Hello, I have just mailed my first Ebay item from Canada to Mexico. Tracking was not an option as it is too expensive. After one month in transit the buyer says he has not received the item. I think I would be reluctant to mail to Mexico again. Anyone have any advice or experience to share in this situation ? Thank you.

I have never had such a drop in sales in all my 14 years of selling on eBay. It has been almost 2 weeks without one sale even though I have over 1000 items listed. Have other sellers noticed a decline or is it just me?

I'm listing on ebay.ca. On one listing, I have one shipping cost for all Canadians, and one for all US buyers. On .com the shipping shows the same for all. How do US buyers know what the shipping cost will be, if all they see is the shipping cost to within Canada. Just had an offer from a US buyer, but she was confused about the shipping. Unfortunately, I had to turn it down. I've been away for a while, and not used the no listing in US. I fail to see any reason for the change. Well, I've been listing for a few days only with no sales, so I may just pack it in again. Too much hassle, with no reward.

So a buyer used buy it now option on an item I had going as an auction, but I haven't received payment in two days. I sent the buyer multiple messages but haven't heard back. I guess the next option would be to cancel the transaction because I only have a short window of opportunity to sell and don't want to go through the lengthy process of unpaid items claim which I don't think will do anything anyways. My question is - if I initiate the cancel transaction, can i get my final value fee back? Or do i have to get the buyer to initiate it? Thanks.

How do I undo her bid? Is there a setting on her end or on my end?

Hello all....New to Ebay (selling) and from Canada. Just have some shipping questions if anyone could help me out 🙂 I listed a few items and used calculated shipping. Now realize that the shipping just shows up as "varied" so I am guessing the buyer has to figure out what his shipping will be or they will email me? Is this the better way to go or should I be using calculated? (just feel bad charging the person down the street and same shipping price as someone in BC). But I have read people like to see a shipping price when looking at an item. Also what is the best option to offer to ship to the U.S, should I also use calculated for them too? I was only going to ship within Canada but thought maybe I should include shipping to U.S too. Thanks so much. 🙂

I need to make a change and resend an invoice as requested by a buyer, but there is no option to send her a new invoice because I already sent her one today. How do I get around this so I can send her a new invoice?

I have several items for sale but do not have a store. Is there a way to pull all my items (20+ items / most Buy it Now) while I'm on vacation and resume when I get back or do I have to remove all the listings and then do them all over again ?? It's for over 2 weeks and that's too long to expect people to wait.. Possibly there's a workaround where I can save them off somehow.

So - I ordered a antique medical supply package from a seller in the USA. It never came. He never answered one single contact I tried to make. He apparently decided I was not important enough to worry about. Then, out of nowhere he sends me a note "your item was shipped - I am so sorry I will double check my inventory" If you do not know that I have been hounding you for 6 weeks and then you have the audacity to ask me "which item?" I complain to e-Bay, I leave feedback and it disappears and he is still out there selling his little "eccentric" items and I received my money back for the purchase cost but not a single apology nor a admittance of any type of ownership. Why did my feedback magically disappear? Why can he still receive all his little stars? I am sorry for the outrage but I have been ripped off and in North America (for this instance) and for the rip-offs overseas........I found the seller by going become a member on some China Business Forum - it was my wedding dress for the love of pete and I find my seller has set the worlds record for longest train for his bride - I only need about 6 feet (share people 🙂

Hi, Being Canadian, we are at a disadvantage with shipping charges being significantly higher than our cousins to the south. When US buyers are asked to rate the transactions, many obviously complain, and rate low the cost of shipments. That is up to Canada Post, not us. Most sellers are not able to afford to ship free, so what suggestions are there, to make this more equitable. We are rated only on our ratings from US buyers, not global. This puts us at a serious disadvantage to the US Ebay sellers, who have the ability to ship for next to nothing. I'm finding that my sales within Canada are going up, and my sales to the United States are falling. But that isn't helping my performance standard ratings at all. Very frustrating. Would appreciate any other Canadian feedback on this topic. And does anyone at Ebay care about this? Thanks for listening, Natsirt

how do I end an auction early to sell to the current bidder

livehealthyhappy

It doesn't show the options anymore when I list an item. So I am only able to use the keep it simple method, I want to use the more listing choices option.

Hello, I am from Canada, and my shipping was listed as Canada only. An ebayer bidded on my item, and wants me to ship it to the USA. I do not want to ship to this seller, as he did not listing to my shipping preferences. Can I just ignore him and contact the next highest bidder who lives in Canada? Thank you, John

They made an offer, and I accepted. They then messaged me and asked to cancel. I'm worried that if I send a cancellation request they will decline it.. If I have messages proving he did agree to cancelling beforehand will ebay or paypal side with me?

Hello, I am a first time seller, and I am very anxious about getting scammed as the item I am selling is in the $300-400 dollar range. I originally had my shipping set to Canada only (I am from Canada). An ebayer bid on my item, and sent me a messaging asking if I can ship to the USA. He ended up winning, but when I go to send an invoice, it shows his listed address as Brazil. I've heard about a scam where if the listed address doesn't match the sent address, they can cancel on paypal and you get nothing. Is there any way I can go about this where I would be protected from being scammed? Is there some way I can change the invoice address, so that paypal, the seller, and I are all on the same page? Thank you! -Grimm3r

Just curious: If a Buyer and Seller have offered/counter-offered/counter-offered again, until the Seller has finally declined the latest counter-offer, is the prospective Buyer - perhaps realizing she pushed a bit too hard -- able to resubmit an offer equal to the Seller's final offer?

I bid for 2 items and win both pay for them together via pay-pal,the day after I was told by the seller that their was an issue between my/ebay about the postal fee's. Postal fee's were free on my pay -pal bill reply to seller that it's was free and that I had nothing to do with writing out the seller bill to me,Ebay and myself was to blame for this so the sellers wrote in emails to me over the mistake that the seller miss out of the bill. Contracted Ebay right from the start about seller and Ebay was so helpful and understanding and were on my side things were getting worst with seller and myself . The seller was holding on to my goods calling me dishonest ,greed ,profiting to my gain . Contracted Ebay via phone for the 3nd time this time this seller was keeping both of my items, then after I told the seller about the call to Ebay I was refunded with out telling me the seller then open 2 case on me for not paying for each item . When I have proof that I did and know because I left feed back that the seller wrote to me in emails and it has been removed . And is could be damaging to to my side now that it's been removed because people don't know why I place this information on feedback. When we all buy off Ebay we buy because it's Honest and your getting great goods from off this site, so the feedback on seller if they have been dishonest then and only then you should be able to say so, and let members of Ebay buyer's know. And make up their own minds If they want to buy off the seller . We are here to help each other and if with issues like this on Ebay we need each others help .We are asks to give your feedback that means all of us to be honest about each other when placing feedback on here. I've been with Ebay for 5 years and this is the 1st buyer that has done this to me it's a shocker. Late week was a nightmare for all my family we thrust Ebay and don't want any other person having to put up with this .The Negative feedback that the seller wrote to me in their email's over the mistake of them missing the postal . I am sorry that some mite think that it was out of order but I am being honest was true ,with leaving feedback about amyfancyclancys items numbers 161230320275/161230316585. Why I have we got feedback if you can be honest and true .

Does anyone know how to make shipping labels print smaller when printing off of Paypal. I used to be able to adjust them (think I went into Preferences) but don't see any option to do this now. I know when printing off Chrome that it makes them postage size but was looking for something in between -LOL. I was able to do it at one time but can't seem to see any way to do it now. Any help would be appreciated.

Buyer & I have agree to cancel won item. He is from a country I do not ship to, but bid anyway then asked if I would ship. Turns out, shipping is too expensive. What is the easiest way to cancel without any negativity towards the buyer? Thanks.

As I was learning I ended up making new shipping policies rather than just editing and I have caused myself some confusion now because I have too many on the list. How do I change that list. I want to delete some of them 🙂

I can't come close to competing with China when it comes to postage. How do they ship so cheap? How can I reduce postage fees? Any ideas? 🙂

I solved the problem of it saying I didnt ship to the States at all by increasing my measurements, but now when people try to buy from me from certain States they get a message that tells them I dont sell to their State. How do I overcome that? Also what I found when I increased the dimensions is that the shipping because higher when it was not necessary. I feel bad to post shipping costs that are not realistic only because I have to make the dimensions high enough to ship to the States
