Just a vent
Summary: designers*n*more expressed frustration with recent changes on eBay, noting that inactive and unsold items had their settings altered after eBay became 'free' to sell. This included the removal of payment options and postage costs, and listings being changed to allow offers. twyngwyn mentioned they haven’t experienced issues as they use a store but noted incorrect postage settings in their relists. e_purchasing humorously commented on the vent. twyngwyn later mentioned their own difficulties with postage information errors, intending to report it to tech support.
Since eBay became “free” to sell, all my inactive/unsold items have been changed.
Ok, I get that in order to get “free” selling there are rules, ie no longer able to do bulk listings. I have over 200 items to relist and will need to do them individually, and that’s going to take a bit of time. But, what is really annoying is, eBay have somehow deleted all payment options, previously all had “eBay Managed payments”, and some had “cash on pick up”. Now that cash on pick up is no longer allowed more fiddling with edits. I had pick up details in the actual listings.
ALL postage costs have been removed argh😡
And
EBay has changed every listing to allow “offers” which I never had selected.
Has anyone else had the same issues?

·1 month ago · EditedNo issues, as I have a store….but I note that your ‘current’ listings have ‘standard parcel’ as postage, when it should be eBay labels???
I think eBay has changed something…..I just checked other free sellers, and they are all the same as you.
Sorry, I have no idea……someone else will be along to help you 🤔
