''Chat With Us'' That's the link for live help. It will open up as a pop up so make sure you don't have pop ups blocked in your browser.

1) Keep everything as simple as possible, probably at the level of an 8yo child.

2) Be prepared for them to say 'I understand' when they don't understand

3) They will give the same generic advice you can find by searching help

4) If you don't accept that advice they will tell you they have passed on your details to someone else in ebay to help you

5) That will be the last you will hear from them, forcing you to go to live chat again, repeating the process

Much better just to ring and ask to speak to someone in Australia.

Click on Customer Support in the menu top right of screen then click on the Contact eBay tab.

Find the most relevant topic and you will be given options to either call eBay, have an eBay rep call you or email.

You may be better off asking here, most things can be solved by the members who post here and you are more likely to get an informed answer that will actually help. Rest assured if your problem would be better handled by contacting ebay then that is what members will advise.

A buyer is asking me for my PayPal information and cell phone number. This is my first time selling on eBay. They are also sending a shipping agent to pick up the item. Should I provide my PayPal info? Can't they just click "buy" and buy the item as it's connected to my PayPal already.

Scam,it's an ongoing scam that they've been trying for years.

My guide shows you how to deal with it,(just scroll down to where it says Fake shipping agent scam):

You are asking on the Australian Boards. You may want to log out and log back into ebay.com.

Probably best to start a new thread when you have an issue, not dig up an old one. I am assuming by the brand and estimate that it's coming from China? There were a lot of public holidays since you bought which ebay don't recognise, so there is a chance it will take longer than the estimate in the listing. Those dates are an estimate only, not a guarantee. EBay puts them there, not the seller.

Leave it another week and if it hasn't arrived then, contact the seller and let them know it hasn't arrived. Give them a few days to reply. If they don't reply, open up a item not arrived dispute in PayPal.

Was there tracking uploaded into your purchase history?

If it's the seller on 46.2 % feedback and 7 negs at the time of writing this, it's a fraudulent listing for a non existent item.

Log on to Paypal and open a dispute immediately .Escalate to a claim as soon as the system allows.

Beware of spoof/phishing emails you may receive. Don't open them and don't click on any links.

Absolutely agree with the above comment. I didn't go searching for the listing. It looks like a hijacked account. Most definitely open a dispute through PayPal IMMEDIATELY. Not through eBay, definitely through PayPal. Disregard everything I said above. Do it right now before the fraudulent seller makes off with your money.

Other sellers have the same item for over $400. If you see an item much cheaper than everyone else, alarm bells should ring. 99.9% of the time they are fraudulent. DO NOT buy them as they don't exist. It is someone who has hijacked an account with the sole intention of stealing your money.

If you don't know how to open a dispute, come back and let us know and we'll talk you through it.

Edit: I replied to your post Silver because I agreed with everything you said. The rest of the message is meant for the 2 feedback buyer who we replied to. 🙂

I just read the title HOW TO CHAT WITH EBAY REPRESENTATIVE? all in caps too, sorry but my first reaction was to laugh,then I read the adviice "Keep everything as simple as possible, probably at the level of an 8yo child" and laughed even louder , the last time I tried live chat the answers I was given were absolutely ridiculous , then I called and could not understand what the rep was saying because of the strong filipino accent, it took 40 minutes and 2 other calls until I got my answer ,this has been the case for a number of years ,all in all it is not funny,ebay selling and buying requires a certain amount of patience that much I know,wish you better luck with your next call/chat to ebay rep, Cheers
