Recently eBay have implemented more changes. These one's in particular are affecting sellers all over the world. Sellers are losing their Top-Rated status over cancelled orders and customer error, leaving some of the best sellers wondering if there is anywhere else to sell their goods.


The changes we are calling for:

Managed Returns - Soon to be mandatory, we are asking that this become opt-in only


Defect changes: Currently, the only way for a customer to contact sellers about an item they bought is to open a case, causing sellers a defect on the sale. As many sellers are finding out, defects are hard if not impossible to have removed. We are asking that this become balanced, give sellers the option to resolve through inbox again, or at least have the defects removed if the case is resolved without any issue.


Here's a link to a thread showing just how silly some of these defects are and why this needs to be changed.

eBay needs to stop treating sellers like we are the problem. Customer error should not be my defect.

Please listen to us. We keep the platform running and you are pushing us all out with these new rules.

So tired of being penalized for things that are totally out of my control. Just let us talk to the buyers again.
