eBay.in , by far, the pooorest ever e-com site I've ever used on earth. This is the 4 time I'm registering as a "new" user. And they keep messing with the registration workflow.
The last time I _tried_to_register, they were asking for my mobile number, and they said they sent me a OTP for activation it never happened. And I couldn't use the phone number again. It went into a total deadlock. That was like a real sh*t. And the customer support guy was talking like a dead man speaking through the tomb. Completely ignorant of the rotten state of mind their site takes an user into. He did not help me get through the login.
Now they had re-invented the wheels with email login/activation.
They send an activation link + confirmation code.
The confirmation code that they sent never worked. I kept on submitting the code multiple times. But it stayed on the same page. And just by a guess, I thought it might have actually activated in BG without confirming back with an ACK or taking me to the success>>login page. & I was right. It did let me login with my email. But no ACK anywhere.
Then, Now how silly it is to ask the user change their password after logging in for the first time. AS IF, they had send me a temporary password. I set my very own password during registration, Why the heck I need to change it? They had just sent me an Activation code to activate the link, they didt send a temp password. Then I changed my highly encryptic password painfully adding rest of the symbols in keyboard.
After having wasted a lot of time already , I managed to login with my account with email/password, Now it's freshly asking me to enter AN activation code. The old activation code that they sent , doesn't work. I'm locked again. $%^&*(#$. WTF, which activation code they are talking about? 
eBayofShit.
I can't believe such a HUGE company, they can't get a simple registration workflow right.
eBay is crappy everywhere or it just happens only with .in?

Nah, it's just you.
FleaBay knows what you are trying to sell, and they just don't want that on their site.

People still use E-Bay? Wow, that's so last decade 
(I kid, I kid... I'm just one of those weird people who have absolutely no interest in auction sites and thus never made an E-Bay account)

They can be handy, particular if you ignore the auction parts.
I get through about £40 worth of embossed food grade vacuum seal plastic a year, and it's the same price, from the same company as it is on the actual company website. But...on their site they want £10 delivery for orders under £75, and a credit card, on FleaBay there is no minimum order, no delivery charge, and I can use PayPal.
It's similar to Amazon, but without the pressure to try a Prime account.
A Bit Off Topic: I wanted a DVD for Herself (she likes the Dragon Riders of Berk TV series) and found it for £1 more on FleaBay than Amazon, but with no delivery charge which made it cheaper. Ordered it, and it was sent from Amazon as "a gift" using the sellers Prime account which gave her free delivery!

Have you tried rebooting your computer?
It was broke, so I fixed it.

I too have heard that 'ebay dot in' is pretty crappy. Heard this with respect to their delivery service, and their sourcing too.
In fact, a colleague of mine got wild, and started **shouting** at the customer service zombie; all this during office hours. We had to go and pacify him. He is completely dismayed at eBay India.
Some of my friends call this company as Goobe (a Kannada word - search for its meaning)

...can't rip their faarrrkkkking heads off.
I was called out to a customers Tuesday as the computer was slow. Turns out the thing is faarrrkkkked. Motherboard or something, but clicked something, live out the rest of your life and it still isn't doen. If you want to run an Administrative tool, then bad luck.
So I organise a nice new shiney 6th Gen i7 with Windows 10. Then I get the software from the customer, all original.
2 untouched, unopened copies of Windows XP Professional.
1 Vista Ultimate with the license sticker still on it.
Office XP Profesional.
QuickBooks from 2008.
His other software for his business (tradesman) has been purchased and downloaded from links in emails. From what I can see it was last done in 2009.
So then it gets better. Looking at the HDD from the old computer he was using Office 2013, talking to him it is Office 365. He doesn't know his Microsoft Account or any passwords. It's all kept in Norton Vault.
Looking through the old HDD I find he has old installation files for Norton Identity Safe. So I login to his ISP Webmail, then reset his Norton Accoutnpassword and login. His Norton Identity Safe subscription is expired, I can renew or delete his backed up files.
It's too late to call him, I can't get any of his software installed and he wants this back and working tomorrow morning. It's currently 22:10 and there is no hope this will be sorted.
Will have to put the HDD back in the old shitbox and hope I can get something out of it.
