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? Every pathway I try sends me down a ‘contact seller’ or ‘report as not received’ route and the EBay guidance on stolen goods only seems to…

Having vowed never to try and give anything away again on facebook - i relented and offered up a small item of furniture that's far too good to throw away, it's also on freegle and similar places.

Contact seller question.
I have ordered a couple of items from the same seller, from e-bay earlier this month. The items have not yet arrived and are not showing as "dispatched" either. Payment for the goods is showing on my CC bill. Payment is less than £100. In the meantime, NOT saying there is a connection here but, there has been some…

How to send buyer a return label with Simple Delivery?
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. I have tried to complain to RM but they dont accept complaints about lost parcels from recipients, only from senders. Funny…

How long to leave it to chase progress?
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?

Vinted, a few months ago i was advise i had to become a pro seller, now i have to provide business
Morning,I started selling on Vinted last year to clear out items I had accumulated.

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

Royal Mail Issues ?
Hi. Is anyone experiencing Royal Mail mega slow delivery issues at the moment ? Dispatched 2 items to different buyers via Tracked 48 last Wednesday 17th. Neither have updated on Online Tracking and buyers haven't received items. Normally, T48 lands within a couple of days without fail. I appreciate 48 hours delivery isn't…

Seller details
When a buyer purchases an item via eBay, does the buyer see a private sellers name or address on eBay - on the invoice etc? If a label is printed the sellers address is displayed a the return address (although this can be changed in settings beforehand I guess). Is a return address displayed on a QR Code printed label too?

Ebay Evri drop off issues
My local Evri drop-off is very handy as it's just 10 minutes walk away. However, they now only accept small packages. Anything larger than a typical shoe box gets refused. I just tried to drop off a shoe box containing a pair of boots (so a little larger than your typical shoe box) and the shop owner refused to take it. I…

Using PayPal on site like Timu rather than my own bank details
hi, having looked at Temu etc, I am reluctant to use my own bank details to make a purchase. I was wondering if it would be better to use PayPal, that way it would be more secure. I was wondering what peoples experiences with PayPal have been like in addition would there be an alternative. Many thanks

Do Charity Listings On Ebay Affect My Tax Quota?
I understand that I have a £1000 allowance selling on eBay before I'm liable to pay tax. Also, that I have a 30 sold listings limit (per year?) before being flagged up for tax scrutiny. My main question is this: If I sell to declutter, giving 100% of proceeds to a charity via the eBay checkout system and using "eBay Simple…

Selling on ebay after a few years away
Have a few queries, What is with the payment holds and how long do they last? I think I will get some due to a break. Why is there a code in the middle of the address, something like ebaylt7dfc (made that up), is it relevant if you aren't using ebay's printed postage (which is what I assume it is for)? What happen to Royal…

Large letters RM delays
I know we have had threads regarding RM delaying letters and potentially LLs as well, but I've now had 3 'where's my item' messages in less than 24 hours. I personally think the buyers are being a bit prompt ,1 was sent Tuesday and 2 on Wednesday, but according to ebay all should have arrived by now. Luckily 2 of them were…

Seller change mind after deposit was paid
Hi, Might not be the right category but I found this as the closest one. I'm the seller of 1kg silver on Facebook. Someone is willing to buy it and he said he will collect it in 10days and for that he paid £120 in advance. But in the meantime I've changed my mind and I let know the buyer that I wanna sell it somewhere else…
