Dead as a Dodo

Ebay is.........read my title. Nearly extinct.

Hi, you've posted this for other Sellers, but it looks like you mostly use this account as a Buyer. Do you have another account you're selling on? Or are you not finding things you want to collect anymore on eBay?

Yep trying to sell a very nice dj mixer can’t get rid of it. No messages nothing. Buyer protection slaps everyone in the face including eBay. 

We had buyer protection, it’s called the money back guarantee…

That's not my experience. I'm still selling bits and peices of unwanted stuff and desperately trying not to buy anything as I'm trying to de-clutter before a potential move.

Same here - Was selling off my coin collection and autograph collection making a couple of sales a week.

Now it’s dead.

As a buyer on eBay as well as seller the buyers fee/tax puts me off buying so I can understand why eBay is dead.

Anything I now intended to list on eBay I’m selling elsewhere. Less hassle to be honest with the eBay postage options that are mandatory now.

I have some gold coins to sell and I would normally sell on eBay with special delivery up to £750.

But I have heard that eBay no longer allow you to use that option , so I’m now selling via a bullion dealer. Yes I get about £10 less on a £570’ish sale , but it’s safer to post using my options.
