Having trouble sending a message through eBay

Post by Joey48442 »

I'd like to have access to the classified section, but I can't figure how to send a message through eBay. I have my inbox but no way to compose a message. Any ideas?

Thanks!

Thanks so much! The problem was doing it through the app! And then it kept sending me to the mobile site... Had to switch to classic view. I'm all set now!

No prob. Leave it to eBay to make you jump through multiple hoops just to contact someone.

You can also click on "advanced" at the top right of ebay's main page (along side the "search" button). Then on the next page click on "find a member" in the bottom box on the left.
