Handling selling in time of inclimate weather shipping delays

If my forecast is correct we could get a lot of snow tomorrow, Tuesday, and it may not begin melting until Sat. or Sun. I'm in the rural South Ozark Mountains where road crews cannot be counted on to be of much help. Is there a way to remain open for...

Total Yearly Sales

Is there an easy way for a seller to see total sales for 2024? I can find a total that starts and ends with different months but not from January to December in a single year. I know I can always click on 12 different months and add the 12, but it se...

I would love it...

if eBay would just get rid of about 80% of it's CS reps, train and pay the remaining 20% properly, and redirect the balance of the budget to hiring competent IT/tech support. Just my gripe of the day.

DO NOT SELL ON EBAY and Ill tell you why

eBay is a platform that seems to favor buyers over sellers, and this raises concerns about its practices. It's evident that the company often sides with purchasers, while sellers frequently come and go. This dynamic is largely influenced by eBay's 30...

Does your fixed add rate campaign actually make a difference if you raise or lower it?

I can't find any resource that tells you exactly how raising your fixed add rate percentage benefits your sale. It's logical that the more you give to ebay the more they'd somehow promote it more, but there's no metric or info that covers exactly wha...

Resolved! Counteroffer Settings - Something Changed

Is it permissible to sell "game completion services"?

Basically services where someone gives you their account and you play the game for the to unlock something (be it in-game or on the network, like PlayStation Trophies). I would think the whole "give your account to another person" premise of the sale...

Does one outstanding offer to a watcher prevent you from sending out other offers on the same item?

Resolved! What Is Your Average Tax Bill If You're A Seller?

I just got my first 1099-K and I'm nervous. According to eBay, I've sold more than 18K worth of stuff last year (2024). The 1099 is not itemized, and I'm aware that I owe Income Tax only on items that made a profit , so how do I prove most of my item...

1099 Detailed Report

Can anyone tell me where I can get the 1099 Detailed report. I am not asking about the 1099 Details report which you can get from seller hub. There is an even more detailed report I've gotten every year in the past called "detailed report" - I'm look...

eBay fees aren't that much compared to other outlets.

A consignment store near me - they take 60%, yes...60% of the item's selling price. Antique malls may only take 10-15%, but you might have to spend $200/mo on rent. So if you sell $1,500/mo out of that booth, that ends up being 23-28%. Auction houses...

Any ideas? Antique? Era?

Discovered I had this unique lapel pin of a covered wagon. The pin on the back is very different. It is in 2 parts. Shorter pin & longer. They cross over each other by a small portion. I think the way it was made shows it to be antique. The metal is ...
