@askebay not aswering! eBay is failing & the site is like a ghost down!

6th DM to AskeBay and still no response from you. Your customer service is horrible. The way you treat the very customers that helped MAKE EBAY (what it use to be, not what it is today) is appalling. I certainly looks like you are attempting to go in...

Scammers Vs. Real Buyers

Do you use your garage as an ebay office?

I live in a house built in 1950 and the garage is so small for my F150, I think it's good to fit a Pinto, no thinking of the future back then, so I am using it as an ebay office and had to spend some money to convert. Because sales are slow on ebay n...

HomeThe new ebay stores no longer provide a link to access the search engine keywords as they did before. Where do I find the keywords being used for my listings. Thanks

Resolved! Don't Pay a penny til you sell !!! ~ BE AWARE

I used to have two power seller accounts on eBay years ego (early 2000s) with about $50,000 sales per month on each account. Then eBay decided to change their algorism to the so called "Best Match" and for some reason eBay became the Chinese seller f...
