eBay

Hi I am quite new to EBay - just received an "offer" to my email account. Looks genuine but then the email has come from a buyer outlook email address, not Ebay. Pressed respond and that took me to an Ebay page saying that the server is down. I assume that this is a fake offer, can anyone advise if this has happened to them and should I report (and how!) Many thanks ... View more

I bought an item from an ebay shop that sell Xmas lights and other stuff, the lights were faulty and he agreed to send new ones out straight away, no problems . However he kept saying they have been posted and stalling for time, then he was going to post again. Nothing ever appeared and as soon as it went pasted the time limit for ebay to step in or to leave bad feedback, he no longer responds to any messages. I offered to send lights back but nothing. Lesson  learned, I was even going to buy something else of him just to leave feedback and report him.    ... View more

Hello,   For some time I've been experiencing problems getting items delivered to a "click and collect" address.  An example address for a recent order is as below;   Hempstead Valley eCP:GAHXJJXW Hempstead ME7 3PB United Kingdom   Some delivery services have had problems delivering because the address is "incomplete" as they have stated.   Hermes have managed, as well as Royal Mail, but for some reason Yodel do not seem able to deliver.   Address should read as;   Argos within Sainsburys Hempstead Valley Shopping Centre Hempstead Valley eCP:GAHXJJXW Hempstead ME7 3PB United Kingdom   Now, the problem is, when trying to relay the problem the Ebay Customer Services, their agents seem adverse to help rectify the problem or are unable to help! Seems to be way above their "pay grade" so to speak.   Solution, would be to make contact with the higher level of Customer Service, if one does exist. Or even a Manager or Executive that does have the power to address this problem.   I know this anomaly is causing problems for other buyers and sellers, ongoing for a few weeks now.   How do I cut through the "red tape" to get this request to the right dept or person within Ebay??   Any suggetions/solutions would be most helpful.   Regards Dick (A voice in the wilderness!) ...

So, I was only bidder on a book. I suspect the seller hoped it would achieve far more bids. I paid directly. Next day seller cancelled my order and gave me a refund, saying they had to self isolate and therefore couldn't post the item. I messaged seller saying I was sorry to hear they were self isolating but happy to wait until they could post the item. Have not heard back despite 2 other messages to seller. I feel they will just relist the item in the future hoping for greater bidding. Do I have any recourse to ask seller to honour the auction?? ... View more

I received an item that wasn't as described in the listing. I won an auction for a vinyl album. In the listing it said that the album was in near mint condition. When I received it and played it there are several major scratches on side A which are very audible when played. I started a return request through the eBay system. The seller has contacted me through eBay suggesting that I cancel the request and he will refund me the full amount paid plus I can keep the album as he doesn't want it back (not that I want to keep it). My question is if I do as he requests and he doesn't reimburse me can I open a new return request for the same item to get a refund? ... View more

Anyone else think the new system is ridiculous waiting on payments to clear ( and taking invoice amounts of you before they're due on a sale ?! ) Thus having buyers wait longer on items as I'm not sending before I'm paid ! ... View more

I went on to managed payments yesterday (under protest but what can you do?)  I had some old foreign and sixpences that actually finished the weeks listing yesterday and when i went to relist them i was told that i am not allowed to as a private seller under the managed payments system.  WHY?  if i could sell them yesterday why not today (yes, i know it is in the new T&Cs but why is it?  Anyone of you experts out there have a reason. ...
