No sales, buyer's premium too high - let's go back to how it was!
Since all the changes to Ebay, my sales have become pathetic. Having used EBay on and off for over 10 years, I can honestly say this is the worst it has ever been. All that has happened is Ebay have driven buyers away and people are using other sites...
Question about non EBay postage

Simple Delivery gone live? How's it going/courier choices?

Buyer Protection Fee
It’s not surprising sales are dropping off. I have just sold 4 philatelic items for a total of £16.30 and I see that a BFP of £3.55 has been added to the order. That is over 20% of the original price. In this instance the buyer seems to be prepared t...
Listing removed - aren't website links allowed?
Haven't sold on Ebay for a few years and have just had my first new listing removed. I think it's because I pasted a link to a website in the description? This is the message I received: "Your listing didn't follow our Offering to buy or sell outside...
