Yes, I had to deal with this issue before in the past with some used socks. I was never suspended but was advised not to relist. In my opinion, even if the underwear is vintage, and even if the rep gave you the green light to relist, I would not relist at all. Reps don’t know any better and the listings, if they are relisted, will be pulled once again and you may face permanent suspension. In my opinion, it is not worth the trouble and I would move on to other items.
Yes, for GSP, the weight and dimensions do not matter. On my listings, I never use any type of weight or measurements to make the listing process go faster. I have tried, as an experiment, to input this information to see if the GSP charge changes, but it did not at least that time I tried it. I do get GSP sales all of the time. I think when I researched this some time back I came up that GSP (Pitney Bowes) does averages to figure out the charge, so it wouldn’t really matter for most items.
Thanks, I think I read somewhere that it is against Amazon policy to display in packages other website other than their own. I’ve been trying to find a link but can’t find it, but just by looking at Amazon’s seller forums, it appears to be a big no-no, and could get Amazon account suspended.
Fortunately for us we had a strong weekend. Between two people we started packing between 8 am and finished at about 4:30 pm, just in time to drop off at post office. We probably had 100 orders during weekend, we usually have between 70 and 80.
IMO, they do better at auction, however, people are looking for messy, disorganized junk drawer lots, straight out of the drawer, even untouched.
Just got off the phone with eBay, the rep mentioned this had not been reported yet. He did confirm the listings I created yesterday were not indexed at all. He did look at my account and there are no limits or restrictions on it.
I think you are referring to the OP, however, I think I can answer these questions.
1.) The rates are the same as eBay Top Rated Plus, so you will get $6.9 for Padded Env, $6.35 for regular flat rate envelope, etc.. Where Pirateship excels is in providing Priority Cubic, which eBay does not. It could save cents or even dollars per package, which will add up over time. I use Stamps.com through Shipstation and they do offer Cubic rates, however, they mark it up quite a few percentage and in comparing Pirateship and Shipstation, Pirateship is way cheaper.
2) Yes, Pirateship sends the tracking number back to eBay, everything is automated. The good thing about using Pirateship, Shipstation, or other third party shipping software is that you can use your Credit Card to purchase shipping. If you are responsible with CC and pay off the balance every month, you can get nice reward points (cash) every month. I currently get $200 (free, essentially) every month in rewards just by paying the shipping with CC. No brainer, really.How did Pirateship work out for you? It seems promising, I currently use Shipstation and Pirateship seems like a good replacement, especially if it is for free. I am just concerned about them having access to my eBay account – this is not very well known software and don’t want to expose my account in any way by signing up with them and allowing them access to my account, thanks.
You store looks really good! I like that most of your store is composed of high priced items. Just put more listings up, but you are going about it the right way.
It would be a full refund, though. Just need to know if doing so will trigger a defect or affect seller performance in any way on eBay? Thanks
I saw the metric once (it was separate from the current dashboard) when they started to roll this thing out. They have removed it since then.
It would be very, very difficult to “accidentally buy” something on Ebay through the mobile app, especially if you have never done so through there. I’d be more concerned of a possible hack to your account or maybe someone in your family made the purchase?
