Sales collapsing on eBay but nowhere else!
Good day to everyone I know we are in a recession of sorts, however I've never known in my 20 years of trading on eBay a lack of customers/sales. 2 years ago I was averaging £26K over 30 days, then it started to slide and now less than £8k Compare th...
Description formatting issues when revising advert on phone
Is anyone else experiencing problems with a nicely structured advert description becoming scrambled with formatting code added when you revise an advert on a mobile phone? I usually create my adverts on ebay.co.uk then save for later, then add my pho...
"Simple Delivery", not so simple
I am trying to sell an item that requires a medium parcel, up to 2Kg, which using Royal Mail is a standard price of £5.15 for a parcel worth up to £150 but now, under simple delivery, is £6.16 for the the same item. Apparently Ebay have set a £100 va...
Still Anti-Simple Delivery
Not sold anything since the changes in April, when I sold anything I sent by RM in a normal stamped addressed envelope with the correct postage.Always did it this way so have still got a draw full of postage stamps I purchased for it.Suppose one of t...

Resolved! Permanently suspended - funds on hold
My account has been suspended, with all products delivered, yet all of my funds are on hold (around £500) I spoke to eBay, and I was told I'd have to wait '170 days or more' to receive my funds. Has anyone else experienced this? Did you get your fund...

E bay changes My take
It is patently obvious that E bay were forced into making changes this week rather than having 'listened'.To change the fees at the lower end of the scale does seem to prove that the unwanted private sellers are in fact one of the larger dynamics for...
Resolved! To promote listings or not, what works for you? Are you increasing %, unchanged or switching off?
With the new changes coming in on promoted listings where you "pay if your promoted listing is clicked" and sells within 30 days, causing some debate, was interested to see if other sellers use promoted listings, what percentage do you set, what type...
Simple delivery - over estimated postage
All my slides are under the £10.00 limit and fit into a standard 1st. class letter, yet Ebay have changed the format to simple delivery 'Large Letter' showing £2.72 postage instead of £1.70. Any way of amending this error.
Combined postage with Simple Delivery ?
In the Simple Delivery FAQ I see no mention of combining postage when selling several items to the same buyer.Is that now gone ?! If so it will have a HUGE impact on many sellers of low value items.As a buyer I also always check sellers other items a...
Unable to edit seller promotions listing under the marketing tab
So I have several coupons running, however under one of these I need to remove a product, but since yesterday when I click edit I get this page. eBay is broken, no wonder sales are non existant if one page a seller is trying to edit is not loading, h...
New BUYERS PROTECTION FEE doesnt allow something to be listed for £29.95 incl BPF
I know this is a small thing, but £29.95 is the best price point for me for some of my listings. But now I can only do £29.94 or £29.96. Would it not be better moving forward if eBay implemented a system whereby you can set a list price you want buye...
