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?

I have relisted an item due to change of buyers mind. Will I still be charged for EBay selling fee as the process was never completed and feed back is also atached to this question.?

I've created the rule,just can't see where to connect it to items. Have tried editing items individually and in bulk.

This is what they asked: "If I send my own postage envelop with stamp and my address on it . Would you be able to drop this book to your nearest red post box?" I'm confused as to what to do. It sounds dodgy that they want to send postage to my house when I am the seller, when I could just use my own postage. Please help. Thanks!

Hello I am new to eBAY. I like to give away an almost new item ( carpet) to someone who picks it up. I am struggling working my way through your required data bank - yes eventually put in my bank details but everytime I thought I can save and list it it comes back with this, sorry, d... question in regards to bank details again. Perhaps I am old fashion and not used to that. Thanks for your help. Peter

Hi, I have had my selling account suspended after recieving some complaints of items not being received by buyers, however I am sure that they were received, only late due to postage complications. The buyers did not want to pay for registered post and I am unable to confirm that the items were delivered. How do I get my selling account un susoended?

I have not accepted an offer made for an item I have listed yet that person has sent money to Paypal and Ebay have listed the item as sold.

I have two questions relating to a basic store subscription. Is Selling Manager and Selling Manager Pro the same thing? I have opened a fairly new basic store and about a week after that, I received an email about Selling Manager Pro being a trial and am I happy with it. Can anyone explain how the Selling Manager/Selling Manager Pro fits into the basic store subscription? I have tried to find what comes with this Selling Manager but have had no luck finding out what I need to know.

I received an offer from Ebay for no listing, no selling fees for 3 days. However when I enter my "classified ad" type listing, it says that final seller fees are applicable. Why is this?

I recently had a period where i was waiting for new stock to be delivered, if i couldnt fulfill an order i refunded buyers through the system thinking this was the correct thing to do - i used the ' i cannot fulfill this order due to low stock". I didnt realise that every refund was a defect on my account. All of a sudden my sales stopped on Ebay, this was due to Ebay changing my account to a ' below average performance", i had been a power seller before this and have a 99.5% positive feedback score. I am now at a 2.75% defect rate when i should be below 2% due soley to refunding buyers. I have spoken to cusomer services on numerous occasions tryng to explain my situation and prove that i now have stock to fulfill orders but they will not help me at all. To get my store operating at under 2% defects i have to sell 177 items ...my sales have dropped from 5-10 per day to 1 item per 2 weeks. I have just invested heavily in a new shipment of stock to sell on Ebay and i cant make a sale due to my store drop in visability and limitation on listings. This is causing me a lot of stress! Does anyone have any advice on how to resolve this issue? Any advice would be much appreciated. I honestly thought i was doing the right thing, but i have been informed that i should have updated my inventory. Thanks Rebecca

How can stop getting messages from Ebay about sales I have no interested in?

Hi, ny buyer hasn't paid, yet i posted out their DVD assuming they'd paid as it was a buy only option. Now what do I do as I cannot find a contact # for ebay Australia?

johndiggle123

Hey, so i contaced the person that bought my product and we didnt go through with the payment over ebay so im wondering why do i still have payment fees in my account that is due?

biddyfromsligo

Isn't the postage price quoted to the buyer based on their zip code distance from my zip code? And the weight of course. This is all new to me so I am sorry if this sounds too basic. Thanks, Biddy

I have just started listing items on ebay and have not sold anything yet. Can you give some feedback on how to improve this. I don't have the store logo on as yet, I know this would help. Is there some other things I could be doing to boost sales.

joeg8434

I doesnt matter which postal servive I type in or whick dimensions, I keep getting ' error, parcel exceeds the minimum ect...' I have been stuck here for 1 hr.

hugtaylo-9

As a new account holder with only one item to sell which grossly exceeds ebay limits, how can I overcome this limitation?

Hi, looking at starting up a eBay shop, does the business need to be a registered business to start up ? Cheers Judi
