Offers to watchers problem

[pj_bb1]

Does anybody had a problem with offers to watchers recently? Like last 3-4 days?

I'm sending offers to watchers, but nobody has taken any, and that is not normal at all on my account.

Contacted some sellers that I know, and all report the same. With one saying that he's sent 160 offers on Sunday, and not a single one converted into sale.

Sales have tanked due to that, as at least 50-60% of my sales are seller initiated offers.

Has anybody experienced similar thing recently. Just asking, before I kick up the fuss over the phone.

It's just gone quiet over the last week or two.

I have had a few offers accepted, but there just hasn't been that many sales.

So it's more likely that it's just quiet, rather than people not getting the offers.

It happened before, here on ebay uk. More than once.

Offers quiet here the odd one or two with no takers , yesterday I did notice in early evening, I hadn't sent out any offers throughout day then it was showing I could send out 56.  I started sending offers and got through the first four then the rest were "not eligible?"  My watch list had jumped up quite considerably then all the remaining offers disappeared and my watch list had gone back down more or less immediately as soon as the offers that were showing disappeared?  Whether it was a glitch as I cannot see how someone could suddenly watch 50 odd items then a couple of minutes later take them all off their watch list?

Same here. I am a private seller  and am now in the process of reducing everything selling at cost and shutting down shop. It not worth it anymore. Your cleared funds are used for  postage then held for another 2 weeks... Hard to actually earn money.  The buyer protection is too high.. To be honest I prefer to pay fees now I have to factor in the buyer protection when pricing... It's a shame, we had a good run.

I have previously logged into my private account and watched some of my items, then sent offers but I never seem to receive the offers back from eBay. I have kind of put that to the back of my mind assuming eBay had linked my 2 accounts and for that reason not sent the offers to my private account 🤔

However, I regularly send offers, mostly just 5% and do get a small take up, maybe 1 in 20

I had that glitch before, my friend. I was dealing with it for moths. Then I've reported it, and it kind of stopped. I have it from time to time, on one or two items, but I used to be like you 20-30-40 items "not eligible" and disappearing.

I'm going to try it now, but in the past I was able to send offers to my second account, so you should be able to do that as well.
