It's 2:00 a.m. You want to bid on a pair of rare, pricey Bart Simpson flip flops in an auction that ends in four hours. But the seller has a feedback score of 96 percent and not many comments. Where do you go to ask whether this seller is worth a risk?
eBay offers help in several different formats, including a Learning Center just for newbies, a Help page, interactive help via live chat or email, a centralized Services page, a site map, discussion boards , and more. This chapter covers them all.
Note: What eBay doesn't have, to the disappointment of many, is a number for telephone support. Top-level PowerSellers and owners of eBay Stores get a phone support number, but that's it.
