GSP LESS THAN USELESS-PART2!!
Just received an e-mail from E-Bay saying that the funds in question are now released!! A BIG thumbs up for agent Bharat-sorted in less than an hour!! The question is still-why should sellers have to go through this to get THEIR money? The " funds 24...
Mistaken listing
I made a mistake on listing an item which I forgot to add a minimum price which should be £20 , it now has a £1 bid on it and it won't let me cancel the listing , what can I do ?
Resolved! Insertion Fees
I just discovered that I paid some insertion fees on items I listed on the 30th March - end of month. I am a private seller and I assume that I made more than 300 listings that month and I just got my timing wrong. I sell very little and just relist ...
GSP-STILL LESS THAN USELESS!!
Once again, the wonderful GSP at Lichfield have made a mess of my sale. Item was delivered to them on Weds.9th at 6.00am. It's now Friday 11th-funds STILL not released!! Just got onto an agent who was very helpful and suggested that E-Bay's tracking ...
'Simple' Shipping debacle and it hasn't even started yet...
Sales have been almost non-existent recently so I went into my listings to do a little 'Sell Similar' and what an eye-opener THAT was! All my Free P&P Listings were showing as follows:All my listings were initially listed by me as Free P&P with mail ...
Ebay UK management
I wonder what is going on in the Ebay UK management meetings. Presumably Ebay were losing market share to other platforms and had the idea of making it free to sell for private sellers. So back in September they removed final value fees for private s...
How the Hell do I combine postage for several items?

FOR GOODNESS SAKE WHAT IS GOING ON WITH eBAY ???Visited my local Post Office outlet this pm. The customer in front of me had 4 of her items sold on eBay refused due to incorrect printed labels supplied by fleece-bay. The member of staff confirmed thi...
Infantile compulsory delivery options - just to deter private listings?
So Simple Delivery has been enforced on some of my listings this morning. "Simple" in terms of brainless. At the moment, there is the option to change things back but I don't know if that will last. Some fool decided you could pack a glass sugar & cr...
eBay now asking for NI numbers
I set up a new private account not long back for selling off genuinely unwanted goods (as I said before, better off selling them on a private account than paying full fees or watering down the clothing business selling nans old china stuff). 30 sales...
GoodBye, so Long and thanks for all the fish
Right, thats me leaving for now After having sold abook cheaply, and having eBay force me to try and use Evri, after it was specifically excluded. I had to cancel the sale and received a really arrogant msg back from the buyerI spoke to CS and they o...
Simple Delivery postage costs problem
I think I'll be done on the 15th as well. I've been trying to switch over to SD before the deadline and it's just not working. I've excluded Evri, for obvious reasons but when I try to use SD for an LP I get shown (when revising the listing) that the...
Ebay buyer protection fee? Genius move or own goal?
I've got a lot to unpack about ebays recent performance so please scroll on if long stories bore you.So I've seen a couple of threads on here about the new buyer protection fees but other than a couple of tiffs between the "die hards" and the "have n...
