Pricing has changed
Heads up. I almost always price Buy It Nows at prices ending in 99p: £9.99, £19.99, £24.99 and so on. Just sold an item and was surprised to find the buyer had pad £20.01. Checked my listings and most have gone up by 1p or 2p. Looks silly! Anyone els...
MC011 - RESTRICTED FROM SELLING PERMANENTLY
So over the past week I've been going back and fourth with ebay regarding them putting my payments on hold and later on receiving a permanent selling restriction. The craziest thing about this suspension and a few things that I want to make public re...
Yet another...Simple Delivery shipping label refund problem!
Sold an item today, had to immediately refund buyer as they said their address was wrong (re-listed item and they bought it again after updating to their correct address). The listing has me as seller covering shipping cost. But when the refund was d...
NO LONGER SELLING DUE TO SIMPLE DELIVERY
AS OF 15TH APRIL MY DAYS AS A PRIVATE EBAY SELLER WILL STOP AFTER 19 YEARS.I AM FED UP OF THE GREED OF EBAY AND I HOPE OTHER EBAY SELLERS DECIDE TO NO LONGER LET THE EBAY CONTROL FREAKS HAVE THIS MUCH CONTROL OVER PRIVATE SELLERS.
Country/Region of Manufacture and Country of Origin
I'm hoping this is just in the categories I sell in but I seem to have stumbled across a major problem. When the whole US tariffs affair started obviously eBay asked for the Country/Region of Manufacture to be filled in, which I'm sure everyone did d...
Resolved! Feedback from buyers
Hi there, Has anyone else noticed that buyers just can't be bothered to leave feedback? Of the last 9 items I have sold and that have been delivered, only 3 buyers have left feed back. I always reach out to the buyer when an item sells, to thanks the...
eBay threatening extra fees
EBay have threatened me with additional selling fees due to INAD being very high, this is simply down to disrespectful eBay buyers lying for free returns. How do I combat this without offering free returns as I’m not a charity
Pre paid label shambles
I clicked on the thing to get a pre-paid label, which I won't use as I always post 1st Class door to door. The system then told me I have posted the item (I haven't) and I cannot see how to add first class postal tacking number when I do post the ite...
Resolved! Item sold: BPF doesn't add-up...why?
Sold item, as private seller using Simple Postage: 14.95 [13.88 + 1.07 BPF] with free shipping. These amounts show on the original item page, so I know they are right. Yet on the Order Details page, it shows this: Note how the BPF shows only 0.89 (no...

Buyer refunded for item and ebay say I will not get it back
So this has never happened to me before - seller bought an item from me, it arrived yesterday. They messaged me this morning to say they wanted to return it as it had a mark on. I agreed and told them to open a returns case. The next thing I got an e...
Last time for me
I set up a personal account a few weeks ago to sell some unwanted personal items rather than them going through my business account. I had read a great deal of bad things about Simple Delivery but thought I'd see how it goes. My last item was sold th...
Dear Eve
It would be good to see everyone else's "Dear Eve" letters here. I can't post the email addresses, but just ask copilot. Feel free to copy mine, post the one you have already written. Even if you are just quitting the platform, don't tell us on the f...
Making Tax Digital for Income Tax
With the MTD for IT becoming mandatory from April 2026 what low cost accounting software do other Ebayers use that will make this possible. With profit margins squeezed and postage costs forever increasing turnover can be high enough to make MTD mand...
New simple postage
I now send simple postage. Big problem. The default setting seems to be small parcel, I set up the listing for large letter, save it and go back to check it and its small parcel-I sell books. Is Artificial Intelligence proveing its artificial- how do...
