Hi, Had auction about 2 - 3 months ago, did not sell 2 x pool covers. Someone has just messaged me via eBay asking if I still have them. Can I deal direct now, or should I go through eBay as that was how I was contacted. Thing is, these covers are both for 25m lap pools and are huge, so will have to be pick up / cash etc anyway so no paypal fees, but eBay fvf would be substantial. Advice ? ... View more

I am a bit concerned that I'm not providing enough communication to people who are buying from me. Actually, I only communicate directly with them if they have a question that needs answering as I thought that they would be automatically notified when their shipments are sent off, etc., by eBay.   If that's not the case, would anyone be able to outline a good plan for making sure you communicate sufficiently.   For example, should you email them an invoice once they have checked out?   Should you send off a note letting them know when the  shipment has been sent?   Any other suggestions. Thanks in advance. ... View more

I am new to selling on ebay.   I listed items with registered mail as the only option for postage. I did not know there were options. Since that first listing, I have seen that I can offer free postage as well as registered mail. Before RELISTING, I would like to edit the postage section to reflect free postage as well as other choices.   Is editing the postage section possible before relisting or does that then become a new listing?   Thank you for any and all help! ...

Hoping to get some advice on a problem of my own making.   I have made an error in listing an item on a 5 day auction instead of a 24 hour auction. As it co-ordinates with an item I have on a 24 hour auction, and I hope to attract bidders who may be interested in both items,   I would like to remedy the problem and bring both auctions into ending in the same time frame. I don’t seem able to adjust the auction duration when I attempt to revise the item – I think due to the fact that I have had one bid already.   Do I need to contact the bidder and ask if they mind my cancelling their bid, then, if they do not mind, cancel their bid, cancel the auction and relist the item? Or is there a simpler way to fix my error?   Thanks ... View more

I hope somebody can help me as I'm sitting here really upset & can't go to bed as I don' feel like sleeping.   A long time buyer with good feedback bought an item from me about 11/72012 & sent email to advise payment would be made by Bank acoount.   I waited some time, as I was not well myself, and sent a couple of emails reminding of payment but received no reply. I opened an Unpaid Item Dispute 11/8 and after no response, closed it yesterday, 16/8.  Last night (16/8) received an email from buyer apologising for delay & advising there had been a murder in the family, and would now pay.  I then received another email straight after as buyer had received notification of unpaid item dispute against them.   I do not want to cause this buyer any problems, but on reading eBay's policies, it seems only buyers can as for strikes to be removed - have I intepreted this correctly? I feel so bad, as my instincts told me there was some problem, but because of no contact (couldn't find a phone no.in white pages & didn't think to contact eBay for contact details) thought it best to just end the dispute.   I believe this eBayer, as the items bought would not be purchased unless wanted.   Am I able to contact eBay and ask for strie to be removed? ...

The seller only wants to trade, not sell - is this allowed? I assume he is trying to get around seller fees - or is this a scam? They have 100% feedback and have sold 321 items before, but this is the first listing like this - also, all his other listings are the same at the moment... I can't find answers on eBay so thought I'd ask here! Cheers   ... View more

I'm planning to actually go into business with a view to becoming an ebay trading assistant, however I'm not sure if in the beginning just selling for friends whether I need the abn & business name or if it is only when I am actually an official trading assistant or advertising my services to those outside of close friends. I will not be treating this as a hobby, however initially as I'm building up my selling ability I'm not expecting a large profit just enough to make ends meet.   Thanks ... View more

Hi, Is a seller allow to state in their listing that they have a reserve price on a electronics item and they will only seller to the winning bidder if they have met their reserve price. As nobody knows what the reserve is then I would think alot of seller would do this and if they didnt get what they want from an item they are selling then they can just cancel the listing if their expected sale price is not met. I thought you could only put a reserve on vehicle, boat, motorbikes etc. Please correct me if I am wrong. Thanks in advance. Cheers  ... View more
