FAQ
- Can an eBay seller account be included in the sale?Do not assume it can. eBay states that accounts, usernames and feedback cannot be transferred without consent and that selling an account is not allowed; confirm the transaction structure and written platform position before assigning value to the account.
- Which eBay performance data should I examine?Review seller level, defect rate, late dispatch, tracking, cancellations, returns, cases and feedback over multiple evaluation periods. Inspect current policy warnings and selling limits, because recent headline sales may mask restrictions or service problems.
- How can I calculate profit on eBay listings?Rebuild contribution by SKU after item cost, eBay fees, promoted listings, postage, packaging, returns and refunds. Reconcile orders and payouts to bank receipts, separating multi-buy discounts, VAT and reimbursements from genuine product margin.
- How should stock for an eBay business be checked?Perform a physical count by SKU, location and condition, matching quantities to active listings and purchase records. Deduct damaged, returned, obsolete and duplicated items, and identify stock pledged, financed, consigned or unavailable for immediate dispatch.
- What listing and intellectual-property risks matter on eBay?Verify rights to photographs, descriptions, trademarks and branded products, plus evidence of authenticity and product compliance. Review removals, rights-owner complaints and restricted-item warnings, identifying listings whose sales could disappear once supplier permission or content access ends.
- Which open eBay liabilities belong in the completion accounts?Reconcile pending payouts, reserves, refunds, return requests, chargebacks, cases and postage claims at the agreed cut-off. Allocate pre-completion orders and tax correctly, retaining enough consideration for liabilities that surface after customers receive their goods.
