEIR SALES SINCE EBAY STARTED THE "PROMOTED" LISTINGS FOR A FEE?

SO LET ME GET THIS STRAIGHT....FOR A FEE, 3% TO 6% YOUR LISTING WILL BE PROMOTED AT THE TOP OF PAGES AND HERE'S THE CATCH. YOU ALSO GET A SECOND LISTING WITHOUT THE PROMOTED FEE. SO IF YOUR LISTING SELLS, NO FEE. IF THE PROMOTED LISTING SELLS, YOU GE...

what is the point of even having feedback for buyers? you can't leave anything but positive feedback, so it's not any indication of a good or bad buyer. I have a deadbeat buyer, and of course he has 100% positive feedback. (since a seller can't leave...
