Contact Seller issue

Hi everyone,

 

I am unable to contact sellers.  When I click on the contact seller link, the small window on the right opens up but it won't let me type anything in the space provided and the "send message bar" is greyed out. I am using the latest Firefox version. Is there some setting I need to adjust?

Thank you.  

In their wisdom eBay changed it 🙄

 

You now have to click on Send message, then type

Thank you for reply,  twyngwyn. I have tried that but the Send Message bar is greyed out and unresponsive when I click on it.  Please help.  

 

Can you click on any of the seller’s items to ask a question?

Is it a question about something you have bought and has not arrived or not as described?

 

Or a question you have about an item you are interested in buying and what you need to know is not in the description? 

Hello twyngwyn: I cannot click on any sellers items to ask a question.  In this case though, I am trying to send a message to a seller about an item I bought but have not received.

You can open an item not received dispute without having to message the seller

 

What is their feedback as a seller like?

 

Where are they registered? 

 

 

Hello sandypebbles: I am trying to send a message to a seller to let them know the item I bought has not arrived + I also cannot contact any seller to ask a question about an item.  Once I click on Contact Seller, a small window opens to the right but it won't let me proceed to typing and sending message.

Is the item past the Last Estimated Delivery Date?

If not then you will have to wait to open an Item Not Received Case.

If so then use the eBay Money Back Guarantee... that will get the seller's attention.

As said

 

You do not need to message the seller about this

 

If the item is overdue,

 

Open and follow through with an item not received dispute

 

Don't let the seller trick you into closing it if they should happen to message you and tell you to close it and they will help you if they do etc etc

 

 

What is the item number?
