selling fees
I think Ebay have a bloody cheek charging costs on top of postage. Postage is a contract between sellers and the courier, often unavoidable, and nothing to do with EBay. There are plenty of costs already, and I'm seriously thinking of not bothering a...

Buyer wants to return item. Scam?

Sending offers to buyers
Sending offers to buyers appears to be a complete waste of time, few take up the offer as they were only looking or are selling something similar, and those that do quite often fail to pay. This leaves the item in limbo for 4 days. Better to just ign...
