Is anyone else receiving 20% less for each sale today? I've just been on with eBay for the past hour and they couldn't explain why (they eventually just hung up). I haven't signed up for any discount promotions etc. Absolute joke, I've been working today to just break even and eBay can't even tell me WTF is happening.

Dunno but I bought something on eBay today and got a ‘surprise’ 10% discount that I wasn’t aware of before paying.

Technical glitch?

I think you’ve accidentally ticked or agreed to an email promotion as they wouldn’t automatically enrol you. If you look into the fee structure what does it say?

But will you receive the original sale price ?
I buy work supplies from a company via their ebay shop and they're often discounted by 20% but the invoice has the full price, it's ebay paying the difference

I think this was some cockup made by Ebay and sellers based in N. Ireland.

They removed the VAT element from sales.

So anyone based in NI and selling on Ebay take a close look at your sales from around 7 days ago to now as the problem still hasnt been fixed.
