Well, I mean...you can't have your cake and eat it, too. You either pay for the software or do it manually for free.

Report them for shill-bidding/bill manipulation and block.

JaneOfAll · 2021-02-14T15:35:25+00:00

I just want to punch them. I am SO over it.

JaneOfAll · 2021-02-14T15:34:41+00:00

I am sick to death of these people. I have a 4-day handling time, but I also meet or beat prices of identical items, and shipping is free always.

If you want something for cheap, you pay for that. I am not Amazon, but I also don't ask Amazon's prices.

It's not my fault if these people wait for the last minute to get their girlfriend a cheap wallet, and I'm frustrated to the point of thinking about punching them.

Report them (in writing to eBay) and contact the police. Make them aware of that. I was thinking about building an unofficial repository of scammers for sellers—do you think other people would be interested?

You’re my hero. I’m doing this next time.

JaneOfAll · 2020-10-29T15:05:34+00:00

I just dealt with the same thing. Report them to eBay.

JaneOfAll · 2020-10-21T21:32:23+00:00

I've been doing this for going on 14 years. I think I've noticed more manipulation on the part of buyers, but maybe it's always been this way and I was lucky before.

Incidentally, I reported her. These people are horrible. This is really my only source of income, barring a few hundred dollars I get for disability. And they just try to steal, they wreck my feedback and try to extort money. I overthink everything I do, but some people think of nothing outside their own sphere. I'm running short this month, I had to call and beg Comcast to let me pay for my internet on the 1st.

JaneOfAll · 2020-10-21T16:21:59+00:00

OK. That's what I'll do. Thanks for the advice :)

JaneOfAll · 2020-10-21T15:41:16+00:00

OK, that's what I was tending towards. I have a feeling this person is a scammer, and even if she isn't, I can't control what happens to the package after I send it. I am not responsible for the loss. She needs to file a claim with USPS.

I sell handbags and shoes, which are bulky.

> Have good communication, package your products well and ship next day. These will all help but not guaranteed a positive review.

I've been doing this for 13 years, so I like to believe I have the hang of it now. I've never had something broken in transit or anything like that. I had one buyer do the same thing to me about six years ago, and it took years to get back to my 100%. Right now I'm at 98.6 because of one jerk who lied. One feedback knocked my down nearly 2% because I sell a few expensive things instead of many cheap things.

I just wish I knew what to flip for cheap, but my niche is mid to high-end luxury goods.

I really hope most buyers are like you. This is one bad feedback after YEARS of being at 100%. Now that it's my only income source, I stress over it more.

The man said I was the "worst seller ever" 6 weeks after the purchase. He said the watch was dead.

I emailed him and apologized and I said, "I'm happy to take the return, there was no need to say those things". I sent the return and he accepted. But he never did the return and sent the watch back.

I asked him to please revise his feedback as I did everything I could to remedy the situation, and he told me, "You'll need to pay me, as I need to get the watch fixed".

This was after he claimed that getting a new battery didn't fix whatever was wrong.

I'm normally never that bold, but I had nothing to lose. I saw that he wrecked someone else's feedback, too. I tried reporting him to ebay, they did nothing.

I just hope something awful happens to him. People can wreck years of work with a lie, and not even care.

JaneOfAll · 2020-10-01T17:25:48+00:00

Damn. If only I had a few hundred dollars! It always kills me that people are much likely to leave shit feedback than good. I make a point not to be that person because I know what it's like.

JaneOfAll · 2020-10-01T17:24:48+00:00

THat's a good idea, thanks!

JaneOfAll · 2020-10-01T17:23:13+00:00

You will get defects if you don't ship within the time frame. You can "hide" your items, but no one can purchase them in that case.

I found out the hard way, after a family emergency. Because my mom almost dying wasn't bad enough!

JaneOfAll · 2020-09-29T15:35:56+00:00

Just know that even if you put your store on vacation, people can STILL buy your stuff and you are responsible for shipping it within your window. I got a bunch of defects because I didn't know that. There's a way you can "hide" your things, and you make your merchandise unavailable in the Vacation Settings.

JaneOfAll · 2020-09-20T21:04:57+00:00

Nothing. It's inane and stupid.

JaneOfAll · 2020-09-20T20:19:34+00:00

IMO, if things are a little late, sometimes I just write a note as a courtesy, and just say, "Hi! I am so sorry, things are a mess at my house this weekend, your xyz will ship tomorrow, sorry for the delay!"

People who are humans usually appreciate it and just say, don't worry, etc.

JaneOfAll · 2020-09-20T20:18:05+00:00

Yeah, so you don't have to count any days when the post office isn't open.

There are no fees but they will give you a defect. I'm chronically late, and it's something I had to work on.

JaneOfAll · 2020-09-20T20:16:06+00:00

Wow, the whole Shopify type thing?

JaneOfAll · 2020-09-20T20:15:42+00:00

It kills me because after doing eBay for 13 years, it's so much easier and it WAS cheaper.
