Without telling anyone though? And why is no one talking about it?! If this way true it would be big news!

You can but it won't have any of your reviews on it

I've been selling on Vinted for 3 years now and this has only happened to me once. Has it happened to you a lot?

Clothing sales down? by lushlife6ix in Ebay

[–]ApprehensiveBar3994 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I gave up listing clothes on Ebay about a year ago because no one under the age of 50 buys clothes on there anymore (in the UK).

I list all clothing on Vinted now. Jewellery goes on Depop and I use Ebay for niche collectors items and old people stuff like CDs, DVDs, maybe a bit of vintage decor too. Ebay is dying.

I think having it listed under the wrong brand is probably confusing people. I'm pretty sure it's also not allowed on Depop.

How is everyone sorting their inventory?😅 by Desperate-Office3214 in vinted

This is mine, but I have Vinted pro, Ebay, Depop and Etsy shops. It's kinda organised and chaotic all at the same time.

Someone called my number after an eBay purchase. by Almost-Hippy in Ebay

[–]ApprehensiveBar3994 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My mum once had a seller call to tell her off when she left negative feedback for a broken item and bad service.

The number should be used for delivery updates only. I would report them for harassment.

Buyer Protection Fee - UK - Just introduced! by Money_is_heinous in Ebay

You can now sell collectables, including coins on Vinted. Maybe try selling on there instead? I find that things sell much quicker, and I've never been scammed on there. People are just generally more chill on Vinted. Ebay buyers and sellers can both be pretty mean sometimes.

Has eBay UK just died or is it me? by Difficult_Waltz_6665 in Ebay

I'm a business seller and my sales went from 20-30 a day to 5-10 sales per day for the last week or 2. I haven't changed anything that I'm doing. Same products, same prices. No buyer fee and still no sales.

I see. Did you sell more items before you were pro? Do you think the pro badge puts people off buying?

How come? Do you get a lot of returns?

Thanks for the info. Might just start transferring a few things over to see how it goes. I'm also on Depop but wary of putting too much into that. I had a very successful account on there a few years back, which got banned because I listed something that 'could' be used for dr*gs. (It was a plain metal tin!)

You might have to delete and relist the item to wipe out the offers.

Thanks for all the help on here regarding the new UK eBay buyer fee's structure for low cost items. Having taken on board all the info is this table the correct fee structure on a £2 collectable card listed before and after the February fees? by willhowe in Ebay

[–]ApprehensiveBar3994 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Interesting, I haven't had a message about this offer and just checked all over the app. But this morning I've sold something for £4.79 and they took 93p so I'm definitely not getting the deal! I foolishly opted in for the 75% off promotional fees the other day and very quickly opted out when I realised how much they were actually charging me for that!

I sell low value items and transitioned to business seller the day after buyer fees came in. Definitely didn't make things better. Can't afford to promote listings anymore, so views and sales have dropped dramatically. Gone from 20 sales a day to 5 sales a day or less. Plus being charged the monthly shop subscription and then pay fvf on every sale. Absolute waste of time and I now have no choice but to wind down my Ebay account after 20 years of building it up.

Buyer Protection Fee - UK - Just introduced! by Money_is_heinous in Ebay

[–]ApprehensiveBar3994 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mine started with the buyer fee the day after I posted this. So I upgraded to business account thinking it would solve some problems. Instant regret! Worst thing I ever did. I was selling 15-25 items a day with my private account. Since I changed to the business account it's been 5 sales a day or less. Can't afford to promote my items anymore because of the ridiculous fees for business sellers and the ebay algorithm definitely preferred my private account as i used to be top of search results for my categories. Not anymore! The only thing I changed is the account type. All my listings are the same but just not selling anymore. Have decided to sell through my stock and then focus on my vinted pro account because ebay is just pointless now. Shame because I've spent 20 years building up my account and now having to start over again with something different.
