What do you consider designer?
I am just wondering what is officially considered designer these days? According to some people, designer tends to be an item that comes with a higher-end price tag. However, to others it can be of lower value, as long as it falls into a certain name...
Whats the protection for a seller who recieves a fake item BACK in a return?
Have sold my Breiling watch for £1050 will send signed for service. What protects me against a buyer "claiming" its a fake and sending me back a cheap replica or some other rubbish and keeping my watch and ebay giving a refund? Its a private sale not...
eBay seller protection isn't worth the paper its written on!
Ive sold quite a few items over the last several months and 99% have gone through with no issues. Unfortunately a few months back I had a buyer in the USA who contacted me reporting that the item they received was damaged and this was due to improper...
Account restrictions - valid ID ridiculousness
Just been told, after a number of requests for valid ID, that my account has been restricted. I uploaded my (out of date) passport and heard NOTHING from ebay, and now this? I don't have an in date passport, nor drive, or have a national ID card. Spo...
Schedule "A" Case INTERNATIONAL WATCHMAN, INC. No.: 1:24-cv-22046 copyright infringement
I'm in the UK. Got notified about this by Florida case by Sriplaw Attorney Joel B. Rothman last week. I'm a private seller, had a single nato strap listing removed by ebay under VeRO rules two weeks ago. Sounds like they are accusing me of counterfei...
Resolved! Global Shipping Program USA to UK - Not working US seems to have been taken away this morning
Hey all, This morning I've had several customers contact me from the US saying that even though they are watching my items, and could purchase them yesterday through the GSP they can no longer do this and all my other items that they are not watching...
Simple delivery option is missing
I tried to list something today and simple delivery option is no longer shown. Has there been an update to remove it? How can I use it as, for me, it works really well.
It needs to be more visible when a buyer pays for upgraded postage.
I offer free delivery on most of my items, but also offer next day postage for a fee. I tend to miss when a buyer upgrades postage a lot. You get no indication on the "manage orders" page, you have to go into the "order details page" to check if they...
Reviewing buyers
I had two similar items for auction and one has paid, one hasn’t. I accidentally reviewed the buyer that hasn’t paid, not that big an issue, but why does eBay encourage reviews with leave feedback if the item has not yet been paid for? Also why doesn...

Resolved! Global Shipping Program jumped in price to same buyer
Three weeks ago I sold a box of 42 magazines to a buyer in the States. The GSP charge for the buyer (Sales tax, transaction fees, postage label) was £43.23. The buyer wanted 4 more magazines, which would obviously be less bulky to send, and I set up ...
Removal of listing
Good eveningI have been selling hatching eggs in here for 10 years and have just had my listings removed for policy violation. Has anyone else had this happen ? Also if I search hatching eggs and I can purchase from multiple buyers who is this the ca...
Buyer protection fees don’t add up
Hi, I've been selling items on eBay for years (mainly games) & I’ve recently listed a game which has the new ‘buyer protection’ added to the buy it now price but the final price is a lot higher. I’ve set the buy it now at £29.99 with £2 postage which...
Fee Changes have KILLED Private buying & Selling
As a buyer and seller on here for 22 years, I'd like to congratulate the people who came up with this buyer protection scam. Let me refresh you with the original announcement and I Quote: "At the end of 2024, we changed our fee structure, making it f...
why does Ebay persist with using Evri (formerly Hermes)
So every single parcel I have ordered via Ebay has been delivered to a neighbour who is elderly and recovering from cancer. After the eighth occasion and after going round in circles with an auto-bot clearly intent on avoiding passing me onto a real ...
