  • MRS.MOMMYY

    fees and feedback are silly- buy and sell- they need to get rid of the crappy con artists on there and nonbuyers and schill bidders

    I have bought and sold on eBay and all my experience has been good to great. It’s all about communication. Most people are honest and thankfull as both buyer or seller. Fee and policy changes are to be expected just like taxes and goverment regulation for brick and mortar business’ change.

    I have bought and sold a few items on ebay. My experiences have been mostly good, except for a couple buyers who never paid me and then canceled their ebay accounts. Why bid if you don’t want the item??? Very frustrating.

  • Trish

    I’ve sold on ebay and I found it nerve racking, I’ve had a smart alecky young woman get down right insulting when a pair of slightly worn pants wouldn’t fit her and some of the dumb questions people ask. My mother wants me to sell some of her stuff but I am apprehensive because of these bad experience.

    a bummer

  • Joanna Smith
    Oct 29, 2008 at 9:38 am

    From a Buyer’s perspective I think Ebay is fantastic! I have purchased so many items and paid a fraction of the cost of what I would pay had I purchased it from a retailer or other online source. But, from a Seller’s perspective I have seen over the years the advantages just dwindle away. I call it Feebay because every time a Seller clicks their mouse they are charged a fee. There is no Seller protection either for Buyer’s who are fraudulent! I would love to use Ebay as a Seller but right now I strictly purchase on ebay and love it! I would love to win this tutorial set for my mother who is dying to learn all about Ebay, how to buy and sell and I don’t have the time or patience to teach her myself! Thank you for offering this terrific Ebay giveaway!

    My E-bay experience has been a little difficult, as I am blind and use screen reading software to access the internet, however I would enjoy learning how to better access it.

  • Angela J
    Oct 29, 2008 at 1:18 pm

    I don’t like the fees that keep going up, plus the fact they have abandoned their “roots” and are catering to the super sellers.

  • karissa
    Oct 29, 2008 at 4:24 pm

    My experience has been mostly good but I have had a couple “nutso’s” lately. I sell there and they have just been trying to get stuff for free. Or the ones that ask questions that are in the listing, like how much is the shipping to send this to Timbucktoo? when it clearly states US only. Overall, I love Ebay. I really do. Great contest, these tutorials sound great too!

  • Chi
    Oct 30, 2008 at 2:38 pm

    eBay is horrible these days :) As a seller, you deal with nothing but fraudulent buyers who scam the system to get free stuff. Sellers are paying a huge price and have no recourse in eBay’s new, no negative feedback for buyers, system :)
