Why do sellers still have a Top Rated badge on their listings and do not offer free returns?

I thought if we did not offer free returned our Top Rated Badge would not show anymore and I see many Top Rated sellers who DO NOT offer Free Returns and their badges are still there? Seems unfair for those of us complying!!

eBay Will be best advised if it will reconsider it's policy on returns.

After all, at the risk of sounding repetitive, items being offered on eBay are not all under the category of 'One Size Fits All'. In my particular situation selling compact disc and records vinyl, it is unfair giving all the benefits to buyers who, s...

You ever have the feeling that a buyer is going to return an item, before you ever send it out?

Had a buyer send me a message about sending an item without any marketing materials (no invoice, etc.) after he purchased it from me. Dude's name was different from the name on the corresponding address. I had a feeling that this item was going to co...

Item marked as delivered but...

So my item popped up on my phone as delivered at 1:30pm. I could not find it on my porch anywhere. I have surveillance cameras, checked them, 1:29 the mailman bypasses me through my yard. I watched for the next hour, nothing. So there's no way he del...

Inaccurate estimated time. What to do?

I ship my products from Bulgaria. From here to the US it takes about 20 days (on average) for an item to be delivered. Of all the shipping options the following two are the only ones accurately describing the type of shipping:Economy shipping from ou...

Item Returned Not My Fault

Sold a cash register key to someone that's claiming that it doesn't fit their cash register. I clearly stated in the ad the models that this key would work on. Do they deserve a refund or do we just accept people who don't READ THE AD!!

Worst Return Experience Ever

I sold a video game bundle with light gun that is in perfect working order with a 14 day return policy. The buyer started a return after the 14 days claiming the gun was defective but in his/her own words "it must need a really old tv to work" provin...

Hello all, I have items listed as buy now and sellers are telling me that they have items in their cart and when they confirm to pay; they are being told that I do not offer combined shipping. How do I make it possible for them to get the combined sh...

Using FedEx smartpost

I just got burned by using FedEx Smart post by charging me astronomical shipping charges . Of course EBay would not do anything about it. I know many members of the eBay community have had the same problem. However instead of just stop using this ser...

Return labels for combined shipped items

I called customer support today to inquire about returns.The one question I really wanted them to answer was this...When I ship several items combined as one package and the buyer wishes to return one small light weight item, how much will the return...

Sending item back for refund

Just to say this is purely for interest as I've given it up as a bad job with this seller and the item was only 4 quid I bought a personalised paper item last week and it arrived promptly. However it had a very obvious spelling mistake on their part ...

shipping to be determined AFTER sale and payment

On another forum I read, a buyer wants to buy a tool set on ebay from an "overseas" seller who says he will not quote shipping charges until AFTER the buyer pays for the item. To me this just screams "SCAM" but this guy really wants this item. Has an...

Our 2 cents on mandatory free returns to keep TRS badge and 10% off seller fees.

10% off seller fees just isn't worth the money to pay for our customers to ship an item back because it wasn't the right size or just buyer remorse. If we made a mistake in the listing, then of course we would pay for the return, but that is extremel...
