Worse market place to sell jewellery! Huge comisions 12.9% + shop subscription + vat, plus fixed price for every item sold. At the end of the day the buyers end up paying all this in one way or another. But the worst of all is that they are allowing fraudulent sellers on the platform and the legitimate bussines are not. If you want overpriced jewellery as buyer go to buy it on ebay or gold look alike.gold on silver.gold look alike...fake diamonds. And so on. As seller after many years allowing ebay to keep several tens of pounds in comisions and literally hundreds of calls to sort out issues, ironically created by ebay can not recommend it enough if you want to lose money and time!

Recommendation. Rather than buying jewellery in ebay simply look after the shop name as they do have their own website in google (at least the serious sellers) and contact them directly you still have the same right of returns and the security of buying from reputable jewellery but most probably you will get the item 20% cheaper. Horrible experience overall with ebay, agents that gives you instructions to do something then other " asking apologies for the recommendation of the colleagues "...plenty of " we understand your frustration" and at the end of the day just time waste. Long story short...ebay is good for private sellers to sell unwanted items before to take to skip, but not for reputable jewellers or any bussines.

Never NEVER become a professional seller on this platform, the commissions are huge ( paid more than £11.000) to deal with a bounch of monkey that are not able to coordinate between them-self,) suspended account, payments on hold. And so on because they are literally not able to speak between them, one operator confirms that you are able to do something another one blocks your account! Bravo! I open my own platform and get away of incompetent people! User hertheman
