Anything worth buying for £10 on Ebay Live?

12 days for a refund to be instigated for a 100% inactive seller.
Ebay calls me on day 13 and I don't even give them chance to give me excuses. "At least you are getting your refund" is a disgraceful insult. I don't work here, I don't care any longer if ebay never realises the problem. Cue the apparent members of p...

Neither my husband nor I own a credit card and I want to bid on some cutlery, but as that includes a knife I have been asked to prove my age using a credit card. Is there another way to prove my age? Thanks, Liz
EBay is not interested
I am stunned that my post and another persons comment to it has been removed… or in EBays words archived. Needless to say I still don’t have the iPhone I bought and I still don’t have a refund. Remember that BUYER PROTECTION you pay for!!! It’s a jok...

£10 voucher complete scam?

Resolved! Ebay EVRI delivery stole my parcel
I am a seller who has sold thousands of items through ebay over the years, Now since ebay has started issuing their own delivery qr codes, I thought I might as well use them as they're probably even safer. I sent my parcel with the automated EVRI del...
