“Total rubbish.incoherent low paid staff in the Philippines or some other low pay country.they have no one to one contact to resolve problems. They act like an Orwellian nightmare. They are now expensive to deal with. Childishly they cut you off or close your account for the slightest reason. Foolish decisions by faceless people cannot see the damage that they do to their own bank balance. We are bringing eBay to the attention of the British government to ensure that their profit levels are taxed. eBay no thanks”

“Ebay are one big scam . Sold some trainers they said they did not match the description and had more ware than i said . This is not possible as the trainers have never been worn out side . What you seen in the pic you got the buyer should be given a choice if they would still like to recieve the trainers . Ebay wont let me message the buyer in any way and are now charging me nearly £25 pound and i have also paid £13 to get the trainers to the authenticator .. Absolute farss ill not be using ebay again”

“Extremely poor customer service. Account was banned and multiple agents are unable to provide me with any information on this at all. It's impossible to talk to a human except through a chat window, and they hang up on you as soon as you ask a question. I've only been polite and patient with them, but it seems like I'm at a dead end.”

“I cannot recommend Ebay to sell as a small seller. The fees do not make it worth your time. If there are any problems as a seller or buyer, Ebay does not offer any help or problem solving. After selling many items, the problems out weighed the value”

“Many have mentioned the new payout system called "managed payments" in the reviews. I cant express how frustrating it was to have them HOLD my funds on 1st 40 sales while they "evaluate my performance" I been on eBay since 2003 or 2005 and they told me the reason was so "buyers could gain confidence", if you have auctions end on Friday, money won't hit your bank till Tuesday at the earliest, when I ended auctions on Wednesday, I still wasn't getting MY money till following week. Ebay got paid, item delivered and I'm paying bills with credit cards. Very wrong! Ebay has lots of policies that hurt and honestly scare seller's, when you ask specific questions they read policy instead of answering. I'm a new seller, I had plans to be full time but I can't trust ebay representatives. Some examples are ebay screening system to get a supervisor has me on hold going back and forth explain why I need supervisor, they put or transfer calls to teammates that aren't supervisors, this leads to more calls and days consumed with no resolve, then reps make comments like "thanks for calling again" It's impossible to know what to expect, ebay has told me a few times to "act professional". In 2 separate calls I was told 1st that I was lied to, a second rep told me that ebay wasn't going to help. Professionalism? I don't think the problems that exist on ebay are necessarily the buyers or sellers fault, the problem is the note taking amongst ebay employees that not only decide your dispute but this note taking system affects how your call experience will be. They refuse to stop unwanted communications, when the communications are threatening and vengeful. Notes on the account that favor the buyer are somehow lost while the notes to waste our time are being mentioned or referred to during call. They don't listen. They're aggressive, extremely combative and they "won't help" My 1st call as a seller turned into about 3 hours over 2 days with no resolve. There's never resolution, they actually blame us for calling, they make things worse then blame you”

“Ebay, along with shoppers, deals with money fraud from merchants. Does not solve problems. The product is even sent to the customer with a tracking number, it gets stuck in the customs of the respective country. Ebay simply refunds the buyer.”

“eBay has changed their system. We sell clothes... they now get 15% of every order under $2000, which is 95% of the orders. On top of that they now essentially force the average user into using their third party payment system like Payoneer. Payoneer then charges an additional $10+ per transfer. So... $300 order, ebay takes $45 for basically doing nothing on every order. Then Payoneer takes another $10-15 when you transfer money into an account you can actually use the funds for running the business. That leaves you with $240. Minus actual shipping and COGS, the margins are negligible. IE... not really worth the cost of doing business on their platform. Why I am I working for essentially free, just to make eBay and Payoneer rich? eBay has become one of the THE WORST online platforms around. And with these gratuitous fees of a greedy company I think we will retire our business from them altogether. There are better options now. eBay has become a greedy company and a rip off and they need to go the way of the dinosaur.”

“I purchased a new speedometer for my Mini Cooper for the total cost of 540.00 after shipping and handling. When the package didn’t arrive and the seller refused to issue a refund, Ebay refused to stand by their claim and provided zero help. I deleted my account, and recommend others do the same. If not stick with tiny BS purchases, Ebay is not fit to handle anything greater.”

“Sold a very rare comic finished sale with buyer, received a stellar review, eBay took 12.25 percent , then refused to pay me for a month , still haven’t received payment even after the sale was completed totally disgusted with customer support. Every answer is a circle, will not sell a high value item again! Their excuse was it’s to protect buyer. But the buyer was happy and reviewed and positive feedback was in three days. They’re banking on the sellers money. There should be a review of what interest they collect daily in holds!”

“We are a genuine company based in Spain. Even though we have provided all the formally required documents, our professional seller account got suspended with no reason. They did not even bother to give us a detailed explanation! What is this? Are we living in an era of dictatorship?”

“I ordered a product two and a half months ago. It didn't show up on the date it was supposed to so I waited a few more days before contacting ebay (it says it shipped the day after I placed the order) once I heard from ebay they told me to wait a week from the day I sent an email so they could "contact the seller". Well it's been 10 days since and still nothing. I went to look at the user their name is ShopUp do NOT use and I can't find their profile to leave a review. On top of that, I got a notification saying that the item was either removed or not in stock soooooo....where ya at ebay? Give me my money back.”

“Awful! What has happened to ebay? Changed their system so if you sell you can't receive a payment via PayPal. So now I'm stuck unable to get the £800 I sold an item for until they send micro transactions to my bank. Customer service are awful, they just repeat the same things to you over and over, that's if you can figure out how to find them. EBay prefer to send you through a maze of "answers to questions" rather than give you an actual person. And then 12% of the selling fee!!! I get that it's their platform but honestly, that figure is ridiculous! Greed is what that is. Last time I ever sell anything on eBay, that's for sure!”
