“SELLER BEWARE !!!!!!!! I currently have over $1,000 sitting in EBAY'S account and they will not release these funds, spoke to numerous agents about this and all they keep saying is the account has restrictions which is not correct as EBAY have already paid me out on other items, so whats going on!!???? I am totally sick of this,”

“Recently eBay asked me to send Bank Statement and Govt. Issued ID for verification purpose. I usually don't sell professionally but sometimes its just some home stuff i sell on eBay. After I sent my documents eBay sent me micro deposits into my bank account to complete verification and on the same day i got message that your eBay account is suspended indefinite time , you won't be able to buy or sell or not be able to create new account ever. First place why eBay should ask for document verification and collecting data just for no reason ? I did not even sell single item since last year. Second , Why would you treat long registered member as criminal all of a sudden without providing any details on what happened ? They ignore you even if you call or chat with them and ask for simple reason. I am registered with eBay since 5 years , never had any due payments. Third , Its not like we are renting your place and as landlord you ask for my personal details ? This happened to almost lots of sellers/buyers recently. So Beware !! I am not recommending eBay at all for selling purpose. I wish i could give negative ratings.”

“Ebay is nothing more than another corporate greed behemoth, making and changing rules to suit their endless greed. Dishonest, zero ethics or morals is the order of the day, and their mindless minions (CSR) are all on board. Do yourself a huge favor and entrust them with NOTHING you aren't comfortable losing. The single abiding interest this company has is in creating wealth for itself and its shareholders, not YOU.”

“Seller misled pricing I ordered a product from aggielily, put in my info and paid by credit card. After receiving the confirmation I received an email from the seller stating she made an error on the price and would have to re-bill me. Price went from the 20.00 I paid to 125.00. I replied to not re-bill me and that I expected to receive the items at the advertised price. My order was cancelled "by the buyer" which was not true. No help from eBay mgmt either. My first and last experience with them Edit”

“Please do not sell or use ebay for anything!! They hold your money. They ask you to send documents and then still hold your money. I use to have a great sell platform on eBay and now it has gone to hell!! You can not get a person on the phone that speaks English!! Ebay is the worst and please listen to all the reviews telling you the same as me!! I have been selling for over 10 years and the last 2 years they have held my money so long I no longer sell with them. I am still waiting on my funds to be took off hold where I sold and shipped things 5 months ago!!!”

“I've used ebay for 12 years and this is the first problem I've had. I cannot believe how bad their customer service is for sellers. A buyer wanted to return an item, which is fine. However, instead of sending back the very expensive Hugo Boss laptop case that I sold him, he sent back a cheap HP laptop case. eBay refunded the buyer without me agreeing and when I appealed the decision they told me that I wasn't eligible for a refund because I don't use eBay enough. Absolutely furious”

“I recently sold a secondhand Camera on eBay for $2050 plus $20 postage. However eBay no longer users PayPal for payments and eBay now handle this themselves. In due course eBay transferred $1787.92 short by some $282.08 off the sale price. They had taken GST (this was new I never had GST removed for secondhand items prior ?) When packing the camera for postage it was dropped from a table causing damage and it would no longer turn on. I then contacted the buyer to inform him of this and further offered a refund. When I looked for a refund method on eBay I could not find one unlike Paypal where there is a refund button. So I told buyer to request a goods return even though he had not received the goods as this would be quicker. This he did but eBay took the full amount of $2070 and not $1787.92 as paid to me. When I contacted eBay via chat mode, It seems you can’t just ring and speak with someone as I looked everywhere for a phone number with no luck. I was informed that the $282.08 would be returned to me in 60 to 72 days ??? Further eBay was closing my account without appeal, due to activity that is dangerous to the eBay community??? I asked what I had done to cause this action and I was promptly told that they were unable to tell me why and I cannot appeal their decision. I have been selling on eBay for 17 years and I have hundreds of positive feedbacks from 100’s of happy buyers and no negative feedbacks. So I am at a loss to no why and I cannot appeal… if I have unwittingly done something wrong I’d like to know, wouldn't anyone? It turns out that the damage to camera was easily fixed, the battery had shaken loose… so I will be selling it elsewhere, anywhere but eBay.”

“Be very careful. EBay finds a way to withhold money, They’ll drag out refunds for over a month. They’ll hang onto larger amounts of money for ‘security’ reasons. They’ll add tax to items which aren’t taxable. I’m using marketplace due to pending funds (my money) and pending refunds (my money)”

“eBay is getting ridiculous. They end listings and ban you for 10 days for things that can be bought in a shop. Looking for a new place to sell. eBay used to be good to sell on. It's got too big for its boots now. They forget it's people like us put it where it is now”

“After 25 years in business these guys still havent worked out how to send a tax invoice with a purchase. Further more when contacting the seller after delivery to request an invoice a message containing your email address cant be sent. So a purchaser must log in, request a receipt. wait for a response from the seller asking for an email address, then provide an email address then wait for an invoice to be sent. HOW EMBARRASSING and how does a company in 2022 actually exist with such a difficult process for a simple request. I have instructed all of my businesses and clients not to purchase via Ebay.”

“I’ve ended all my remaining listings and will sell elsewhere from now on! Ebay want to hold seller’s money for however long they like even if you’ve set your payout to daily. They expect you to pay for postage costs out of your own pocket whilst keeping your eBay earnings, on top of that, charge you extortionate fees and what you’re left with is half of what you sold your item for if you’re lucky enough to even receive it! It is not my first time or first few times selling on this account so I don’t understand the lies they keep telling! They claim they hold funds if you haven’t had a sale for 90 days. Lies! Ebay’s downfall will be their own damn fault :)”

“I am so disgusted with ebay that I have started the account closure procedure. Absolutely crazy to keep selling on such a site. The commissions are very high and as a seller you have no protection. I leave aside all the cases of people who tried to scam me with the excuse of the object not received (when the tracking shows the opposite) or object not according to description. Scammers are everywhere: what is not acceptable is that ebay takes zero actions against scam attempts or verbal assaults, despite lots of evidence are provided. The straw that broke the camel's back was the case of an American, who bought a football shirt from me, and already the day after the shipment, started to send an avalanche of messages about the status of the shipment, becoming message after message violent and intimidating. At some point I stopped responding and in response I received negative feedback (with insane language even there) basically 2 days after I sold the item. I reported the customer to ebay and asked them to remove the negative feedback and take action against this user. They did nothing. I saw on the page of this person (who is also a seller) two negative feedbacks within a week (one also complained about the aggressive / intimidating tone of the user). So this is repetitive, not a single episode. Ebay will definitely do something I thought. Result? After a week the person in question no longer had negative feedback and was with 100% positive feedback. Ridiculous... Ebay has no standards, as long as you pay your commissions you can be the worst scammer, you won't suffer any consequences. I am attaching photos with some nice free offenses and threats received and for which ebay has not done (and will not do) anything”
