On 17-19 February, some sellers received an email asking them to update their UK Value Added Tax (VAT) registration on eBay or potentially be restricted from selling. This email was sent in error. Rest assured, this does not affect your ability to se...
Buyer selected collection but showing deliver to their address
I have received an offer for a item (£750 so not insignificant albeit below asking price)the buyer is certain he selected collection but when I review the offer it says “post to his address. Is this a scam or a glitch? Or am I missing something compl...
More RM Tracking issues , Seller contacted me.
Had a seller contact me today asking me to mark an item as recived so they can get paid out, the item arrived probably over a week or more ago. But the RM tracking does not show it as delivered. I can't do anything to help the seller. Ebay need to so...
Resolved! Sales 90 day figure has US$ on it when in UK
Created an account ages ago on Ebay Uk and decided to start using it today but the 90 day total is prefixed with a US$ rather than a £ ?? I checked my ebay balance and that has a prefix of £0.00....any ideas ??
The new when we get paid rules from February.
Ebay was always heavily weighted in favour of the Buyers, but this new mad rule thats coming in next month about having to wait two days after delivery is confirmed to get paid is simply beyond the pale. And sometimes delivery conformation never come...
What's happened to postage options?
Went to list something just now and the post service options have completely changed since yesterday. I usually list with free post (I then select yodel as that's my nearest/best priced drop off centre), but there's no option to offer free post. I'm ...

New Fees calculation.
OK, I understand that there are new fees applied, and I have just noted that an item I had listed at £9.99 is now listed at £11.11! The odd 11p makes it look a very unappealing price. I could list it at £10.99 and take the hit, but my question is ......
Refund coming out of EBay available funds
So I had £258 in my available eBay balance. I needed to refund somebody around £100 and eBay took it straight from my available balance. How will they add the original purchase funds into my balance as I’ll not be sending the item anymore? Will I hav...
Crazy and Mis-informed posts by private sellers re Fees
Oh Dear. I have read some posts by Private Sellers moaning about eBay Buyers Fees. Some say they are leaving, some say this is the end of eBay or RIP eBay. What tosh.eBay is a multi billion pound or $ Global Company. Some (not all) private sellers ar...
Buyer Protection fee
when you now sell something it says "What your buyer paid" and "What you earned". Both these totals include the buyer protection fee. I assume then that Ebay collect & keep this fee, but actually regard it as the Sellers income and Not Ebays income?
