I was Shafted for selling on Ebay. Charged for Buy it now fees when item did not sell.

Why am being Charged for Buy it now fees when items did not sell.

My First item sold for £65 charged £6.50 plus £0.50 for buy it now.

Had 3 other items with buy it now but they never sold after 1 week then i removed them from buy it now and listed again.

Just received my first invoice and i am being billed a total of £8.50 = £7 for sold item and 3 extra £0.50ps for each of the unsold items that where on buy it now.

They should not be chargng when items did not sell.

Am  correct that they are also chargng me for Final Value Fee on Shipping £0.50 from my £5 postage charge. 

My cash transfered to Paypal . My £65.00 + £5.00 postage total £70.00 magicly was reduced to £67 if that was not bad enough **bleep**

 

One other thing i remember seeing a promotion when listing my items that i would only be charged a total of £3.00 for any item sold as i was new why did i not receive this deal.

 

 

My first month on EBAY has not been good.

Thought i sold my first item the 1st week only to be told that the buyer just joined ebay that day he bid and won my goods with 0 feedback and then left Ebay the same day without paying me. the goods are still showng as sold in my account but i did get a credit for the cost.

The second week my account was hacked and 2 items where bought by 2 different people and payed for via my Bank card.

**bleep** then a £0.99 pink tablet box.

 

NOT PAYNG FOR BUT IT NOW FEES THAT NEVER SOLD.

I have Not received a penny yet. Paypal got payed / Ebay invoiced  

 

**bleep**

 

Sorry for going on and on. Has anyone had these problems and can they help me.

 

Cheers.

Your language is not acceptable on here

it is a public thread and there is absolutely no need for bad lan

 

 

Listings may be free but you pay final value fees of 10% on the end price of your listing + the postage.

Yes you are right ebay charge final value fees of 10% on the item + the postage

That is what we agree too when we sign up to ebay

 

Ebay charge the fees to your account as soon as the item is sold and invoice once a month for payment

 

To check your fees go to the account tab on your MY ebay page then Summary then Fees

 See the link too fees

If you add an upgrade like the buy it now it costs 50p each time and it is not refundable

http://sellercentre.ebay.co.uk/private/what-fees-youll-pay

 

If you opened a non payment dispute then the fees will be refunded too your ebay account under the ACcount tab then Summary then Credits and taken off the next invoice available

 

Did you take time to read about fees 

Ebay policy for new or infrequent users is the 21 days hold. Again for new or infrequent sellers

Once you get up and running then you get your money straight away

 

The offer of the £3 final value fees you had to accept the offer and also check to make sure that you were entitled to use it

 

You are selling a lot of new items

If you are buying to sell then you have to register as a business
