I only have one word (actually they are two): ebay sucks!
Recently I have problems with my research, I have problems with sales, etc.
and they are not problems with other users but with the ebay platform.
Personally I'm really tired and I'm being led to the point of not selling anything anymore.
Is it a new policy to have only professional sellers?
Damn

Yeah there is a lot of nonsense in Ebay -_- ... Probably not only for sellers...
Requesting for a total works like 1/2 of the times ("The seller does not offer combined shipping discounts")
For some reason I don't get Emails anymore for my subscribed saved searches, which is horrible when what you search is extremely rare but still possible to find
Ebay thinks that the entire Switzerland is speaking German
I hate the fact that they have 500000 websites that cause problems with the cart and some other weird behavior (pffft, just have a single .com)
It happens often that many search results are hidden for no reason

And they dare taking generous commissions? (fortunately buyers don't pay any fee... for now)

It's strange that you guys are experiencing all of these problems with eBay, my partner sells things there all of the time and ALWAYS pays just 10%, or less and never has any of these sorts of problems...

Maybe eBay treats sellers differently if they aren't in the USA and if that's the case it's not fair and sucks for people all over the world...
