Resolved! Cant get mobile friendly checker to work.

Is it much of a big deal if I dont have a meta tag (whatever that is) on my listing?

scam?

Hey everyone, I have been on and off eBay for years. I have been trying to sell my camera. I have tried to be scammed nice once but twice. The second time I was texted asking for my paypal email. Just to let you know I never gave out my phone number....

Lowering the boom on a liar-buyer, a step by step "how to"

Recently I encountered a liar buyer who seemed to lack a motive for behaving as such. There was no claim of item not delivered, no SNAD, no request for a refund, and no post-delivery communication either. Additionally, I was never reported. This is n...

Resolved! UNFRIENDLY Mobile- Friendly Checker

Is anyone else having trouble with the Mobile-Friendly Checker? I had planned on doing a week-end marathon listing spree, but have been unable to get this to work so far. CS (of course) knows nothing and can't offer any suggestions.

Resolved! Does having paid store = more sales?

I turned off my store subscription last month since I've been having around $100 in revenue and the $25/month is killing me. (one month had 40% of my sales be fees, ouch!). Last Black Friday weekend I had around 15 sales. This year, not one. So first...

How long do you spend thrifting?

I love garage sales - but when summer turns to fall - garage sales stop and I have to get my kicks from thrifting at the Thrift stores. I watch some of these resellers on youtube and they cover 3,4,5 thrift stores in a day. I can spend 2-3 hours in a...

Buyer opens INR case on "local pickup only" item that they never picked up.

If I agree to refund will it be a defect on my account and he can leave negative FB, and if so can I tell him to cancel instead?

My method for getting sales

Every time we go out of town I extend my handling time and thus give up my 10% discount. Never fails that I have sales while we are gone. Gone 4.5 days, I have 4 sales! Works every time!

Resolved! Clothes Steamer

I was wondering for those who sell clothes what type of clothes steamer do you use? I have an off brand I picked up at Aldis awhile back, and it does not do a good job. Also how about Downy wrinkle releaser have anyone tried it? I saw an ad for it aw...

Do you think not being able to feedback buyers hurts or helps sellers?

Do you think not being able to feedback buyers hurts or helps sellers? I am of the opinion that it hurts sellers (to not know who bad buyers are) but helps ebay (as they rake in the fees regardless of us having to deal with deadbeats and scammers). I...

Resolved! Do I have to report a $5 profit to the IRS?

I sold something on Ebay last year and made a profit of just under $5. Do I need to report this to the IRS as income? This is the only profit I made last year from Ebay. I bought the item at a store intending to keep it, then decided I didn't want it...

Listings not showing up in search results after several days

I really need some input from you guys. I understand it can take 24 hours or more before a listing is shown on ebay, but it's been several days now and I have almost no views. I think all the views on my listings are from myself when I view my accoun...

I made a Buy Two Get One Free promotion, and am seeing many people order two, not 3 items?

As per the title, I have had ~10 orders for two, not 3 items today since I started a buy two get one free promotion. Technically you have to add 3 items to your cart to get the deal. What should I do? Should I ship 3 items anyway or just ship the two...
