Okay, thanks Sonia. I looked before posting but didn’t see anything.
Yeah, sounds about right to me. I usually stay clear of the Ebay Community Forums unless I have an issue or question and Google leads me there (which honestly doesn’t usually help due to being outdated answers or just bad advice from bad sellers).
Thanks, great advice as always, Jay. I spoke w/ buyer and he knows he has to pay the return shipping/custom fees/15% restocking fee if he wants a refund. When all said and done, he’d only be getting back maybe 30 bucks, so I said he’d probably be better off listing it for sale on Ebay to recoup his money. He said he’s going to think about it. Either way, he’s been an ideal customer so far so it’s went smoothly.
About the “ol switcheroo”, yeah maybe it’s just one of these Ebay urban myths but I am always hearing/read about it being done. I think you may be correct.
Thanks again!
When you got caught do they just take them down and make you move them or do you get suspended for a lil while or what? Does it affect your seller rating or anything?
After doing a lil research I see that Ebay says they allow Playboy, Playgirl, Penthouse, and Mayfair mags w/ nudity in regular categories, but any other titles have to go in the “Adults Only” section (even though every single listing of Easyriders I see on Ebay aren’t in the “Adults Only” section).
Thanks for the David Mann tip btw!
Welp. I cancelled it. Hope the buyer is understanding once he finally realizes what happened. Thanks for your help Jay!
Oh, I’m sorry…I might have explained it confusingly. I listed the jeans twice by accident and the buyer bought both of them (thinking I had two pairs). So I have one pair for him, but obviously don’t have the second pair. I’d just like to refund him the difference for the one pair and cancel the second accidental listing, but Ebay advises otherwise. Ultimately I guess I’ll need to do with they say I should do to avoid any problems, but it just seem necessary.
Jay (and Ryanne), let me ask you this. Instead of cancelling post listings and refunding his full payment for both. Should I just cancel the 2nd (accidental) listing and refund that one only? The person I spoke to yesterday at Ebay said that I would need to cancel both and relist them, but I wish I could just cancel the one and refund for that pair and be done with it. Hmmm.
Yeah, I’m afraid that’s what it looks like I’m gonna have to do. Hopefully, the customer turns out to be understanding and doesn’t stick me with a negative. It really sucks because I just started reselling again this past Oct. and I’m up for evaluation March 20th to move up to Top Rated. Hoping this doesn’t ruin that.
Glad to hear it didn’t last long for you. My sales are up 18+% and gaining from last month, so I’m happy I made the switch. Hopefully it stays like this!
Yeah, I totally agree. I think that’s what it’ll do for me. I’ve got the inventory…now if I can just get it all listed!
Yeah, I calculated all my numbers prior to subscribing and turns out that in the past 30 days I would have actually owed $4 more in fees w/ the basic store subscription. I’m sure it’ll help save money once I start listing a lot more stuff. Once I teach my wife everything, we’ll be able to really start knocking stuff out faster.
Yep, that’s right! I wonder how many of these people are sellers listing made in China crap trinkets, super cheap common clothing brands, etc. for too much. Don’t get me wrong, anything can sell (and does) but if you think you’re listing a zillion used super common clothes and expecting it to sell like hotcakes, you might have another thing coming. Got quality/unique/hot stuff…it’ll sell!
