I used to sell a lot on eBay a long time ago. 15-20 years ago maybe. Recently I login into my account again trying to sell something, was rejected because I sell in excess of $250.

Then I’m told to call the local customer service at working hours. Of course I need to go to work, so I find some time to make a call. Instead of anyway to get a human to answer, I’m told to input a code from my phone. Which the code wouldn’t show on mobile of course, you have to use the desktop version. Hadn’t cared enough to make a call since.

eBay is a dying company. They don’t give a fuck to individual sellers anymore, they try to adapt to the Amazon model. Except their website is very difficult to use, different components don’t even work together.
