When you log in, it should pop up in a purple banner on the app.

I’ve had this happen 3 times now! It’s so frustrating! It has cost me at least one sale.

I just had this same thing happen again for the second time in the last few days. Weird thing is, I've accepted other offers since the last time it happened. I wonder if it's something buyers are doing on their end to cause it?

Just had ebay shipping glitch with error messages while trying to print a $67 shipping label. Needless to say my credit card was charged three times, wouldn't have even known had I not got a message from my credit card. A bit worrisome of how many times this might have happened in the past with label issues on ebay and I didn't notice.

griffan15 · 12-26-2023, 02:02 PM

Bulk labels giving anyone else issues? When I go to print, it's putting 2 labels on each page. That's a first for me and can't seem to solve it.

This is a new feature, no more unpaid orders but the item remains listed until somebody pays

RandAlThor · 12-26-2023, 03:24 PM

FYI, on the phone talking to eBay right now. Looks like I'm being charged listing fees for items that have already been listed on my eBay account. And I noticed that my free monthly listing are decreasing even without me listing any new items for sale. Apparently there is a glitch with the system I'm being told. All I have are BIN listings. Being told this issue should be fixed in 24-48 hours.

jamcas997 · 12-26-2023, 06:06 PM

Last 3 days are by far best 3 days this quarter and weekly total should crush all other weeks. Yesterday put me even with last months sales total and today shot me up 8% past last month.

Are you sure it is not from listing renewals? If an item is listed for 30 days and doesn't sell, it gets relisted for another 30 and counts against your listing total.

I’ve never had that happen before, I have over 1000 listings, which means if nothing sells it gets relisted and counts against my 250 free listings a month?

Similar here. Not quite to the level described here, but the 24th-27th have been much stronger sales wise than expected. Especially the 24th and 25th.

I wonder if a bunch of people got eBay gift cards as presents?

Ya 24, 25 and 26 were great. I guess today was a back to work or travel day. One sale for $2.

Zero sales today as of yet.

Bosoxfan5990 · 12-27-2023, 09:53 PM

11 cards sold for ~$158 net between 12/24-today. Very sold wrap up to the month so far.

thenightman · 12-28-2023, 02:01 AM

I've been on vacation since the 22nd. Sold 8 cards, grossed $175.

You sure that’s still true? My auto-renewals haven’t counted against my monthly totals for at least the past couple of years.

Raleigh504 · 12-28-2023, 06:07 AM

The 24/25th was pretty good to me, and my sales now are getting closer to what they were in the beginning of the month.

I just added some of the PSA order to my store: 10 CJ Stroud rookies (Green, Yellow, Red & Red/Green). 8/10 were PSA 10s and 2 are PSA 9s. I listed all the 9s and then 1 each of the 10s with an additional 10 going as an auction. With him probably coming back this weekend, they all should have more eyes/action on it. They are priced a little aggressive but not setting the bar for the price.

Along with them I added some retired baseball PSA too. Waiting on the Kershaw/Sherzer/Freeman ones until probably February to maximize value. I will have to wait to list my Burrow until the summer with his injury. Of course it was a /199 RC card PSA 10 and got hurt after I sent it in. I will just hold and sell it during the summer ramp up when I am at a show.

Are you talking about free listings or listing limits?

They always count against your listing limits. However when they come off unsold they also fall off your listing limits so essentially it's a 1 for 1 trade. The renewals also count against your free listings per month

Yes it typically counts against your free listings when items get relisted.

Bosoxfan5990 · 12-28-2023, 08:04 AM

Hoping for a strong few days to close out the year here!

shrevecity · 12-28-2023, 08:04 AM

Christmas was good Tuesday and Wednesday were OK. Already near 75 today.

If you have a Basic Store, you have 10,000 additional fixed priced listings and thats been in place for years.

beauspencer · 12-28-2023, 10:12 AM

Dec 21-25 sales were below average for my store. 26th and 27th were above average.

My volume for December to date is DOWN 20%...but my net sales are UP 20% compared to same time frame in November. I expect both volume and net sales to increase in January (I'm heavily skewed baseball).
