Where do listings go when eBay removes them

I realize I violated the policy so please don’t comment on that. Several weeks ago I listed several lots of flatware and one listing was removed for a policy violation since I called it similar to another pattern. I read the policy and tried to find ...

Selling International

The ebay agreement with WebInterpret (European Expansion Program) is available for sellers from ebay.com USA?

Global Shipping program is a major FAIL for non-U.S. buyers

Previously, if you ordered an item of $50-$100, especially from a private seller, and it shipped via USPS, you'd get it in a week and pay no taxes. But with the global program: -You wait another 4-5 days for delivery. -You pay taxes on everything, 13...

How can other sellers get double what I'm asking for things I can't even sell?

I've never been a seller before but have recently begun to buy items at flea markets, etc and resell them. I listed 10 auctions at $15 each and got 13 views total with all auctions in 5 days. So I took all of my auctions down. I've looked at similar ...

Why is autodecline totally ineffective at stopping lowball offers?

Ok,I sell a lot of stuff that there is no set in stone price. Lets say I have a laptop, that needs a power supply, battery, hard drive and may show some use. Its worth somewhere between $60 - $80. I price it at $78.99, free shipping, and depending on...

Too Much Worthless Stuff!

First I clean out all my stuff, and take a pickup full of junk, to the dump. While there, I noticed thousands of books in the dumpster I'm throwing my junk into... I thought, such as waste. It looked like a bookstore dumped its entire inventory. So o...

"CHEATER." The seller message I won't send.

Trying to find a last minute gift today I searched only listings with returns accepted. I spent the longest time looking at one item. I read the description but skipped over the blah blah about policies. I already knew what I needed to know. Just bef...

Drafts.....how many are allowed?

Hi all......I haven't sold for quite awhile, and when I did it was only for a short time. I am literally cleaning out my closets and making some drafts. I saw the drafts will store for up to 30 days. However, is there a limit as to how many drafts yo...

Title was wrong on an item I sold, what do I do?

Title said 7 crest 3 Colgate toothpaste... picture shows 7 Colgate 3 crest... description says 7 Colgate 3 crest... what should I do?

2018 Let This Be The Year Feedback Actually Helps Sellers Again

I have spoken to a number of ebay reps over the last 3 years with my concept and they have all loved the idea and said "I will suggest this at the weekly meeting" and never hear anything back on it or see a change. They tell us feedback is not someth...

Ebay is the Twilight Zone tonight

So I'm listing a few things and I want to ship first class and when I went to list I got a red warning saying the max weight for first class is 13 oz. Then I looked at a question and it wasn't a question but a sale I made earlier, different items. I'...

so did pkg. size limits change from U.S. to Canada?

just listed a bow and the pkg. size will be 66" X 10" X 7" at 7 LBS. which is well under the 108" length + girth max. size threshold to ship USPS priority Mail from U.S. to Canada, but for some reason the ebay bots are red flagging me and not allowin...

Resolved! How to answer buyer's questions

I am asking my fellow ebay sellers how to answer a question politely when that question is ridiculous. Such as if the item is new when the ad says, "new."

Resolved! So done.

As a private seller not even pretending to be an online business, I am so sick and tired of eBay's policy of protecting buyers at all costs. My No Refunds policy for working product is essentially a non-policy thanks to eBay's "Money Back Guarantee"....
