On the 1st of August, eBay adjusted the standards required to reach Top-Rated Seller status, along with a host of changes to its benefits and branding.

Consequently, from the 17th of September, the eBay Top-Rated Sellers badge is no more and has been replaced with the eBay Premium Service badge – but only for those who meet certain requirements.

In order to qualify for the eBay Premium Service and receive the associated benefits, it’s important your business fulfils eBay’s new delivery and returns guidelines.

To meet the new delivery and returns requirements, your business must: 

  • Offer a minimum 14 days return period
  • Offer a one day or same day dispatch option
  • Offer an express 24hr delivery option
  • Offer a free domestic delivery option

Get it right and your items will enjoy increased visibility in the Best Match search results AND you will receive a final value fee discount of 15%.

Put simply, the online retail domain is rapidly changing, which means your customers expect to have their goods delivered speedily, affordably and, if need be, returned promptly and with the minimum of fuss.
