OK, who's broken ebay- or have they hidden all my listings again?

Not a single solitary sale since 7am this morning.

Yep! Mine has been quiet today! Must be the sun!

Snap. Had a good March, but April isn't good. Could be the weather, or EBay is doing something dodgy

Really need some sales as I now have a low star for NAD to go with the three INRs, so my defect rate is up to 1.15%. I wouldn't mind, but all my items are scanned so the buyer can see exactly what they are getting.

April hasn't been a bad month for me, I've been selling at a better rate than last year, but today it all just stopped dead. I still haven't had a sale, so that's 13 hours now, something is wrong. I have had one stupidly low offer on an item which I refused outright.

I sold over 260 items in March, but this month I will be lucky to sell 100. No sales since early this morning, so agree something is wrong.

Oooh a sale :T

Yoiur active listings not showing in searches? I mentioned this a few weeks back, I bought an item and no matter what search term/phrase you used it did not show up in the search results.

The only way to find it was use the item number.

So cross, have received my first ever neutral after selling on ebay for around 10 years. Buyer bought children's sandals listed as size 2-3. Then 1 month after buying leaves neutral feedback saying shoes too big my daughter is a size 2. No contact before leaving this ridiculous feedback. And I am afraid I have left feedback that will probably get removed from their account - oh dear!
Arggghhhh! Grrrrrrr! Bl00dy numpty buyers!!!

I suspect there may be an issue with ebay/paypal. Last night I bought an item that was BIN with immediate payment required, paid for it and got an error message to say payment had not been taken and to try again. Did it again, got same message so gave up.

Checked this morning, the item is still in my basket with the usual warning that the item remains for sale until I actually pay for it, but it also shows in my purchased list as bought and paid for. The worrying bit though is that 2 payments with unique transaction numbers have gone through my paypal account. I've emailed the seller asking him to return one lot , but this is just a mess.

Arggh! I sold two pairs of earrings to one buyer - the sizes of beads of which were actually listed in the description. I've now received low DSRs for item description & got neutrals*

Please reassure me that I'm not the only one that gets frustrated with buyers blaming the seller when they don't get what they were expecting ?

* the same item has repeatedly sold without defect to other buyers

Two weeks agio I sold a high street brand item, clearly stated as High street ie 'WH Smith' , it was in item specifics and in the description as well. Got positive feedback that says 'cheeky seller selling WH Smith xx for profit- naughty'- was convinced that I'd get a defect, but nothing :money:

AS for ebay, they have obviously switched me back on again, I'm selling like crazy once more.

Is anyone else having problems getting on ebay this morning?
I keep getting the page flash up briefly, then it goes blank.
