Just in case there is someone out there who doesn't look at My Ebay very often... I just did and found an email inquiry about an item. I am so accustomed to receiving email inquires from my ISP. This person received am answer two days late. So, you may want to check MyEbay more often for emails. Not doing so may make some your buyers unhappy!

Whenever I have checked the email question notice on My Ebay, it was for mail already received,read and answered by me through my regular e-mail. I don't believe you will miss the questions if you read your e-mail frequently. The notice in My Ebay, which is above the selling list, just notifies you that you have questions in your e-mail (in case you haven't checked yet.) That's my experience anyway.

The questions will appear right next to # of watchers bunnicula . A bright blue one will be there if you have a question. You can click on it and answer right from that page.It also has a button you can click to display the question and answer on the sell page.That way if you left something out that might need to be added to the auction it'll do it for you. Kinda neat. Can hide your e-mail address there too. Coincoach is right that they also send the question to your e-mail addy .

Thanks. I guess that's why I haven't seen it yet. I check my email several times a day & answer any questions from there, but only check "my eBay" every once in a while. That blue dot you mention must disappear after you answer emails, because I've never seen it.

I just went to an auction to answer an emailed question and up at the top, right under the title, was a link, You have 1 questions to answer.

Toasted is right. But that question found on the selling page of MyEbay did not come to my regular email. So I suppose it behooves all of us to look at our selling pages more often.
