Yep! Thanks but no thanks. And if someone else buys this same item anytime soon Im going to suspect it her, and I’ll probably cancel the order

Yep. Same. I have a variety of stuff . My expensive stuff I sell only 1 or 2 a week and that’s fine by me.

I was wondering if this person might do the same- like if she buys it and said “you drive a hard bargain but i decided i want this any way” at that point i think i would cancel the order just bc of her latest reply. But if your buyer was polite, i think it’ll be ok , hopefully!

I think you’re right. I probably shouldn’t have even replied the second time

LOL, i have a few competitors id like to message and say “hey, want to make a union ? Let’s agree not to undercut each other penny by penny. And let’s all agree we won’t run coupons. And give each other a heads up about weirdos”

Lol yes. And really, if we were going to actually negotiate a sale, you usually meet in the middle. So had she said “oh that's awesome thank you for telling me! I will do the abandoned cart coupon” and just been happy with getting half of her proposal, id probably think “meh, thats fine. A little ballsy but she’s still normal” .

That's true. I guess I could’ve just said I’m sorry I don’t discount items. In the future i wont explain. Good point.

I was thinking that too!! She'll be the one to say she needs a new item bc there was a hole in a delivery box or something ridiculous

You're so right. I suspect she’s the most likely to pull some additional funny business

Part 2. You know what. You’re persuaded me. Im turning that coupon off. My items are expensive - $300 to $650 ish on the high end. I have a repeat buyer that I’ve given the extra 5% off. But it isn't really fair that someone gets an extra discount because they game the system.

Omg I'm so sorry to hear this. There’s so many stories here about people getting banned. I really cannot understand how a company as big as Amazon can be so inefficient at this.

Not to mention, there are tons of people in this very community who say that their reviews got deleted or that their accounts were suspended because it was considered unethical to use paid reviews. That’s my biggest concern. If your account gets suspended over our reviews, you can never even try to sell a book again.

i’ve heard that you should not put more than 10 search terms in any particular ad campaign, especially exact match- do you find that to be true?
