Hi. I had a buyer purchase two items from me in February, she took 2 weeks to pay for one and never paid for the other. Her account was eventually suspended by eBay as she obviously had a lot of shady behavior. She also put in a claim for the item she did pay for and receive, which was later withdrawn unexpectedly. Recently I have had an item sold and it has still not been paid for, 3 days later, I went to look at the buyer and realized it was this same buyer with a new account! I also found the item she had claimed 'not to receive' she had resold on March 10th!! My question is. I feel as though this buyer has been quite shady and I do not want to deal with her again, I would have blocked her but I didn't know it was her because of the new account. Is there anyway I can just cancel the transaction. She is the worst ebayer I have ever encountered. Thanks

I have had a Basic Store for a few years now and never experienced such a dramatic drop in sales since the beginning of December 2015. I am lucky if I sell 2 items per day, before I was averaging sales of 10 items per day. Has anyone else experienced the same or similar? Any advice to increase sales would be much appreciated. Not worth have an eBay Store if you are working for next to nothing. Best regards, Val

Hello i disagree to refund money for Urban Decay eye shadow i didn't sell it as authentic and after girls asked me questions about it l added more information about authentic and review the item. I have bought this item on eBay as well. A buyer didn't ask any questions but she knows about red stick and sparkle in black shadow. I didn't know about it and put on sale because it is not my colour and nothing wrong with the product. she didn't ask anything, didn't check. If return is not accepted I have to be under protection as well because other way it is no sense. There is a lot not authentic Urban Decay product on eBay. I have bought not authentic products myself because I didn't check it before buy it. I didn't mentioned anything about authentic and honestly answer for questions I am not sure about it. I desagree people bought some product and figure out later they don't like it and want to return it. I want protection as a seller as well as a buyer Regards Svetlana

Why do I get the message "Unfortunately, this promotional offer is by invitation only." when I try to accept an emailed promotional offer.

I'd really appreciate some assistance with an issue I've not encountered as a seller before. Somebody used the buy it now option on a dvd I had for sale. Two days later they've sent me a mesage asking me to 'please negotiate the price down'. I told the buyer that the price was firm and that if they didn't want to pay that amount then they needed to send me a request to cancel the purchase. Now I'm wondering if that was the correct thing to do? Thanks for your help.....

Hello, We have quite a few products that do not come with product identifiers like most locally sourced goods. How can we list an item without a UPC that eBay will not take down?

Hi all, I have just started to sell on eBay a few days ago and was not awere there was a monthly limit for selling, I reached the limit quiet quickly, I am aware there is a way to cont- selling, something about another account, I read, but could not get what it meant, it most likely will be simple, but I dont get it , so, can anybody help, or do I just wait for the new month before selling again.. Cheers all.. Mauricestingray..

To get seller protection on lost items in the post, is using a ebay posting label and lodging item in a ebay satchel over the counter at the post office & having receipt enough to get cover. A little unsure about this as when it says a postcode or address of the buyer needs to be proved, is using the ebay labels proving this or does SOD need to be used no matter what to get seller protection.

what happens if you have an interested buyer you have done an offer for and time is running out, is it rude to contact them to ask them whether they want to committ to buy and if so should i only trust that committment to buy when the funds have come thru. I have bent over backwards for this potential buyer and with 4 hours to go and I have to go out tomorrow and can start to send his purchase if he wants it asap tomorrow but not heard from a committment to buy I have offered him free postage as he had special postage needs and gave him quite a good discount on the items he might be considering buying So is it rude to contact to get a committment to buy before the time on the purchase expires as i would like to get some sleep tonight but want to do the best by the buyer and get it sorted and possibly start to get it mailed tomorrow for him as i will be away from the computer after tomorrow afternoon and that means a delay of days for him And if i do ask him to committ to buy should i only trust that committment when the money comes thru??????

As a seller on ebay, when listing an auction style listing to sell an item on ebay do we have the option to indicate a reserve price (which I believe the buyer does not see)If so how and where do we do this? Thank you

mungoandwillie

I have an item for sale and I have since found out that Australia Post won't accept it because the item is too long. That's not a problem because I have found a courier company who will deliver it to most places. When the auction ends, how can I alter the postage charge to the actual charge the courier will charge me (with the buyer's agreement of course)? Thanks

guru272

Can you please explain my current selling charges. I have notification that I am being invoiced $127.61 I have recently sold the following items Spa $455 Spa Heater $346 Flooring $88 Following your seller fee section, I calculate that my charge should be approximately $75.62 (8% of sale price + $1.50 per item insertion fee). The spa has sold once previously for $400 but was never paid for and I have already opened un 'unpaid' case on this one,. Thanks in advance Gavin

I cant get a reserve price option to come up how can I do this

If the successful bidder does not pay my invoice and answer my emails, how long do I have to wait before selling again?

blackcat1717

on my invoice I am charged a final value fee on postage. With that fee I lose money on postage. It's not fair to over charge the buyer, but paying eBay a fee for me charging postage makes me lose money.

I clicked No International Shipping, but think that it may be a good idea given the conversion rates! Thanks in advance.

I recently listed two similar laptops on ebay. Both with auction and Buy it now options. When I woke up in the morning I received two ebay notification emails (coming from ebay@ebay.com.au) that my items were sold. Wow! Now the first thing is, while posting, I kept the default option of 'No international postage' selected and offered free postage to Australia only. The notification email contained messages from the respective buyers which appeared similar to me. Have a look below Buyer1: Hi Mate, Am the winning buyer of your lovely item, I will like you to contact me via ldemido@hotmail.com so we can sort out postage and delivery method. I will be traveling for a business trip so i will be accessing my email via iphone. Kindly email me as soon as possible via ldemido@hotmail.com and use the item number as subject and also send your PayPal email. Awaiting to read from you ASAP. Regards. Buyer2: Hi mate, Glad I won your item. I'm currently in New Zealand at the moment. Please email me at rukiyezabdul@outlook.com, confirming the exact condition of the item. I will be going for an appointment will be able to access my email from my iPhone, so email me at rukiyezabdul@outlook.com using the item number as the subject. cheers I was excited and replied to the first buyer on his/her given email immediately. But I haven't yet heard back from him/her. Then I got a bit supicious and wasn't sure what to do with the second buyer. So I contacted him through ebay asking him if he is willing to pay international postage fee. Within few minutes I got reply asking me to tell him the exact condition of the laptop and reply on his email id. Okay I did that. And after that I haven't yet heard back from him. Deja vu for me! What is happening here? They both wanted only my email address? It appears like that. I checked these guys on ebay. They are not 'born today' users. The first one (member since 2003) has 84 score with zero +ve, -ve and neutral feedback in the last 12 months. The second one (member since 2010) has only feedback score of 1. They both have requested invoice (which I haven't sent yet) and haven't replied to me when I asked them if they are willing to pay for international postage. What should I do now?
