seller fees - explained - WHAT TO AVOID

I'd hate to work for customer support, because I gave her an earful, and it sounds like she's use to it.

Each time (every 2nd listing) "Thanks for being with ebay for 14 years"

Well maybe it's time to leave..

firstly, the "payouts" of -$123.45

Yeah, because that makes sense *rolls eyes* NEGATIVE funds is not a pay-out.

The Payments tab (as a whole) is incomprehensible. It seems to be intentionally deceptive.

Fees & postage costs should be automatically deducted. Leaving us with how much me WE earned, NOT eBay

BEWARE eBay FEES: for 3 or 5 day auctions, sub-titles, and the flat rate can be 20% sometimes 30%

Among all the other FEES I'm yet to discover. I sold several items for $0.99 because I don't like waste, if someone can use it then that's better and greener for the environment. Until I realized, it was costing ME money.  I told the girl that several items didn't even sell.. But of course, eBay still charged me.

Google eBay stalking scandal. Tells you about all you need to know

I stopped reading when I got to "because I gave her an earful"

 

There are no excuses to be nasty or rude to someone just doing their job.

 

I'm not interested in offering help or advice to someone who behaves that way.

 

Do better.

Couldn’t agree more. How did we get to the stage where every shop / service place you enter needs a sign that says “We believe our employees deserve to be treated with respect. Rudeness, swearing or intimidating behaviour will not be tolerated”. Or words to that effect. In the “good old days” people may have grumbled about having to wait in a queue; now apparently they feel entitled to vent their displeasure to the poor employee.

I agree with you, eBay is not the best place to buy and sell now. Try also Whirlpool to leave you comment to have a fair say  instead. 


Its not Ebay's fault that OP failed to check out the fee's before listing,   They have being a member for 14 years and havent taken the responsibility to find out,

Oi!

Haven't you got over 500,000 posts (possibly many more) to read?

How do you find time to cherry pick the threads that you reply to?

nic is unhappy with eBay as is using every opportunity to spam the boards about it.

 

Rather than doing as he suggests and going elsewhere.
