    best offer/manage offers be aware when listing or re listing

    just be aware peeps when listing or relisting an item go back into view your listing and revise it by turning best offer off

    e bay are pulling a crafty one by leaving best offer off when listing then switching it on when it goes live

    you can decline the offers but if you have a set price you can end up with unwanted offers

    are they that desperate for selling fees to resort to a underhand tricks campaign..

    eBay think they are doing you a favour as nobody is biting. I do get the frustration though as it means wasting time editing listings.


    Thankfully on a business account eBay don't interfere like that but it’s not free to list so which is worse.


    I never enable offers but it does lead to messages like this one I got today. The lowball offers can’t be stopped whatever you do 😆

    I was tempted to say go and find a pair worth a tenner then but didn’t want to be petty. I might need to drop the price on those but to try and leave me with £5 after fees and postage (it’s free postage as well haha) is a bit of a liberty.


    Yeah some Vinted ones are funny. A guy kept haggling over 5p the other day, in the end I just accepted as I knew he wouldn’t pay anyway, and he didn’t.
