stopping 'live auctions' on ebay from announcements on an iphone
I'm not sure how best to describe my question- so stick with me. I get quite a bit of ebay traffic through the ebay app on my iphone, and open the pop ups to see if it's a message or confirmation of an offer or whatever. However I am plagued by 'live auctions' I click on the ebay 'message' and it immediately opens a live…

Buyer beware! Delivered = Not Delivered
Buyer beware! Delivered = Not Delivered Second time I've been scammed like this Just ordered some bulk coffee pods £40+ (currently £60 on Amazon), received with only 2 days date on. Returned these. Got a refund a week later. Fine. I guess? Found a different seller, confirmed good date, ordered and paid. 3-5 days deliveryNo…

Non payers
What is the ‘punishment’ for non paying bidders? Out of nine items sold over the last two weeks, three have not paid. We are talking £2 each here 🤬 I’ve cancelled the sales after a week, should I be doing anything else? One of the ‘buyers’ has many positive feedbacks but lots of them are saying they’ve not paid.

Automatic transfer of eBay funds to bank account - good or bad?
Apologies if this has been discussed before but I am not a regular here and a quick look at the last few index pages didn’t throw anything up. I tend to sell on eBay in fits and starts. I won’t sell anything for a few months and then have a clear out to raise some funds. I am into HiFi and every now and then I decide I…

USA Postage
I have sold a £10 item to the USA, the cheapest eBay postage it £17.99, can I still go to the post office and buy a stamp for it or is it to do with Tariffs? If it's Tariffs I will have to cancel the sale.

Kraft or Honeycomb Packing Filler
Appreciate advice on the best option to fill the box space when sending items ? I use bubble wrap to protect the item, but to fill the cushioning gap, I'm torn between using the flat-then-scrunched Kraft-type paper you get in Amazon boxes or the Honeycomb version. Both lightweight I know...but do members favour one over…

Tax on ebay
So like most im a bit confused. If I sell 29 items (under the £1000 limit) then I don't need to pay tax or declare it? If im working @20% tax then I still don't need to pay tax or declare as long as it's under 30 items? I'm assuming the above goes for both new and old goods(that are bought on to resell. ) Thanks for any…

Bought item registered as stolen - how do I contact EBay?
Bought an electronic device from a private seller in trying to set it up turns out it can’t be registered as it has been reported lost or stolen. how do I contact EBay about this?

Hi, I'm only a very occasional seller on eBay. Since I last used it, the Simple Delivery has been introduced. I have an item which on arrival had a part missing - on sending it was definitely there. The buyer has been messaging about it, and we've agreed a return. But I cannot see how to send the buyer a return label. I…

Royal Mail delivering my parcels to a wrong address and Aliexpress parcel
Hiya. Since about 2 years ago, Royal Mail started delivering my parcels to a wrong addresses, particularly one address. Two years ago it happened once or twice, but recently it got more frequent.

Won item, paid, item not sent yet. Not saying how long in between yet, just want to gage replies first. Seller messaged apologising for delay as death in family and will send asap, but no update as posted yet on Ebay. How long would you chase up from the message?

I’d often buy multiples of the same item over period of months, and…
