Ebay's buyer biased policies encourage buyers not to pay for purchases

The number of purchases that buyers make and then don't pay for is rediculous. What most of you don't realize is that the buyers are purchasing items and then finding the identical item for less money, and then purchasing that and not paying for what...

Negative feedback left after one email

Buyer sent me an email earlier today about an item they received damaged. I work days. Didn't even have a chance to in any way address their issue - there were numerous ways to handle this situation: I have more of the same bobble head; I could have ...

ebay email about item being listed by an experienced seller

Twice now after doing some ebay research on books I got emails from Ebay telling me they are available from an "experienced seller" with a View Item link. So basically those sellers have ebay specifically telling people about their listings. I wonder...

I just bought your item

"Shipping is too high, would you please refund $7 to be fair" Uh, no, the item is over 1 lb and travelling coast to coast. If they thought the shipping was too high, why did they buy it? I just don't understand people sometimes.

Do you think I have a chance removing this feedback?

A buyer had a problem with their item. They messaged me, I replied in 24 hrs asking if they wanted a refund or replacement. This happened one more time (buyer stated this is a 2nd message) and I told them I already replied to his first... then basica...

Why can't we bulk end auctions with no bids?

Is there any rational reason at ALL for this idiocy?

Think I got scammed by a 0 Feedback Buyer & Question about Return Requests

I used to sell a lot on Ebay a few years ago. Was a top rated seller for a full year. I had an accident and stopped selling on ebay due to pain/fatigue and I was losing money. Anyway...I thought I would sell a couple of things and test the waters. I ...

HAVE YOU NOTICED? Change in Search!

When you search SOLD it automatically adds in COMPLETED now! Stupid because COMPLETED is all the items that have gone UNSOLD! If I wanted those, I would have clicked that box! What is the advantage? Why make the change? I search SOLD listings to get ...

Is anyone making sales on auctions? I've been trying to run auctions for the last few weeks, and I have watchers but no bids. I just had an auction expire with 3 watchers.

Frustrating Selling On Ebay.

Once I'm done selling the few things left to sell. I'm done with Ebay. They are not seller friendly at all. High fees all over the place. Try to force "Best Offer" all the time when you list your items. I barely even make any money because of the fee...

Would you recommend upgrading to store starter plan?

Hi, in the past year I've focused on improving the quality of listing title, description and photos to boost sales of designer menswear. Now I'm considering upgrading my free account to a store account with the starter plan. I'd appreciate it if you ...

Returns on Ebay are deadly to the bottom line!

I don't know about you, but no matter how careful I am about chosing and listing/describing products I sell, I still get a fair number of returns. With margins so low, returns just kill the possibility of making any decent profit. Frustrating! I am n...

I'm wondering if I missed an eBay announcement along the way. I used to be able to see watchers on the public listing/selling pages. Now I can only see watchers in my store on the Seller Hub. Is this normal now or do I have a glitch? Thanks!
