>great buyer protection
>metric buttload of items for sale

Well it is a business.
>buyers rarely leave feedback
That's in no way eBay's fault.
>can't filter search results by individual countries
You can filter it to your country, don't see why you'd want anything else.
>mobile app getting worse every patch
>not using the website
>>

Fuck off kike scum

>>56322978
This. Mobile version doesn't filter items by price range when I try to set it.
>>

Eat a dick, shitstain.

>>56323058
Why exactly am I repeatedly being called a jew? Is this just a general insult now? I suggest you work on insulting people because you're laughably bad at it.
>>
>>56322998
>Well it is a business.
It used to be lower, that + forced PayPal payment method and its associated fees really makes selling not worth it sometimes.
>That's in no way eBay's fault.
Lack of incentive to leave (positive) feedback.
>You can filter it to your country, don't see why you'd want anything else.
How about when I only want to buy items from Japan or Korea?
>not using the website
How about having the thing actually designed for mobile devices be good?
>>

Having an app for each individual website you browse is beyond retarded. You already have a browser and 9 times out of 10 the website's better than the app.

Mobile apps are supposed to offer a better experience on mobile devices, that's why they exist. And only a handful of websites are worth visiting multiple times a day, eBay being one of them.

>>56323252
>Mobile apps are supposed to offer a better experience on mobile devices
Yet they rarely do.
>>
>>56323252
This. Mobile apps are much more responsive and faster than websites.

Listen to some schloime you mad fuck.

ebay is alright for buyers but anyone that thinks it's a decent site has never had to use it as a seller

I've gotten fucked so many times by buyers and ebay won't do shit, just takes their 7.5% and tells you to fuck off
>>
>tfw a buyer tries feedback extortion
>>
>>56322863
bait and switch advertised products
>>
I use it as a last resort, had to buy a mpcie wireless card and an hdd bay.
>>
>>56324369
Fuck off
>>
>>56322848
It's alright for buyers, maybe less so for sellers, IDK.

Pro tip: make sure you disable the currency conversion in Paypal settings, otherwise they'll rip you off with their scam rates.


>muh mobile app
Why? Do you really need to buy shit while you're not at home?
>>
>>56324433
>Do you really need to buy shit while you're not at home?
Why arbitrarily restrict yourself to only being able to shop in certain places?
>>
>>56323110
>How about when I only want to buy items from Japan or Korea?

Then access the specific country websites.

Because using a phone for web browsing/shopping will always suck, no matter how good the app or mobile website is.
>>
>>56324466
I'm not that anon, but thanks! For whatever reason, I didn't realize this was a thing.
>>
>>56324524
Doesn't mean you can't do it.
>>
>>56324466
The Japanese one is for sellers only it looks like. And the problem with these sites is that they don't automatically filter out sellers that won't post to your country.
>>
>>56324433
Because getting up, turning on your PC and getting to eBay is slower than just picking up your phone and browsing instantly, from your bed for example. It's more convenient, and you don't have to be home to do it. The app is pretty good but lacks some options.
>>
>>56324696
Shipping locations aren't exactly indicative of where the seller can ship. Many times asking the seller if he can ship to a location not marked on the item can make him agree to ship to that location.
>>
>>56323652
More like 10% now.
>>
There are only 2 rules:

If you buy something, always use PayPal.
If you sell something, never use PayPal.
