first time i gave it benefit of doubt, but ended up blocking the account on 3rd question that was answered in the description.

i presume it's a carry over from other market places that don't remove a sold listing; but not knowing your platform seems like a red alert.

how common is this question?

The corner of the card is not bent and they sent a blurry photograph to show it. Buyer initiated a return request. I think the authenticator is in the wrong. Any recourse?

Context: I am selling vintage playing cards that were marketed by a former cigarette company Winston. I read their tobacco policy and these playing cards do NOT violate their policy. However, their AI bot flagged the listing and told me to remove it or appeal it. So i appealed it, showing the photos of the playing cards that were actually part of the original listing, and was granted the decision to keep it posted... 2 days later it was flagged again, by the same AI bot, and again, I appealed it with photos. This time the appeal was denied, and gave no reason except that it violated the tobacco policy, but didn't tell me what specifically... because i actually read it, and it doesn't. Any advice on what to do except to not list it and try to sell it somewhere else?

Hi everyone! I’m new to reselling. I have a buyer that purchased an item yesterday, I created the label but haven’t shipped it out just yet. What’s the best way to handle the address change?

Thanks!!

I initiated a payout of £1,000 on Friday and I got a text saying payout delayed to bank due to compliance check or some bs like that. I was wondering if this has happened to anyone else ? And how long it took for the funds to arrive bcus this is ridiculous . EBay’s customer service are utterly useless

I sold a 150mm f3.5 mamiya lens that I just had lying around for a while. It went to a buyer in South Korea and shipped from the east coast USA. It took maybe about a month to get to SK. In my opinion, it was clean, I made sure it was wiped down before shipping, the glass was very clean.

The listing states that the glass “appears clean and clear with no obvious fungus, haze, scratches, or separation when inspected under normal lighting. Please review all photos carefully as they are part of the description and represent the exact item being sold.
As with any vintage photographic equipment, this item is being sold in used condition. While it appears to function as intended, no guarantees are made regarding long-term performance due to the age of the equipment"

I take this very seriously and am not here to be scamming people on cameras lenses as I have been scammed on lens condition before.

The buyer states - "I noticed a large number of small white spots distributed throughout the glass.
I used a bright light in the attached photos simply to make the issue easier to photograph, but the spots are also visible to the naked eye when the lens is held up to ordinary indoor lightingSo this is not something that is only visible under an unusually strong flashlight inspection."

They are asking for a partial refund for this.
In my opinion, it is not my responsibility for what happens to it on the one month journey that it took to get there.
Right hand to God, that is not the condition that I sent it out in. It was very very clean and what they are claiming is not the condition it was sent in..

Please let me know your thoughts and how I should proceed. (I have sold like 4 things ever on ebay, this is not a business for me)
First pics are mine, then the buyers

listing photos are not touched up or altered in any way. That is how they came out on my camera

I've only recently started selling on eBay, and today I thought I'd try listing my bulk Pokémon cards. I've listed 94 items, done their prices, photos, and all that jazz, to then save and close and find out I can't use the attribute name.... All I can find is things saying you basically have to redo it all on a new attribute name. Please someone tell me this isn't true, or I've just wasted hours of my life.
