Gift Aid: boost the value of your eBay Checkout donations by 25% at no cost to you


20 June, 2011 | 11:56AM BST

Hello,


Gift Aid


We?re pleased to announce you can now add Gift Aid to your eBay Checkout donations, increasing their value by 25% at no cost to you.


Simply make a Gift Aid declaration , ticking the box to say you?d like to add Gift Aid to your donations. MissionFish, eBay?s partner charity, will then claim Gift Aid on the eBay Checkout donations you have made, and pass it on to your chosen charities.


eBay users have given over ?4.5m to UK charities through Give at Checkout. Last year alone, 1.3m of you made donations.


If all eBay users who?ve donated at eBay checkout make a Gift Aid declaration, UK charities would receive more than ?1 million.


Thank you for supporting your favourite charities through eBay for Charity.


Regards,


The eBay team

We?d like to make members aware of an upcoming feature on My eBay. We?ll be introducing the ability for members to archive items from the ?Purchased? section of their eBay accounts. At this point we don?t have an exact date, but hope to include this later in the summer.


We?d like to take the opportunity to remind members that ?Won? items can now be found in the ?Purchased? section of your account and that you can customise your default My eBay page by using the ?General Settings? option on the top right side of the My eBay page.


Regards,
The eBay Team

Hello,


New features are now available in My eBay and can help you manage your purchase history, payment and postage activity, and watched items more easily. Now you can:

See up to 3 years worth of purchases. Whether you need to keep an eye on local and international purchases, identify sellers you want to buy from again, or retrieve information for tax purposes, you can now see? all your purchases on eBay going back three years. To view, click ?Purchase History? on the left in My eBay and select the purchase history period.Get improved payment and postage reminders. If you?ve yet to pay for an item you?ve won, you?ll see a reminder that identifies purchases not yet paid for. If you?re selling an item, you?ll be alerted when your buyer?s payment has cleared, so you can go ahead and post their purchase. Both types of reminders show a picture of the item in My eBay.Sort lists by most-recently added. If you like creating lists in My eBay (such as a ?Watched Items? list or a ?Shoes? list), you now can sort them by most-recently added within ?Watch List & Other Lists? in My eBay. It?s the easy way to view and compare your latest finds.

The modules for Unsold, Sold, and Active selling items have been removed from the Summary page. This information is still available under the Selling menu or in Selling Manager.
