I always have 20-30 active listings on the go, and typically sell 2 or 3 items a month. My items are always priced competitively to sell, but lately I've noticed I haven't sold anything since February. When I reviewed my listings this evening, I noti...
Ebay confirms when Simple Delivery will be Mandatory

Is anyone else having problems with Simple Delivery or is it just me?
