After dealing with a very unhelpful seller I was given a refund last week, but as of today 5 days later no money has gone into my account, previously when I have received a refund it has taken 1 or 2 days, any help would be much appreciated.
I sell stamps on Ebay. I don't want to use the new simple postage system which we, apparently, can't opt out of from 15th April.Most items are small and fit easily into an envelope and can go 2nd class, especially for low value items. Also we can use...
I have been an eBay seller for over 16 years with 100% positive feedback for 2045. I usually love buying and selling on eBay, BUT I am broken to never using eBay again.This week I had to deal with "the buyer from hell". It started with her purchase a...

Just been trawling through the many emails (some despairing) really about this, shocking the way we are being treated. Have been caused so much stress from this, really at the end of my tether and are making plans to leave after almost 10 years. Will...
I’ve just messsged someone via the eBay chat to voice my concerns about the new change “simple delivery” only, they totally agreed with me that selecting only RM and Evri is silly so will raise my concerns to the development team. If everyone who is ...
Absolute horror story with simple delivery. You can't opt out, can't combine the shipping, can't cancel, and add another tracking, and in the end, there is no one to contact, an absolute disaster. So now, because the person bought two items, I have t...
EBAY is banning the use of POSTAGE STAMPS -I want to support my Local POST OFFICE= Is ebay trying to close Post Offices? After 20 years using Stamps with no problem.... GOODBYE EBAY
I don't like eBay anymore, because they are now controlling how I post my items, and will now not sell on eBay again
I have put a variation listing on today with several pdf's attached for the user guides and manuals, all these are just showing as English.pdf and not the actual file name, how do I change this ?

Hi, i recently sold an item and was charged £80 for “ad fee general”, what it is and why??? I recently received an email from eBay last October to be exact that it is now free to sell on eBay for private sellers except cars so was I charged this amou...
Guys, I need your urgent advice and help. I sell PS4 controllers and have made a good amount from selling them. Why has eBay held onto my money for 5 months now?I have continuously tried to contact them, but they don't have any email or phone numbers...
Almost as bad as the bizarre "buyer getting their goods but the seller having to wait to get their payment". If it does go ahead they will lose another long term seller.
So this will be compulsory from 15 April offering a choice of Evri or royal mail. I live right next door to a yodel collection point, but quite a walk away from Evri or a post office, neither of which are on bus routes. At 78 without a car, this is a...
Postage has changed.i want to decide who i use and how much i charge
Having checked out independently delivery charges for Evri, the new costs eBay are charging us are higher than the actual cost than if we purchased ourselves!! Example : postable parcel or LL up to 1kg tracked £2.62. Parcel 1-2kg tracked £2.62 (same ...
I've got some maps on Ebay that I send using a 120cm tube. What package option should I be using as they all look to be standard sizes (ie shoe box,jiffy bags)
I have been a seller for over 10 years with 100% feed back.So my question is why is e-bay saying I have a pending payment until proof of delivery when the buyer has left feed back obviously recieved my item.This has been over a week now and still pen...

HI, can someone provide any answers? I have all my items set to 'custom postage' we have a royal mail account and so can do tracked items for less money than normal. However I am getting people arranging their own postage which would be fine but the ...
when I sell an item I always send a message to the buyer to let them know I've posted it. I've done it for ages, but today ebay wouldn't allow my message to be sent. attached is a screenshot of what I got on my phone when i tried to send a message.wh...
I have received a message from Ebay to say that I have too many 'Item not received' cases being opened by buyers due to late deliveries and if this is not rectified then my account is at risk of being down graded. As the items we sell are only very l...
Would someone help me please. I am an elderly person who lives alone in a remote place with no neighbours and I’m worried about the simple delivery rules. I’ve been selling on EBay for over 20 years and all my parcels go by Large Letter post costing ...
Having trouble buying second chance offers
My listing went active yesterday but has not appeared in search results
So now we can't cancel a postage label ? Seriously! Why? I printed a label but put the wrong weight in. Normally not a problem as you just head over to the postage section and select cancel label. But all that does is throw up an error saying "this l...
How do contact ebay by phone please. I don't use a mobile phone so cannot get a QR code to print labels. I don't have a printer either. I am so fed up with Ebay changing everything.
