Seller Central

Sometimes we forget there are customers like this out there....

We read so many problems situations with buyers, expectations, problems etc, I thought it worth putting out there the other end of the spectrum. Got a call from a customer a couple days ago. They were concerned because they purchased an item from me ...

WHAT HAPPENED TO EBAY?

I'm sure my story is not unique. I have read many stories of people having the Seller part of their account suspended for no good reason. The reason I was given is I didn't sell enough. I stopped selling due to aging parent care etc. way before 2010....

Shipping shock - the big cost of shipping small items

This is a bit of a rant, more like sticker shock I suppose. Not that I didn't expect overseas shipping to rise significantly this year, but honestly. I just sold two sewing patterns (280 grams total weight) to a customer in Australia. I haven't sold ...

Over the years I have bought Pre-paid envelopes to use when needed. I have used a few, but have some from a couple of years ago. How long do they last, and will I have to add more postage when I use them now? Tia.

Wonder if it's possible to charge buyers a fee for reneging on purchases?

Would be a good idea. 10% for those who pay then want to reverse a payment, 5% for those who bid and don't pay. These non-payment strikes are silly "wrist-slaps" to people who live to be consumed by buyer's remorse. The buyers are adults, they should...

Summer update

Check your spam folder. The update arrived. Straight to the spam folder. If this is so important, maybe it should have been sent to the "messages" in "my ebay". So much junk mail every day, I barely look at it.

Outdated Verbiage For Seller Tools

Back when eBay was small and it was a hobby thing to do, the verbiage used for both sellers and buyers was of little consequence as it was a community of small users. eBay has now grown into a huge company with diversified sales and I find the verbia...

Cannot check / edit active listings

Beware of refunds

Not only is the seller due back what they paid for the item, shipping, etc., but you are on the hook for the TAXES now being charged by Ebay directly, as opposed when the seller receives them. California is a good case in point.

eBay marketing videos on Facebook and Youtube

I know it's weird ... but before today I'd never visited the eBay Canada Facebook page. The content there is actually kind of interesting. The question I ask myself is this. Why is this content not all over the airwaves and www? The videos are well p...

Divide and conquer - NOT

As the regular readers know, a couple months or so ago I began selling on both .COM and .CA having been a solely .COM seller before that. For a variety of business reasons I decided it made sense to list Canadian centric items on .CA and everything e...

Resolved! Summer Seller Update

My excuse is being a senior but I lack a lot of patience when it comes to reading eBay enhancements. It seems that Catalogue Numbers associate with Brands; at least NEW merchandise. If I'm listing used English bone china for example, is there any new...
