Resolved! How to respond to scam buyer

I made a sale yesterday and "for fun" I always look up the address to see where my item is going. This time the mailing address was flagged all over the Ebay Forum and Reddit as a scam - the old "I never got my item" routine. So I cancelled the sale ...

EBay will not reply

I am based in the UK but sell on eBay.com. I have called UK many times and they are great but my issue has to be resolved by eBay.com who I cannot call. I have sent four emails and received standard generic replies from three different people. All th...

I need to ask the community yet again for some help. I sold an item that was set as "local pick up" but the buyer and I agreed on shipping the item for $90. The buyer bought the item but I forgot to add the extra shipping fee. So whats the best way t...

Let Me Get This Straight..

Ebay will not allow me to sell an Americana salt and pepper shaker set from the 1950s that shows a black man and woman dressed in an Aunt Jemima outfit, BUT WILL allow all types of Nazi memorabilia and coins? Ebay's excuse is the salt an pepper shake...

Buying problems -- could they be fixed?

I want to see an ended item -- nooOOOooo, it loads a line of items, "YOU MAY ALSO LIKE", and the item I want to see drops down and down on the screen. Then it loads a SECOND line of "YOU MAY ALSO LIKE". Until a week ago I could hit "ESCAPE" and stop ...

REQUIRED Product Reviews - a No Go

Just tried to leave feedback rating on a seller for an item received today. The "Feedback" will NOT let me submit it unless I now "review" the item itself. This is **bleep**. If I want to "review" something, I'll write a separate review for it, most ...

why is ebay adding the sales tax to the seller's income from sale. Sellers never receive sales tax

I couldn't believe my eyes, but apparently Ebay is charging the seller to include the sales tax to the amount received, we don't receive any sales tax from customers, and when they get their 12% which already way too high, but this is downright theft...

Selling small volume of goods - question on Cost of Goods and what I need to keep track of for taxes

I am a retired individual and am slowly selling items I have around the house to cut down on a lifetime of stuff. I am not sure what I need to keep track of to help offset any earned income. I get that if I were to pick up an item to resell, I should...

Getting Scammed By A Buyer

I'm currently dealing with a problematic buyer who is trying to pull a fast one. I had a brand new PS2 game for sale, and it was factory sealed. Before she purchased it, she asked me for photos of all sides of the case; she wanted to make sure there ...

Counterfeit Jacket

I bought an Arcteryx on Feb 8 2024. The zipper broke so I sent it to the manufacturer for a fix and they claimed I bought a counterfeit item. Its way past the review or return date. Do I have any recourse? Seems like ebay is weak in this area.

Got an email from a potential buyer , here is her/his partial message..., I recently tried to purchase but encountered an error that prevented me from doing so. Subsequently, I reached out to the customer service, who explained that the problem lies ...

Sellers requiring immediate payment on auctions

Hi! I've seen a huge increase in sellers of auction listings to demand immediate payment. It's harassing. Ebay's term state that buyers must pay for the auctions they win but I believe the terms also state that sellers have to allow 4 days to buyers....
