Went through my very first INAD over eBay and not sure how I feel about eBay going forward.

I’ve been both a buyer and seller on eBay for over 20 years now. Truthfully, I’m much more of a buyer than a seller. I don’t have a storefront, I’m not a Top Seller, and my feedback rating sits around 168 with 5 stars. Selling has always been a pleas...

Does anybody know what statistical model ebay uses to determine "most relevant" feedback?

Not sure exactly when they started doing this though I believe it to be within the past two years that when you click on a seller's feedback rating to see the feedback comments, there is a default sort option that automatically goes to "most relevant...

Resolved! How does someone sell something for $3.50 when you know the item can't be shipped for less than $4?

How do you stay in business that way?

Seller (me) shipped wrong item.

How can I send my buyer a shipping label to return the wrong item and re-ship the correct item?

Found an interesting item for sale on ebay.

Resolved! Is there an easy way to tally up my various types of sales?

In considering how I might strategize for the January change to promotions, I thought it would be a good idea to assess how much other factors have been useful to me. As for sales types, I do occasional auctions but the vast majority of my listings a...

Sales

Slow sales the last week or so. Should be a great time of year for us, but not seeing it this year. Understandable with the economy hurting. Have a great day and hang in there, they're bound to pick up soon.

Forecasts for the 2025 holiday season suggest

That overall US retail spending will increase modestly, but it will not feel like a strong season for all. Higher-income consumers are expected to spend robustly, while lower- and middle-income households are more cautious due to high prices and incr...

Is Immediate Payment Required still a thing? Not seeing it anymore.

I do not see the check box for Immediate Payment Required on the listing form anymore. I do not use the simple listing form. I do straight Buy It Now listings (no auctions). I do not have any business policies. Does everybody else see IPR on the list...

September 2025 Almost no sales

My sales are down over 50% for the last 3 months compared to last year... worst off the two big tickets this month were never paid for after an offer was accepted. Am I alone in this? Now I'm looking for a "real" job considering I can't pay bills any...

How about cracking down on misleading, CHEAP, PLATED “ANTIQUE” jewelry? Real antiquesgetting buried!

eBay says holding sellers payments for WEEKS IS to protect buyers.sure that’s why…wouldn’t be the millions in interest on all that cash at all. Really want to protect buyers & SELLERS (for a fresh change)…How about making all these India & China plat...

Negative feedbacks

I have noticed lately that buyers can leave a negative feedback for whatever reason they want even it's obviously unreasonable. You reach out to eBay and they won't do anything.Also before, if an item is returned and refunded, buyer can not leave a n...

Current payment method for selling costs not being used. ebay is using my old payment method

I recently changed my method of payment for my selling fess from bank account to a credit card (so I can earn points). Even though the site shows the correct method of payment is set for selling costs, ebay keeps using my old method of payment for se...

Ebay National Advertising

I have seen a few ads lately with ebay advertising for the holidays, however, the ads I did see were about how ebay is the place to shop for those hard-to-find, basically used items. Example, the most recent one I saw was about a women finding the ex...
