Buyer spelt their address incorrectly..
I sold a couple of items this weekend. One of the buyers is from Oldham, Lanchishire, not Lancashire! It's spelt incorrectly on both their Paypal & eBay account. Should I also spell it incorrectly as 'Lanchishire' when posting item or correctly? I've heard you should always go with the address as spelt on their Paypal. Any…

Nectar Points
Just looked at the Nectar page on ebay and it says "The link between your Nectar account and eBay is no longer valid. Please set up your account again to spend your Nectar points on eBay." I can still collect points it seems, but the option to spend has been removed. I haven't had any email informing me about it and it was…

Hi I have just had an email from Paypal to say my account is now restricted until I scan in certain documents to them. I had a similar msg a few weeks ago. Is this a scam?? I've had this account for years, don't understand. Only use it for selling bits and bobs.

Item from China will it arrive?
I have mentioned previously that the very small number of items that do not arrive always seem to be the ones with tracking info included. But usually not a geuine tracking number that works. Either codes that do not relate to any genuine tracking company codes or a real tracking code that jut says delivered to the UK…

What is the best way to sell Adele tickets
I wanted to go to see Adele with my daughter on Saturday 19th March but as I didn't realise the virtual waiting room opened at 8.30am I went in there at 9am when it was almost too late. I was offered two split seats in block 401 in rows H and J. As I did not want to disappoint my daughter I bought them. However, it started…

Item sent to wrong address, dispute settled in sellers favour?!
I'd be grateful of any help here. I bought a phone from a seller on ebay who sent it to the wrong address in my street (and has admitted doing so in emails sent via ebay). The recipient sent it back to the sender and the sender promised he'd resend to me. This has never materialised so I opened a case. The item is showing…

How are people doing with their metrics on late arrivals? there was a small discussion on the community boards from people saying that the past few days has shown an increase in the number of 'late' marks they are getting. Ive checked mine and in the past 3 days I've gone from none to 3 :eek: that's just over 1% for me but…

Argggggggggghhhhhhhh - eBay is making me turn to drink
Ok so maybe a bit dramatic but I have had a few too many things happen in recent weeks and I have come to the conclusion that using eBay is not worth the hassle anymore. I sold something recently and noticed today that I had received my first negative (had nearly 300 positive - 100%). The negative basically stated that I…

MyHermes delays Forth road Bridge closure or Christmas manic?
I'm one of those people who use and like the service provided by MyHermes. However, over the last 3 weeks I have 7 parcels that show 'on the way to the customer', 'delayed in transit' or 'attempting rede livery' without showing as 'delivered' One of the buyers left me feedback, so I know that they've got their item for…

They replied saying no, that the box they were going to post in wasn't adequate and they had another sorted and would send this week. So I've waited until…

Do I have to accept a request for a return (eBay)?
I've been a seller on EBay for nearly 14 years and today I have had my first request for a return (even though I state no returns).

Advice please - Non-performing seller
I wanted to buy a bulk order of around 3kg of fudge (30ish bars) to give out at a party. I found someone that sold packs of 6 bars, and figured I'd need about 6 packs of 6. I contacted the seller, confirmed they could supply the volume and would ship it for before I needed it (party is on the 11th) and got a quote which…

Is this correct?
http://imgur.com/LxE5qOv Just want to check on this, I'm almost certainly finished with ebay, due to non payers and sellers who take an inordinate amount of time to send items that were paid for instantly. Seller had stated that they would dispatch within 2 days, on the 7th working day, I asked for a refund because I was…
