Is it worth having a ebay store? I have posted quite a few items but have sold very little. Seems to be more work than it is worth. Would a store boost the views?  Thanks in advance  Jimmy D ... View more

Is there any Seller Protection when dealing with a "maybe" damaged item received in the US?

I'm unfortunately dealing with a seasoned scammer potentially and am starting to shake my head what protection I have as a seller? This Buyer claims 7 days after receiving item arrived that its broken but hasn't sent me photos yet. Buyer got combined discount shipping two items together and completely got a deal on items won. Buyer purchased no Insurance or Tracking and my auctions clearly state no returns. Buyer admits her delivery carriers are always rough with her parcels and she has many damage claims but she admits she has not reported them. Buyer now expects full item refund. shipping refund and to keep "broken" item or i pay for return shipping to me. I have offered refund for item and I provided tracking free.Item is family heirloom and not replaceable. Can Ebay seriously award her a refund for item shipping and me pay return? If so I seriously don't see how a Seller is protected from scammers or buyers misusing canada to usa "insurance" policies knowing Canada seller has disadvantage. She resells this same china and currently even is reselling same bowl she claims is broken on a different site right now. I am both a Buyer and a Seller and very fair but this seems ridiculously one-sidedly unfair no?! ... View more

Buyer wants more qty and pay extra through Paypal. Is it allowed?

Buyer bought a lot of goods and the payment never came in. (cancelled or not accepted, I don't know, but I've been waiting 9 days and then, no payment approved). Now, he is asking me for more goods and a Paypal address for paying all by Paypal directly. Is it allowed by eBay? and if so, how does that sound? thanks ... View more

can non paying bidders still bid on other auctions while a case is open against them?

I have opened 2 unpaid item cases and have had no response after initial invoice or the others sent after.  Opened unpaid cases and still no response.  I am wondering if they are still able to bid on items while a case is open against them.  I am hoping not as why would they even care to complete transactions if they can just go about their shady business as usual.  ...

Where can I leave negative feedback on a transaction? I can't find that option anywhere.

I've had 2 recent transactions that warrant negative feedback to the buyer, but all I can find is a link to "Leave Positive Feedback". these cancelled sales caused no end of incovenience to me and it was solely due to the buyers' "don't care" attitude. At most I leave no feedback at all if it can't be positive, but in these two instances I feel that negative feedback is req'd. How do I do this? ... View more

Will I receive Seller Fees if I relist the item after I refund with PayPal first? If so, should I deduct the approximate Seller Fee amount from the PayPal refund? Thanks! ... View more
