I have been slowly trying to build a business here 🙂 doing ok ...getting sales and people perusing my wares 🙂 due to our $ being low at the moment i am thinking maybe selling overseas may be a good thing ....thinking...maybe.... never posted sold goods overseas i want to ... but.... i like posting my items with a set price (including postage or ''free postage'') obviously i cannot send overseas for the same price i also do not think i should have to work out all the different prices for different countries and commit them to memory for each different size item i sell (my items vary a lot in size and weight ) I am trying to work out the how to's of selling overseas by adding the postage price i would like : it to auto work out the postage for me the auto postage price to be correct (and not cost me extras) to be able to use the same ebay postage label print option so i guess my questions are (after this long winded intro) HOW do i set up the international postage to be 'as per transaction' like is it to canada or portugal or ...etc do customers from these places see the auto postage price on the sale already from ebay? if not ...HOW do i put a marker so overseas customers ask me the postage price (happy to evaluate each but prefer it to be auto ) im worried most that if i do it wrong someone from somewhere will buy something and i will send it to them but it will end up costing me more than my profit margin thanks 🙂

I've just listed my bomber jacket , was lead by the nose to women's clothing when what I wanted was Felix the Cat collectables, It's a childs size jacket but that is immaterial as it's value lies in it's collectability, how do I fix it and get it on the right page?

One of my sale items is toothbrush heads for electric toothbrushes. In my listings I detail which models the heads will fit. A buyer has submitted a refund request based on the item not fitting. I'm assuming that the buyer bought the right type, since these are the most common type of heads for this brand (by far). I have sent a message asking to see evidence that the they don't fit the toothbrush and the buyer has not replied. My message was sent through the Return Request, and when I didn't get an answer for 2 days, I also emailed the buyer to ask them to read the message and respond. Still nothing. Ebay is asking me to resolve the refund request by today. The buyer will have had to unpackage the heads to find out they don't fit, so if they are rturned, the item won't be saleable, even if they are perfectly good. I have also aasked the buyer to advise whether they would prefer to pay for postage for the return and be refunded, or have a prepaid satchel supplied. Also no reply. Am I obliged to offer a refund? Including postage?

Give me the costs for listing a used caravan for sale on ebay australia and what period listing lasts

Should I demand immediate payment from all my customers. I spend days emailing the buyer when they don't pay, and by that time it is too late to offer a second chance bid to someone else. I have black listed about 40 people who haven't paid me in the past. Buyers just go mad bidding and then don't pay. Can someone suggest something to prevent this happening? Ebay says they get a not paid mark on their feedback report but I have yet to see one. Thanks Ann

Hi, sold an item on ebay,(item # 191902485070), buyer did not pickup or pay for item. Went through resolution centre, received a fee credit of $39.50. Prior to the credit given, ebay fee total was $55.25. After the credit given the total amount due reduced to $15.75. I have just received an invoice for a total of $55.25. This is incorrect. Can you please explain this mistake, correct it. The credit was given quite a few days before the new due invoice came through. Thank you for a quick response, regards Kathy.

An item listed for auction. Main listing is 1 day 5 hrs left to bid, Watch list is 1 day 22 hrs left to bid, why is there a difference?

Hi, I am not sure if it is okay to send invoices from my e-commerce website (not ebay) to my eBay customers after they complete a purchase from my ebay store. One of the reasons why I want to do this is to track my ebay and non-ebay sales in one place. Critically important for inventory tracking. Thanks

Sellers from India are putting tracking numbers on there articles but these numbers are not being recognised by Australia Post. When I log into Australia Post to find where my article is using the tracking number provided by India Post, Australia Post just says that the India Post tracking number is not trackable by Australia Post.

blueedgecrafts

I accidentally clicked on accept return - how do I cancel this? I was under the impression that the customer had to pay for the return not me.

I've been having a consistent problem with PayPal/eBay since the 27th of May. A man purchased a watch from me, opened the case for a refund, decided he didn't want the refund anymore so closed the case. During this time PayPal held my funds in preparation for the mans refund, however, upon closure of the refund case they should have released the funds again. PayPal insist that the case is still open yet eBay irrefutably deny this, saying it is 100% closed. I spent 8 hours on the phone between the both companies, written 5 letters, twenty emails and spoken to 10 representatives, 3 supervisors and 2 managers in total. I've also had 3 conference calls between two representatives/managers from each company bartering over my situation. The situation remains the same: eBay insist that the case is closed and therefore the funds should be released on PayPal, however, PayPal insist that they haven't received a 'closed' status and still see the case as open on their screens, therefore cannot release the funds until this glitch is solved. Both parties have admitted to some system error or glitch specifically on my account. Even although eBay have forward this dilemma to the technical team, re-opening and closing the case did not work nor did deleting it. They have been rather consistent with their updates and such, trying their best to solve any technical fault on their side whilst insisting that PayPal can indeed release the funds manually and that they are trying to work with them to achieve this. It's illegal to withhold money entitled to a person and that is exactly what is happening. I could contact a small claims court, but I have no idea on how that'd work given that I am situated in Australia. I also have no idea on how I can effectively pass my letter onto higher management, I can only send this via 'contact us' forms and such where the average representative will reply with the same liners and rhetoric. It never gets passed above to people who could actually change my situation. In the end even if I do get my money back, I will receive no compensation for everything I've had to go through and I will have to continue paying seller fees despite this poor treatment. What can be done about this? TL;DR: Sold an item on eBay. Customer opened a case as he wanted a refund, then decided he didn't want one anymore so closed the case. Money is still held on PayPal as they say eBay haven't closed the case. However eBay state the case is closed and PayPal should be able to release funds. Both have acknowledged system glitch and I cannot get my money back until this has been resolved. It has now been a month and a half, nothing is being done.

Hi, A buyer bought three items and requested an invoice with combined postage. I did not see this and thus my auto settings set-up and closed unpaid items cases. Is there any way now of reinstating those sales and sending a combined invoice. Also then if paid I would like the unpaid cases taken off their buyer record. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. Regards Sharron

Hi I am new to e-bay and trying to sell my first item but seem to be having issues! I sold an item but the buyer requested to pick the item up. I attempted to edit my listing and change postage to "pick up" however when i requested to ammend it would not allow me. I cancelled the order and tried to repost the item, however it now will not allow me to repost the item saying i have reached my monthyl limit. Because I am a new seller I cannot apply for a higher limit of items to sell and now unable to have the buyer purcahse the product. Does anyone have any suggestions to how I can get the item back up so the buyer can puchase the item. I am also concerned this will affect my rating and with being new I dont want it to appear poorly. thanks

Does Ebay no longer have that facility for items other than vehicles?

I have a customer who has bid on and won a number of items from me, but has not paid or responded after a week and two requests for payment. I know my next step is to open an 'unpaid items' case. My question is: Do I have to open one case for each item or can I open the case for bulk items? I also know that if and when the case/s is closed, I can relist the items and get my final value fee returned. My next question is: how do I avoid having to pay the listing fees for all FORTY THREE items again? (that's $64.50!)

I take my photos correctly but when they are listed ebay posts them side ways.Tried support but no luck. Can any one help me ?

cavvykc

every time I make a listing I have to uncheck the best offer box. I do not wish to use Best Offer in any of my listings, so how can I keep it unchecked on a permanent basis?

cliffordrnewmarch2009
