Who is ebaying today?

[2chappies]

I thought I'd get this thread up again.:-)

I've had enough excitement here for one day and am off to find my zzz's.

Good thing the weekend is coming up so we can play with all this new stuff.

Can someone tell me what they're selling in this listing? I'm really confused.

Apollo Babylon 5 Red Dwarf Titanic Independence Day

Do they have multiple sets of these books or what? And is it 'legal' by eBay standards.

So they have a heap of books and have bundled them all into the one listing to save on listing fees, and the time and effort involved in creating individual listings.

Lazy seller, and a sure-fire way to cop bad FB and stars. Apart from the red text stating '*****All Books Sold Individually *****', they haven't given any other information about choosing a title. And having photos of 2 books together is also asking for trouble.

Another one that can't be reported,so this seller will get away with it and then others will think they can do the same.

There are a number of listings now that can't be reported that violate eBay's own terms and policies and will cost them money.

Congratulations must go to the bright spark that decided to change the report system and the one that decided to try and hide live help,(they must be brilliant,:^O).

Hopefully they haven't hired too many of them as there are probably a lot more working items that need to be fixed to this sites standards,:-(

Thanks for checking. Wasn't certain what I was reading.

The listing can be reported as a choice of different items is being offered.

Thanks,I know it could be reported,but there is no option in the report link that can be used to report it.

If you report it using one of the options and it doesn't "fit" that option nothing will be done.

They have also done away with the brief description that you used to be able to give to explain further why it was being reported.

The options given as to why it's being reported are now very limited and there are a number of listings that can't be reported now because of it.

It's the same when the 0 feedback scammers start listing again,(which could mean 1000's of members ripped off and no way to report them except to try life help),X-(

Report item => Report Category 'Listing practices' => Reason for report 'Avoiding eBay fees' => Detailed Reason 'Offering choices'

I might have another go at reporting that listing later, if I have time. I have class this evening, I shouldn't be here now, you haven't seen me...
