Помогите пожалуйста ситуация такая:
Я купил у продавца навигатор, получил его всё было нормально по началу я ему поставил положительный отзыв. Прошло недели 2 и на экране по непонятным причинам всё исчезло и экран стал белым, в остальном навигатор работает, звуки издаёт Я понес его в ремонт мне сказали что дело в шлейфе который идет к экрану и что у нас такой не найти.
Я сразу написал продавцу, после небольшой переписки он согласился вернуть мне деньги за навигатор но при условии что я ему навигатор высылаю за свой счет, он мне возместит только 6$, тогда как отправка ему данного навигатора обходиться в 24$.
Я с ним немного поспорил, прошло несколько дней я написал ему сообщение он на него не ответил до сих пор (с того времени как я написал ему сообщение прошло 7 дней) Недождавшись ответа я решил написать ему ещё но

ебэй

выдаёт ошибку:
The service is temporarily unavailable. Please try again in a few minutes.
Я пробовал несколько дней писать, но без успешно.

Подскажите пожалуйста что в данном случае делать, можно как-нибудь написать в PayPal, насколько я знаю диспут уже не открыть, но можно ли как нибудь пожаловаться на продавца, чтобы с ним разобрались ?
Или что мне посоветуете делать ?

Заранее спасибо

у меня такая-же беда — который день не могу отослать письмецо продавцу
вот такая радость

и такая

в зависимости как пытаюсь ему написать — если отвечаю ему на его письмо — то второй вариант, если кликаю на его имя и выбираю контакт селлер — то первый вариант, браузер менял, другим продавцам письма уходят….

Что то не пойму Вас вы с ним раньше связывались или еще нет?
Я спокойно могу ему написать.

переписывались нормально, как и с остальными
но пару дней назад хотел написать ему — узнать если получил лампу обратно и вот такая ошибка выскакивает
повторяю, писать другим продавцам — могу нормально… может есть какой «чёрный список» в который он меня добавил и не хочет получать писем от меня?

может есть какой «чёрный список» в который он меня добавил

Такой точно есть.
Что прислал плохую лампочку а то тоже собираюсь у него прикупить лампу на свой Панас 1000.

пробовал с разный ибэев — английского, французского, даже китайского, но после нажатия кнопки ОТВЕТИТЬ в моих собщениях — меня перекидывало на

ebay.com

а там выскакивала ошибка

открыл ДРУГОЙ лот этого продавца — написал ему письмецо и с первого раза оно ушло

вывод (сугубо мой ИМХО) —

ибэй

блокирует возможность переговоров на тех лотах у который истёк срок действия… скорее всего во избежание сговора между сторонами ( что-бы не покупали-продавали мимо ибэя)[/img]

Что прислал плохую лампочку а то тоже собираюсь у него прикупить лампу на свой Панас 1000.

в начале работала — но после 3 недель, и после позитива отошёл центральный электрод, или как он там называется
посмотри на фото
1
2
притом лампа встала мне в более ста долларов — а потом он снизил цену…
написал ему — он давал якобы гарантию 3 месяца — прод предложил отправить ему лампу обратно и он обменяет или вернёт деньги
уже с 10 июля посылка у него на почте и не идёт её получать — вот и всё кино…

Столкнулся с такой проблемой. Есть подозрение что прошло слишком много времени с момента продажи этого лота. Сегодня ровно 60 дней с момента покупки, и появилась такая же проблема, хотя ещё вчера я мог писать продавцу под этим лотом!
Но этому же продавцу смог написать под другим лотом, срок с момента покупки 14 дней.

ps: По условиям возврата

ебей

, продавец обязан оплачивать возврат в случаях если товар с браком, товар не соответствует и тд. Чтобы

мог гарантировать возврат денег, есть определенный срок, до истечения которого надо открыть диспут. Все подробности читайте в правилах

If your request encounters problems during processing, the eBay servers can respond with either an error or warning condition. While processing might continue if a warning is encountered, the processing stops when errors are encountered.

API error and warning responses

There are three different types of response components that you can receive after you send a request. Depending on what happens during the request processing, you can receive either errors or warnings, as follows:

There is a warnings component and no errors component. This happens when no error occurred during processing, but one or more warnings occurred.
There is an errors component and no warnings component. This happens when one or more errors occurred during processing. While warnings may also have occurred during processing, they are not included in any response with an error component.
There is neither an errors or warnings component. This happens when no warnings and no errors occurred during processing.

Returned error and warning objects are the same type (ErrorData) and have the same fields.

Note that some ErrorData fields take custom types, as defined here:

ErrorCategory: Takes one of three values (Request, Business, or Application) to indicate the type of problem encountered.
ErrorParameter: Has two required fields, both strings, named name and value.

The following sections show typical responses for each of the three possibilities. The table in the Error and warning response field values section below lists all fields that could be included in a response when either errors or warnings occurred during request processing.

A warning response

The following example shows a warnings response component with no errors component:

 {
    "warnings": [
      {
        "errorId": long,
        "domain": "string",
        "subDomain": "string",
        "category": "ErrorCategory",
        "message": "string", 
        "longMessage": "string",
        "inputRefIds": ["string"],
        "outputRefIds": ["string"],
        "parameters": [ErrorParameter]
      }
    ],
    "resource": "Hello, eBay followers!"
  }

Note that because warnings do not stop processing, the HTTP status code returns as 200.

An error response

Here is an errors response component with no warnings component:

  {
    "errors": [
      {
        "errorId": long,
        "domain": "string",
        "subDomain": "string",
        "category": "ErrorCategory",
        "message": "string", 
        "longMessage": "string",
        "inputRefIds": ["string"],
        "outputRefIds": ["string"],
        "parameters": [ErrorParameter]
      }
    ]
  }

A response without errors or warnings

And finally, here’s a response without either an errors or warnings component:

  HTTP/1.1 200 OK

  {
    "resource": "Hello, eBay follower!!"
  }

Error and warning response field values

The following table describes the fields that can be returned in an errors or warnings container:

API error and warning fields

Field	Type	Description
errorData	object	The `errors` or `warnings` object type.
errorData.category	ErrorCategory	The category type for this error or warning. It takes an `ErrorCategory` object which can have one of three values: `APPLICATION`: Indicates an exception or error occurred in the application code or at runtime. Examples include catching an exception in a service’s business logic, system failures, or request errors from a dependency. `BUSINESS`: Used when your service or a dependent service refused to continue processing on the resource because of a business rule violation such as «Seller does not ship item to Antarctica» or «Buyer ineligible to purchase an alcoholic item». Business errors are not syntactical input errors. `REQUEST`: Used when there is anything wrong with the request, such as; authentication, syntactical errors, rate limiting or missing headers, bad HTTP header values, and so on.
errorData.domain	string	Name of the domain containing the service or application.
errorData.errorId	number (long)	A positive integer that uniquely identifies the specific error condition that occurred. Your application can use error codes as identifiers in your customized error-handling algorithms.
errorData.inputRefIds	string	Identifies specific request elements associated with the error, if any. `inputRefId`‘s response is format specific. For JSON, use JSONPath notation.
errorData.longMessage	string	An expanded version of `message` that should be around 100-200 characters long, but is not required to be such.
errorData.message	string	An end user and app developer friendly device agnostic message. It explains what the error or warning is, and how to fix it (in a general sense). Its value is at most 50 characters long. If applicable, the value is localized in the end user’s requested locale.
errorData.outputRefIds	string	Identifies specific response elements associated with the error, if any. Path format is the same as `inputRefId`.
errorData.parameters	ErrorParameter	This optional complex field type contains a list of one or more context-specific `ErrorParameter` objects, with each item in the list entry being a parameter (or input field name) that caused an error condition. Each `ErrorPrameter` objects consist of two fields, a `name` and a `value`.
errorData.parameters.name	string	This is the name of the parameter/field for which the error was thrown.
errorData.parameters.value	string	This is the value of the parameter/field for which the error was thrown.
errorData.subDomain	string	Name of the domain’s subsystem or subdivision. For example, `checkout` is a subdomain in the `buying` domain.

An example error response

The following error shows a sample response if there is a problem with one of the parameters passed into the call:

 {
  "errors": [
    {
      "errorId": 15008,
      "domain": "API_ORDER",
      "category": "REQUEST",
      "message": "Invalid Field : itemId.",
      "inputRefIds": [
        "$.lineItemInputs[0].itemId"
      ],
      "parameters": [
        {
          "name": "itemId",
          "value": "2200077988|0"
        }
      ]
    }
  ]
}

Common errors

When you make a call to an eBay API, you can get a response that contains errors or warnings as described above. However, each API can also return common errors, which are error conditions that can occur while processing a call to any API. Common errors stop processing and they must be addressed before you can get a successful response from your call.

The common errors use the same error response structure that the individual interfaces use:

  {
    "errors": [
      {
        "errorId": long,
        "domain": "string",
        "subDomain": "string",
        "category": "ErrorCategory",
        "message": "string", 
        "longMessage": "string",
        "inputRefIds": ["string"],
        "outputRefIds": ["string"],
        "parameters": [ErrorParameter]
      }
    ]
  }

Below is a list of the most frequently encountered common errors:

Common error messages

Error ID	Error Category	Message	Long Message	Domain	HTTP Status Code
1001	REQUEST	Invalid access token	Invalid access token. Check the value of the Authorization HTTP request header.	OAuth	401

Policies Errors

Variation Errors

Workarounds

You have not opted into Business Policies. To continue using this feature please opt-in using the following link.

Reason: You did not opt-in to eBay’s business policy and that’s why eBay cannot set up your policies.

Workaround: Please visit this link http://www.bizpolicy.ebay.com/businesspolicy/policyoptin, log in to your eBay account, and opt-in eBay business policies. After you’ve done so, you can create your payment, shipping, and return policy on eBay.

eBay Error: The item can not be listed or modified due to violation of the eBay selling policy or a restriction on your eBay account. Please read the article for more information and solutions.

Reason: This is a generic eBay error caused by either violation of the eBay selling policy or a restriction on your eBay account. For example, the error may return if you use email or social media links in a title or description. This error can also occur if your item is in violation of legislation in some countries.
Other reasons for this error:

The title of description of the listing contains restricted keywords, phone numbers or email addresses.
The category selected not match to the product. The workaround is to try another category.
Wrong policy selected. This is a common reason. To workaround it — try changing to other return or payment or shipping policy.

⚠️ You’ve provided an invalid return policy.

Reason: You have entered an invalid return policy in the description of the listing, meaning, in your template.
Workaround: make sure you are using a valid return policy for the item. Different eBay markets (ebay.com/ebay.co,uk etc) might have different requirements and legal obligations. If you’re not sure, look for help on eBay or from other sellers.

⚠️ In order to maintain a safe trading environment, sellers may only offer a maximum of 100 items per listing.

Reason: To ensure a safe buying and selling experience for the buyers on eBay, eBay might restrict the number of units offered per listing.
Workaround: Reduce the available quantity for this listing and then try uploading it again.

⚠️ The email address you entered isn’t linked to a PayPal account. If you don’t have a PayPal account, you’ll need to set one up with this email address so that buyers can pay you

Reason: eBay did not verify your PayPal account.
Workaround: Log in to your PayPal account, click on the link on your confirmation email to verify your PayPal account with a credit card. Then go to your eBay account to set up PayPal as the automatic payment method for eBay payments.

⚠️Before you can list this item we need some additional information to create a seller’s account.

⚠️ Listing cannot be revised because you have reached the maximum number of revisions allowed.

Reason: eBay has a limitation for how many times you can revise a single listing and you have exceeded this limit.
Workaround: There’s nothing you can do — you will not be able to apply the change you wanted for this listing.

⚠️ Validation of the authentication token in API request failed

Reason: AutoDS’ authentication token has expired. Meaning, we no longer have permission to make changes to your listings. Note: only applies to API stores.
Workaround: Refresh your token. Click on the little pencil next to your store name-> Click on the 3 dots menu-> Renew Token. You will be directed to eBay to approve us as a third-party application again.

⚠️ Buyers love large photos that clearly show the item, so please upload high-resolution photos that are at least 500 pixels on the longest side.

Reason: eBay requires all images have a minimum of 500 pixels on the longest side. AutoDS will only upload 500-pixel images, this error will most likely pop up when you add your own image to the listings not matching with eBay’s requirements.
Workaround: Verify the pixel size of the main images of the listing and the images of your variations, edit to match if needed, then upload the images again.

⚠️ Listing titles are limited to [value] characters.
Reason: Your listing exceeds the maximum length of characters. This will only happen when you list directly on eBay as AutoDS will limit your title’s character to 80 as allowed by eBay.
Workaround: Ensure your listing title is not longer than the maximum length — 80 characters.

⚠️ Your listing cannot contain javascript («.cookie», «cookie(«, «replace(«, IFRAME, META, or includes), cookies or base herf

Reason: It seems you have used some improper codes in your listings. It can happen when you use your own HTML template.
Workaround: Make sure your item description does not contain the prohibited code listed in the error message.

⚠️ Variations Specifics and Item Specifics entered for a Multi-SKU item should be different

Reason: You have entered the same specifics for variation options and item specifics.
Workaround: You have the same values inserted for variation-specific options and the item specifics. eBay does not allow it. Please remove the identical specifics in your Item Specifics part if they already existed as specifics in the variation option.

⚠️ Variation Specifics provided does not match with the variation specifics of the variations on the item.

Reason: Please enter valid values that are consistent with the specifics of the variations.
Workaround: Make sure you are inserting valid values for all items and that these values are provided consistently for specifics across variations.

⚠️ A mixture of Self Hosted and EPS pictures are not allowed.
Reason: When there are multiple images for your listing and you upload them to the eBay Picture Services (EPS), eBay seems to get the image information corrupted — leaving some images uploaded to their servers and others not.
Workaround: Choose to use all EPS (eBay Picture Services) images for your item or all self-hosted images. Download all your images to your computer. Remove all your images for the listing, leaving only one image. Upload the listing with the one image remaining only. Once the listing has been successfully uploaded, add the remaining images you previously saved on your computer.

⚠️ You entered more pictures than allowed.
Reason: eBay allows only 12 images to be uploaded to a single listing.
Workaround: Please remove images to have a max of 12.

⚠️ Enter a full UK/US Postal Code/ Please enter a valid postal code error

Reason: You did not enter a postcode to your eBay Business Shipping Policy.
Workaround: Please visit this Help Article to learn how to fix it.

⚠️ Duplicate names in name value list in variation specifics container.

Reason: You did not give unique names to your variations.
Workaround: You need to check if you have values for multi-variation options or specifics that are the same but use different capitalizations such as «white» and «White» and «WHITE», as these eBay might see these as duplicates and thus, generate this error.

⚠️ XML Error Text: «nested exception is: org.xml.sax.SAXParseException: An invalid XML character (Unicode: 0x3) was found in the CDATA section

Reason: There’s probably a character that was copied from another source and it is not compatible with eBay’s system.
Workaround: Please check your listing’s description and header text and remove any special characters you can find and then try uploading your listing again.

⚠️ The shipping service is not available for this item location. Select a different service.

Reason: You have chosen the wrong location and/or shipping service for this item.
Workaround: Please select a different location or a different shipping service. You can read this article to learn how to make general shipping policies that work best for drop-shipping.

⚠️ You must accept the International Selling Agreement before you can list this item on a site other than where you registered or with international shipping options.

Reason: As a seller, you did not agree with eBay’s International Selling Agreement.
Workaround: You must do it as part of your seller account. Please visit the eBay link provided in the error message to accept these terms. If you decide not to accept these terms, you will be allowed to list only where your account is registered.

⚠️ This category does not support products with variations.

Reason: The selected category does not support products with variations.
Workaround: Please try choosing another category from the dropdown menu, or try listing the item without variations. You can check here which categories are supported with variations on eBay.

⚠️ This item cannot be accessed because the listing has been deleted or you are not the seller.

Reason: This listing has probably been deleted on eBay.

Workaround: In most cases, when an item is monitored on AutoDS and you get this error — it means it was ended on eBay directly. Check if the listing indeed was ended by eBay (you can also check your emails from eBay) and make sure to remove if from AutoDS as you will not be able to make any changes to a listing that ended and will need to remove it from the monitor.

⚠️ Missing required filed» Item Location»

Reason: Your eBay’s business policies do not have the »Item location» field, so you need to fill it this specific before you list the item.
Workaround: Go to this shipping policy on your eBay account, fill in the »Item Location» field, then apply this policy to the listings. We recommend working with a general shipping policy that does not require a location or have a specific carrier to it.

⚠️ Authorization token is hard expired. The user needs to generate a new token for this application.

Reason: AutoDS token as a 3rd party authorization app on eBay had expired.
Workaround: You need to refresh the token from the AutoDS settings page.

⚠️The category is not valid, select another category.

Reason: The category is not valid for use for this listing at the moment.
Workaround: Try selecting a different valid category for the item. This error can sometimes appear for eBay listings that were previously valid if eBay had made category changes and has not provided a clear mapping from the old category to a new category. You can read more about eBay’s categories here.

⚠️ It appears that eBay has not suggested a category for this product. You may be trying to upload motors/adult products or your token is invalid. You can try changing the product title or renewing the token. Learn more about the workarounds here.

Reason: There are certain categories (motors, adult products etc.) that are restricted on eBay or Your Token has expired and you need to re-new itWorkaround: See if the item belongs to a restricted category and try to add a category manually after changing the title. Or If you got the error for all items of a Bulk upload try to re-new your store’s token and re-upload

⚠️ Error (640): We noticed that you don’t have a payment method set up with your eBay account. As soon as you take care of this, you’ll be able to list more items.

Reason: Most likely, you need to set up a payment method on eBay — either via PayPal or a credit card so that eBay can charge seller fees.
Workaround:

Click on the following link to learn how to set up automatic payments on eBay and link your PayPal account. If you already have your PayPal account linked, please relink it via eBay as the PayPal authorizations to your eBay account might have been revoked and need renewal. After completing these tasks, try listing your items again.

Go to: eBay-> Account settings ->Seller Account (Or click here)

At the bottom of the page connect your Paypal

⚠️ Error (21916585): Duplicate custom variation label.
Reason: This error occurs when you modify the item’s variations via eBay instead of making changes via AutoDS. Now, when submitting data to eBay from AutoDS, there is conflicting information on both platforms.

Workaround: The best workaround for this problem is to end the listing and upload it again via AutoDS.

⚠️ Variation cannot be deleted during restricted revise.

Reason: Variation with a purchase history cannot be deleted.
Workaround: You’re probably trying to delete a variation from a multiple-variations listing with sales history. If you want this variation to be available again, set its quantity to 0 and disable the stock monitoring for it. If a product’s variation has no purchases, you should be able to delete it.

⚠️ This listing would cause you to exceed the number of items you can list. You can list up to x more items this month. Please consider reducing the quantity or request to list more: Link

Reason: You exceed the number of items that you can list according to your eBay’s limit
Workaround: Read this Help Article for a detailed explanation.

⚠️ If the original item was not listed as a Multi-SKU item, you cannot change it to be a Multi-SKU item during relist (or revise). You will need to create a new listing as a Multi-SKU item.

Reason: You can not change a single listing to a Multi-SKU listing when you’re trying to relist an item.
Workaround: List your multi-SKU (your multi-variations listing) item as a new item instead of relisting or revising an old non-multi-SKU item.

⚠️ No rate table has been created. Please create the rate table.

Reason: You did not set up a shipping rate table on eBay
Workaround: Check the shipping policy you have tried to list with and apply a shipping rate for it for different worldwide locations.

⚠️ This Listing is a duplicate of your item: [item (item number)]. Use multi-quantity fixed price listing to list these items.

Reason: The listing you are trying to list is a duplicate of another listing you have already published to your store.

Workaround: Make sure you are not uploading a duplicate listing. If you have already listed the item in question, then find the original listing and update the quantity instead.

⚠️ The tags [tag] is/are disabled as Variant.
Reason: You have used an invalid tag for this variant.
Workaround: The word you try using for the variant is reserved by eBay and can’t be used for your eBay listings. Choose a different attribute name to avoid the error.

⚠️ The duration [value] day(s) is not available for this listing type, or invalid for category [category name].

Reason: The duration that you selected is not valid for the listing or category.
Workaround: Check the duration you are using in the settings for the item is valid for the listing type or category.

⚠️ Only Single item can be sold in auction-style listings. Switch to FixedPrice format to sell multiple items.

Reason: You choose the wrong type of publication for this listing.
Workaround: If you are trying to sell more than one specific item, you need to list it using a fixed-price format instead of auction-style.

⚠️ Internal error to the application.

Reason: There is an eBay server error or network problem.
Workaround: The error is on eBay’s server-side, not an error with your listing. Try listing again later.

⚠️ Package weight exceeds 150lbs. Please switch to Freight shipping for large items over 150 lbs.

Reason: The weight of the package exceeds the limit of services you are offering in your shipping policy.
Workaround: Make sure your shipping policy/carrier allows the weight of the item. If not, The weight can be manually changed by editing the variant or you can change your shipping policy.

⚠️ Invalid value for [product identifier].

Reason: You have entered an invalid value: UPC, EAN……
Workaround: Make sure you’re using a valid value for product identifiers (UPC, EAN, ISBN), correct it, or try to use other UPC, EAN, ISBN. Note: these details are pulled directly from the source site listings except for a unique UPC which AutoDS fills in automatically on your listings.

⚠️ Error 21919188: It looks like you’ve reached the number of items you can list. You can list up to N items this month. Request to list more

Reason: This error message suggests that you have exceeded the listing limit you have on eBay. The limit is shared between all eBay sites. When you try to submit a listing via AutoDS, it can be rejected by eBay due to limitations.

Workaround: to resolve this error, you can either set quantities in stock to 1 in order to save limits or contact eBay customer support for further assistance regarding your limitations.

⚠️ Error 107: The category isn’t valid, select another category.

Reason: Sometimes eBay makes changes to the categories list. If the eBay category submitted for the item is invalid or no longer available, eBay will return this error.

Workaround: Here you can find the changes made to categories and see if any of those that you use have been changed. The only possible workaround for this problem is to select another category.

⚠️ Error (21919303): The item specific MPN is missing. Add MPN to this listing, enter a valid value, and then try again.

Workaround: In order to resolve this issue, you need to add MPN to your listing. You can do it in the Specifics section of your item. If your item has no MPN, simply put «Does Not Apply» in the field.

⚠️ Error (21916884): Condition is required for this category.

Reason: When you list an item in some eBay categories, you must specify its condition. Conditions differ by item category, please check this eBay documentation to find out more: Item conditions by category and Item Condition IDs and Names.

Workaround: AutoDS always uploads the ‘new’ condition as a default so you should not encounter this issue when uploading directly via AutoDS. If you still do, just specify the actual condition for each item. We convert this description to those required by a specific category on the corresponding eBay site.

⚠️ Error (10068): Email address cannot be used for PayPal payments at this time.

Reason: This error message is coming from eBay and it refers to the PayPal email address that you had set up on eBay. The error message implies that the PayPal account is either not in good standing, or needs to be reviewed.
Workaround: If you require immediate payment on your payment policy, your PayPal account should be in good standing. However, if there is an issue with your PayPal account then immediate payment will not be allowed until the issue is resolved. In order to resolve this issue, please first check the Payment Policy on eBay and confirm that the PayPal email address was entered correctly (without misspelling).

If your email address is correct, go to the PayPal website, log in, check the status of your account, and resolve any issues there.

Once resolved, try listing your items in AutoDS again.

⚠️ Error (121): You will be unable to complete this request until payment is made or a credit card is put on file for automatic monthly billing.
