E be gone

March 25, 2025 6:58pm CST
My final items are in my eBay business seller account at the moment. Once they are completed I will be closing my business account. I have a personal account which has almost no feedback, and it will be sad to see the business account close with around 1,000 feedbacks. The reason I am getting rid of the business account is that I am no longer trading as a business, and I don’t wish to register my national insurance details etc. I am just selling for fun on my personal account now. Hopefully the lower fees will also help.

I hope that things work out. My account has always been a personal one.

I changed to business a few months back but you cannot change it back to personal which is annoying

@Danielclark691 I find lots of things about the current eBay annoying.

@xstitcher yes I think a lot has changed and decisions are often strange

Thanks. I think building my feedback up will be a long process

Nothing stays the same forever. And hopefully closing the account will save you money.

It’s always tough letting go of something you’ve built, especially with all that feedback! But switching to selling for fun sounds like a good move less stress, lower fees, and still enjoying the process. Hope it all goes smoothly!
