AI descriptions on ebay
Has anyone tried the new AI generated descriptions when selling? I have been waiting for an opportunity to give it a go and was quite impressed. The information is mainly taken from the item specifics and possibly similar listing. They can be a bit 'wordy' but you have the opportunity to edit before listing. At least…

eBay postage delivery confirmation
Not something I do regularly but once in a while I sell a low cost item and I'm sure for some time I've been sending using standard 2nd class postage purchased through eBay and in eBay a delivery confirmation gets recorded (obviously no tracking) Either I'm dreaming or this has stopped working recently?

Paypal sided with scammer!? Left me negative!
Hi, absolutely atrocious behaviour from Paypal. background story, I sold a mobile phone via Facebook (fella paid on PayPal as goods and services), he was happy when he received the phone etc. 1 months into the transaction (1 day before his 30 day guarantee through PayPal), he filed a ‘unauthorised payment’ claim.

Theft of eBay parcel from front porch
Ordered a vintage cook book from eBay. Courier dumped it in the porch, instead of putting it through the letterbox. Someone nicked it, despite the CCTV clearly visible and signposted. In future, I won't buy from eBay unless being sent by Royal Mail.

Time to report non-receipt of item
I’ve bought a fairly expensive item from a retailer. Currently they haven’t even marked it as despatched more than a week after purchase. Hopefully won’t be necessary, but I see I have 30 days from expected delivery date to claim item not delivered. I can’t actually see the estimated delivery date, is this because they…

Sell CDs on Ebay?
A relative, who collected CDs, there are at least 500 CDs, has died and his widow has asked me if I can sell them on Ebay for her because I have an Ebay account but I only use it to buy stuff. I have never sold anything on Ebay. Is it even worth while trying to sell them on Ebay as I thought all music is digital files…

Help to figure out estimate total cost of this item sent from the states.
Order price of the item is $110. I am not able to work out the postage price because they do not show it at checkout until after paying it seems. Going for memory though from a few years ago, as I have been looking at this for a long time on and off, it was maybe $50 so lets use that. How might I expect to pay total to get…

How to safely receive money selling on Facebook?
I'm selling something on Facebook that's for collection. Someone has messaged asking if they could pay by bank transfer now and collect tomorrow. They don't want to bring cash. Is there any way this could be a scam? Something about it feels dodgy.

Are (barcoded) Large 1st and Large 2nd class stamps any use?
I have a significant number of barcoded 1st and 2nd class large letter stamps which I've 'effectively' bought at historic prices . The idea was these could be an inflation proof method of sending parcels. However, Royal Mail charge far more to send a parcel using these stamps than buy the postage via the internet, so the…

Royal Mail Tracked 24/48 - are they delivered faster than 1st/2nd class?
So after all that has gone on in recent weeks/months/years, Royal Mail 1st and 2nd class mail is effectively broken where I live. I don't expect to receive anything within a week of it being sent to me, closer to two weeks seems typical. Are the Royal Mail Tracked 24/48 "courier" services any faster? Different staff, or a…

DPD/ASUS lost my item...
Bit of a long one, so buckle up. Back in June I bought an ASUS ROG Ally gaming handheld. It was £699. I bought it through ASUS via PayPal although it was supplied by a third party company. There is a common fault with the unit, so common in fact that ASUS had to issue a statement about it, and apply a firmware update to…

How do eBay and FbMarketplace car scams 'work'?
Both sites are sprinkled with them. Similar modus - a registered user for a few years, on Fb showing as being local, and listing a good number of vehicles at prices that are not only stupidly cheap, but stupidly stupid - such as £6,290. If I'm bored, I'll report them as 'scams', which is what they clearly are. I've once,…

Paying via Paypal on Ebay

If I use paypal to pay, does the seller end up paying more commission? Just don't want to upset any sellers by using paypal if they end up paying paypal…
