A week or so ago, without any logical reason, I suddenly found that when I click on 'Watch this item', some items do not add (ie nothing happens) whereas some items do add normally. This seemed to be entirely random as to which items would add and which would not. When an item will not add, holding down on 'Watch this item' generates a browser window which states 'Watch this item - about:blank#blocked'. I used 'Live chat' a few days ago and it was suggested the cause could be a browser issue and to delete cache & cookies. I have done this a couple of times - both times then enabled me add one item which previously would not add. Since then I have now realised that items which will not add are those where a choice ( e.g. Colour, size etc) has to be selected. When the listing is just simply one item, I can add without problem. This is totally odd and baffling, not to mention frustrating. Any help / suggestions appreciated please. Many thanks.

Hi I have emailed a seller 4 or 5 times over last few days to check and item they are selling before I buy it But I havent heard anything back from them I know its more than likely they are busy just and thats why they havent replied I can see my emails from ebay are appearing in my sent items in ebay. I just wanted to check where there any emailing issues over the last few days that would stop a seller receiving the emails thanks regards Declan

Hi there, I keep getting my payment rejected by the system despite the details being correct etc. I’ve contacted help department & they’ve rectified it temporarily twice and assured me they’ll put it right permanently but it’s still not right and the help department has become unavailable to me. Any ideas anyone? Desperately, Pete

I recently told a phone on eBay. Accepted an offer for £170 and have received £134 in my account. The fees eBay stated were £22 which I though was high enough. But it seems I was miss led as this is not what's been taken. I feel very disappointed in eBay as I would not of paid almost £40 on a £170 sell when I had the CHOICE to use PayPal. The fees are deceiving and misleading. Has anybody else experienced similar?

I was promised a refund from eBay and they have not sent it. I can't find any way to contact them. Any advice?

I bought 2 figures from seller and the othe ITEM COST £32.99 that was a Neca Aliens Genocide Red Dog Figure Xenomorph RARE he said, that was £32.99 the second figure was a Neca Scorpion Alien Kenner figure for £16.99. I bought them on 17 June 2021 but he said Estimated delivery Mon 28 Jun - Wed 30 Jun for 1 item and other item would be Estimated delivery Fri 25 Jun - Tue 29 Jun. I raised a Paypay case becasue i did not want to wait that long well at first i sent him a message saying if i pay extra postage would they ship it faster i got no repley so raised the Paypal case but staright away after the case was raised he said he has the figures all wrapped up ready to post the next day so it would be the 19 he would post, but he told me to close my Payapl case before he sends so silly me listhend to him and closed the 2 cases, as soon as i done that he said he can't post for another 72 hours so he lied about the next day posting. I then asked for a refund as i payed him with Paypal but today is the 5 July and i have no refund or items that i paid for, he scammed me by telling me to close the paypal case becasue he knew i would not be able to make a new case against him, he stole £49.98 from me and he even relisted and sold the items i payed him for, he could have easily Refunded me back into my Paypal becasue that is the way i payed him for the figures, be very caerfull of this dishonest germ of a person. Added the picture of the red alien that i bought FOR £32.99 but he relisted and is selling for £19.99, SCAMMER Also added the brown Alien i bought from him

My payment is stuck processing and after calling my bank I found that the only way to stop this is by get the merchant (eBay I'm guessing) to clear the payment how in the world do I do this when there's seemingly no way to physically contact an eBay representative?

The seller sold me a car which wasn't as advertised. He agreed to pay for all repairs. Now wont return calls or answer messages unless it is to abuse me. He refuses to pay the garage for repairs. Any advice apart from contact trading standards and citizens advice?

How do I delete the postage costs from my sold item? I had input postage costs but the buyer chose to collect in person. I can't mark it as dispatched as it adds the postage to the final price. Thanks

I want to leave a review but the item I received eventually is not updating to acknowledge it's been delivered. So I cannot seem to leave a review or accept its arrival. Any ideas anyone?

Hi Since May I have try upgrade to my individual account to bussines. Im sold trader, when I trybupgrade I have only two option to choose Commpany LTD or Partnership. Im sold trader registred with HMRC. Before in May I contacted with Ebay and they said me that is technical problem and will be sorted. Few days ago I receive message from Ebay that I should upgrade my account to bussines or my Ebay will be blocked. I can't upgrade my account because I don't have option sold trader to choose. Any Advice? Thank You
