Item Number Removed from Listing is Live E-Mail

eBay has removed the item number from the "Your Listing is Live" e-mail. Anyone know why they have done this? It makes it a pain to mark inventory with the item number. You now have to open the item and search for the number one at a time. Thanks.

Driver's License to Verify Identity?

So I got married recently and I changed my last name in my eBay account today. Now they are demanding a photo of my DL with my new name or they will hold my pay-outs. I don't have my new DL yet, just an appointment over a month out to get it. Did we ...

Resolved! What is my net revenue?

I can never figure this out. I sold a shirt for 19.99 and according to Ebay, my net revenue is 10.94. Or is it 15.52? Did EB deduct both the shipping & fees; even though the buyer paid ($7) for shipping? *Confusing*!!

Issues with contacting buyers from items they're interested in buying/purchasing

So, is anyone having issues with contacting their customers/buyers on Ebay? I got some customers eying on games I'm selling, trying to get in touch with them after the buyer message me & I haven't heard back from them yet after messaging multiple tim...

Setting up listings in advance .....mister lister?

I am starting back up on eBay and was wondering if there is a selling tool like I use to use, Think I use to use Mister Lister....this allowed me to pick the time , day and minute that my sale was listed. I wrote up my listing then set my time, day a...

Resolved! Buyer left weird, negative feedback without contacting me first- didn't ask for refund!

I sold and shipped a book to a buyer who did not have recent feedback in a long while, like she hadn't bought on eBay for a long time (my radar was up, but the buyer had a verified address and has been a member for years). This buyer just left me wei...

Resolved! Anyone using the Q&A feature??

I was wondering if sellers are using the Q&A feature, To me it seems such a waste of time, If you have a good accurate description,basically all questions should be answered from that & if there is any additional question the customer can contact you...

So, you want to sell on eBay?

I'm amazed at the number of new sellers who think anything goes without a need to be familiar with basic guidelines and policy. Has it become that easy now? Its like someone walking into a hospital and saying "I want to be a doctor". Sure, c'mon in, ...

why Buyer gets low offer I never sent

I had a listing for 65.00. I saw it sold for 35.00. I never received an offer on this item and I didn’t lower the price. I had best offer on but again there was no offer. Also, I did not set an auto accept offer.This is the 4th time this has happened...

I don't accept returns. I just got a "I just don't like it" return request.

I'm probably going to accept the return.If I do, on a "I just don't like it" return, the buyer pays for return shipping, correct?

What makes you happy?

When you land on your eBay page are you glad there's a sale or relived there isn't a return? It's usually a mixed bag for me. If the weather is nasty or I'm sick I hope there was not a sale. The worst is when eBay sends back to back messages that for...

Not sure what to do

I've been an ebay seller since 2003. Always modest sales depending on whether I had any big $1000+ sales that year. I mainly sell one-off collectibles, artwork and the like. Last year I topped out at 425 items in my store. I spoke to one of the ebay ...

won't let me revise items

Hi everyone! For some reason I can't seem to revise any of my items. Never happened before in 4 years. Hoping it's a glitch? I'm just doing simple changes/corrections as I do every so often. It comes up as the normal page but when you scroll down aft...
