Email Customer Support?

I was charged for an insertion fee when it was supposed to be free, I can't call to talk to ebay, during business hours, for privacy reasons. I can call after hours, but would like to take care of this really quickly by just letting them know via email.   I realize email was probably abused or too heavy for them to post widely their contact info, they want everybody to call now, but some of us can't use the phone, for privacy reasons.....this is just poor servicing to the sellers once... more…

Shipping increase

I purchased a lamp, and the shipping charge in the listing was $30.00. After paying, the seller sent me another PayPal invoice requesting an additional $9.00 for shipping. Is this standard practice? Every time I have sold on eBay, if the shipping costs more than what I quote, I pay the extra amount and go on. I paid the extra amount because I really wanted the lamp so I felt as if my hands were tied, and nine bucks isn't going to break me. more…
