    Default Problems filling in description box

    Hi all, decided Feebay are now taking the mickey with their new fees so moving stuff across.

    My problem is when I copy descriptions and try to paste onto ebid, it flashes up the text but does not import and I'm left with a blank page

    any answers to what I am doing wrong?

    Try using keyboard shortcuts instead to cut/copy/paste - I copy and paste things from ebay turbo lister (which I still use as database to store all my listings) and it works fine. ie -

    ctrl c = copy, ctrl v = paste.

    PS. Completely agree with you over new ebay fees (I assume you mean the disgraceful postage tax) which is why I'm focusing on here now.

    Hi thanks for replies, I,ve found that by copying and pasting using HTML works fine. I use a Mac so don't know if that is the problem using the normal way.
    Yes they really are taking the mickey charging 10% on postage, they already do on Paypal ( which they own incidently)I'm now going to add "P & P now includes ebay,s surcharge fee on postage" to my listings on there. No wonder they are losing business hand over fist.
