No. You are right I did do that. How sneaky of ebay to immediately switch the tab to accept as solution after you hit the reply button. Again, I acknowledge that that was my mistake but it just shows how sly ebay is. Probably half the Accept As A Solution date are mistakes - which is what they have intentionally done.

 I did not exclude Sydney - only an insane person would exclude themselves from 50% of the marketplace and ebay can not fix this glitch. Those re the facts

What part did you not understand? Ebay have been trying and failing to fix this situation for many years and it's crazy that my only option is to close my store and start from scratch. In fact I'm getting angry as I'm typing this. I should have made this public far earlier. The situation is so amateurish and I've barely said a word on social media. 

Please do something better than gatekeeping for a monopolistic entity that engages in all sorts of amoral practices - like still charging a seller for commission on money the seller has refunded. Legalised theft in my opinion.
