Buyers can see dispatch again.

One of the things I most disliked about the new ebay was that there was no icon for dispatch as a buyer. :confused:

But now there is a little box on the page, so if you are selling make sure you mark it as dispatched when you have. ;)

(Sorry, not the most exciting thread in the world, but it might be useful for someone- help stop annoyed buyers "you haven't even sent it yet" etc. :p)
This is my opinion. There are many others like it but this is mine

    I too noticed this the other day and am very pleased its back.
  • Does ebay tell the buyer when we tick dispatched? My buyers never seem to know until I tell them.

    There's no email or timing on it, but now there is a little box icon that appears on the buyers page once the seller has dispatched it. :)

    The date it was marked as despatched used to appear on the View Order details page- but I've not seen it there for ages now.

    If anyone uses Seller Manager Pro, it can be set up to auto-email the customer when the item is marked as depsatched, and it is copied into the customers ebay messsages.
