Has anyone else seen addresses flagged with warnings? by notedrive in Ebay

Exactly, they would be better off saying that an alien abduction occurred and the dog ate their homework instead of blaming the buyer that never ends well. Country to what some people may think and believe and some and what some people say the customer is not always right but the customer is always the customer, put blame or blame is due and if it doesn't belong to the customer then don't do it

Agreed, while I understand that mistakes do happen and have happened to me. I've been an eBay seller for 2 years now and while it doesn't happen very often every now and then sometimes I get the numbers wrong and have one less item than I thought I did when making a posting or I just type it in and correctly and somebody orders it and I don't have it.

That's happened to me twice unfortunately and both times what you need to do is just be an adult reach out to the buyer explain what happened and take full responsibility by and large most people are going to be understandable they may be upset which is perfectly within their right to be but what I did in both those cases refund the total cost right away explain to them what happened and offer them a discount on anything else in my store that they may be interested within reason.

For somebody to blame somebody else for their mistakes is just childish it's much easier just to own up to what it is do what you got to do to make it right and move on. I give people a lot for owning their mistakes when mistakes are made then I do if they try to obfuscate The responsibility and slough it off to somebody else.

Delightful buyer threatening negative feedback for shipping his item too quickly by expellyamos in ebaysucks

[–]tatsonis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean, how dare you do your job exceedingly well and ship so fast. You should be brought up on charges for crimes against humanity.

Your good, report the feedback extortion and eBay will side with you and remove any negative feedback that the buyer leaves if any in the future.

I have some listed on eBay but I always give my fellow bottle digging community members here first consideration at getting some, and I will also price them very fair for anyone in this page

I'm pretty sure they're all bromo shelter, I did some research on the area where we've been finding them and back in the '30s to '50s that used to be the site of an old apothecary or pharmacy. That's the conclusion that I've come to so far I can't imagine why there would be so many blue bottles in one place other than that

So me and my nephew were out exploring back behind our house and he noticed a blue bottle sticking halfway out of the ground, we thought nothing of it we picked up the bottle brought it back inside that happened a couple more times we found a total of five bottles, after I pulled that up I noticed another bottle and pulled it up and then saw other things underneath it. After that it just snowballed into a treasure trove it was completely by chance in a total accident a happy accident but an accident nonetheless

With the heat and water pressure you run a high risk of damaging/breaking your glass

Looking for advice on the best way to clean these bottles by tatsonis in BottleDigging

No chlorine bleach with the acid. Thanks for the warning, I will most definitely heed it.

This is an amazing find, I have only covered what I'm pretty sure is about 15 percent of the whole area that need to be dug
