eBay Is Dead

[pinball-fantasies]

I am thinking eBay as a selling platform is dead since the seller protection was added ? I wonder if eBay have notice the decline in sellers since new rules started . In my 20 years of selling on eBay Ive never seen it like this

I have 20 watchers on my account , most of them are still selling but their sales have fallen to almost to nothing over the last 2 months and a few sellers have gone from the platform , its like all the buyers have gone

I wonder if eBay have notice the fall in sales or do they really care anymore

Is eBay a sicking ship and now doomed ?

What I hate the most is having to wait for your money two days after it has been delivered. Forced to use tracked 24 or special delivery if you want your money three or four days later.

I won't be part of their temporary loan facility !

If they do an about turn, SD and BPF out the window - maybe...

I totally agree with you, I have had to fight tooth and nail to get earnings from a sale, the buyer selected the wrong postage offered to him and royal mail refused to deliver the item. I had communication with the buyer who then started a case against me as the item had not been delivered... eBay instantly took the buyers side and refused me the payment even though I phoned eBay to clarify I had no control over the postage as a seller. It wasn't until the buyer made veiled threats through eBay's messaging that I decided to recontact eBay. I informed eBay if they didn't look into the case again I would be contacting the police and trading standards. Funny old thing, the following day the funds from my sale were back in my eBay balance and available for immediate withdrawal into my bank account, I now note the postal choice although provided by eBay will be reverting back to sellers choice and not the buyers in the near future, I am keeping my eBay activity to the bare minimum till eBay start to get things in some sort of order.

Gone are the days of selling on ebay mate & i thought it was bad when paypal used to hold our money.

They never ever back the seller, now it's there simple delivery which we have to abide to otherwise we will get told off like a naughty school kid!!  & now the HMRC warnings. ive got loads of my own stuff I wanted to sell which I bought new and paid tax on!!!!!... so now ebay & HMRC have joined forces it's not possable .....it's stress after stress. 

THE LIST IS ENDLESS OF WHAT A COMPLETE JOKE EBAY ARE.

(no doubt they will restrict my account for being honest)
