“Nothing ain’t worth nothing but it’s free.”
(“Me and Bobby McGee”, written by Chris Kristofferson, best-known release by Janis Joplin).
Where were you in 1970?
I use ecomdash to do what you want. I sell on eBay, Amazon, and Shopify web store. Sales on any of those will sync inventory with the other 2, etc. They are a bit pricey at $95 per month, but manually syncing is time-consuming, and out of stock after a sale causes customer issues which can also take time and possible negative feedback.
I’t been a while since I set this up, over 5 years, and I don’t remember all the setup details but I’ve always been satisfied with their support as far as time and accurate responses, and they have an excellent knowledge base. As I recall they had a 30-day free trial period, which they extended when I could not get everything (over 2000 SKUs completed in 30 days. It pretty much runs itself after setup.
Don’t take my word for any of the above, as I said my memory is hazy since it’s been so long since I started with them. Call them for details, as I recall they offer great assistance during the setup.

Horse twitch, used for controlling horses by diverting their attention away from what is being done to them.
I haven’t had time to analyze many of the category changes. One that jumped out at me in Automotive was changing the category Spark Plugs and Glow Plugs to just Glow Plugs. Glow Plugs are used in Diesel engines to preheat the cylinder before a cold start of the engine, Spark Plugs donate gasoline vapors in each cylinder in the proper synquence. A really stupid uneducated change. No doubt there are other changes as bad or worse.
My 2¢
I deleted my blocked buyer list 10 years ago and haven’t regretted it. To me, it’s not worth the trouble of maintaining the list for the few times it MIGHT prevent a buyer from impacting my business twice, and I’ve never regretted the decision.
I don’t use multi-user so haven’t seen this but, in general, when something like this happens I will clear cache and cookies. That usually fixes the issue.
When I look at my account information there is a separate place for Business Details (EIN shows there) and Owner’s Details (SSN shows there).
You might try pallet wrap (many layers) pulled tight over cardboard cut larger than the diameter of the wheel.

Much of my store is multi-quantity and I use the multi discount option.
The discount only applies to the specific listing.
There may be something you can do outside of multi-quantity to give a discount for over a certain amount for instance. The hazard of covering multi-discount across multiple listings, unless all your items are the same price, the buyer could buy 3 cheap items and 1 expensive item, I don’t think that’s a good idea
2nd the suggestion on inkFrog. I think they have a 14-day free trial, if that’s full access it should be enough time to get this done. Try a few first to make sure they aren’t messing up the listings due to whatever weird thing in the other listings. You might need to change the names of business policies to match what you use.
I have some current dealings with Missouri state government person, I got a canned response on an email I sent her this morning saying they were closed today due to the new holiday. I need to go to our county courthouse for another piece of business but need to call them first or wait until Monday.
Personal TENS units are available for sale on eBay under the Health Care category. Example: https://www.ebay.com/itm/184393471004
Cash and/or money order are options in the Business Payment Policies. You would need to set a different policy for that listing instead of your standard policy, and I’m sure Immediate Payment would not be an option then.
I have taken money orders in the past, but I insist on USPS money orders only, in my opinion, those are safer, but I admit I haven’t don’t any research on that opinion. You do get cash in hand right there as opposed to depositing and waiting for it to clear. You will have to manually mark the order as payment received, the shipping clock starts then.
Way back in the early days I had 1 customer, maybe more, send me cash for an inexpensive item. Risky on their part because they have no way to prove the seller ever received it
