I've been selling and buying for two years with no problem, I listed five items with out knowing these new policies. First off paypal is freezing my funds, close to $800 and I have a buyer bid an item up to $261 and sends me an email that he will pay $225 for the item, when I told him know, he gave me a negative before the night was over. I had another auction where ebay or paypal things I'm mail a $400 ps3 to a zero feedbacker with out having the money in had.

Ebay's next new policy shold be drug testing! Because someone is smoking crack!

I'm looking into other auction sites.

Ebay loves the GOOD sellers. It just wants the not so
good sellers to improve their customer service to help
ebay take the site to the next level.


..... tell them 'you can't have your cake and eat it too' for me next time you see em.

Ebay loves $$$$$$$, they don't care about anything else. Everyone is on their own, fend for yourselves, just make sure those fees are paid and keep your mouth shut!

Wow, so many refugees jumping off the sinking titanic and getting in life boats to 7.......It's fun and exciting again. And people are NICE! It's going to be the next place to be.

If we do select to block bidders with strikes, how does anyone know if eBay actually does it?

It seems to me one time I had one blocked with strikes. Right now all my blocked are from other countries and one without a paypal account.




There are no cheerleaders.
There are just people with a difference of opinion.

I just gotta say this again, maybe somebody will eventually agree with me. Heh heh, I'd even settle for a clown right now.

eBay doesn't give a hoot about good or bad sellers, they just want sellers that are willing to ship their own goods 'delivered to the buyer's door, insurance paid, satisfaction guaranteed or your money refunded and free shipping for returns' so they can keep Paypal going. It's the only 'terms of sale' that will work with Paypal acting as a buffer between the seller and the credit card companies as it now stands. I really think that Paypal is doing something that should be considered illegal by breaching on payments that weren't actually sold under the above terms (such as many still are on eBay) as if they WERE sold under those terms, and they have to make a change before it all starts coming down on them. Perhaps it's in the fine print when you accept a Paypal payment, so not illegal, I don't know, but if so, and the print got any bigger, many sellers wouldn't use Paypal once they knew the risk. I don't think eBay could care less about the 'quality of sellers'. What's better service got to do with a 'Paypal only' payment policy? They seem to be hiding the fact that they are forcing the sellers into those terms behind a facade of 'better customer service', and using absurd things such as buyer feedback for 'shipping' and return policies as a hammer.

"Ebay does not really care about sellers!"

Ebay loves the GOOD sellers. It just wants the not so
good sellers to improve their customer service to help...


eBay needs to improve their own customer service as a step in correcting their own wrongs and inequalities.

thetechpart,

you hit the nail on the head. Everything you just said is right on target.

I dont believe ebay cares about the quality of customer service either. Many of the big sellers getting high visibility in seaches more often than not have some of the worst shipping and shipping and handling DSRs of all sellers in that listing category.

Ebay just wants to ensure they make as much commissions as they possibly can. With higher commissions on every sale, it wont impact them nearly as much if a mass exodus of small volume sellers leave. Heck, the cost of doing business here has nearly doubled for many sellers since Feb., and now they are going up again...plus paypal will be mandatory which will increase their profits even more on each sale.

I think we can complain till the cows come home about issues that trouble most all sellers, but I highly doubt ebay suits have any intentions on changing anything UNLESS it is to add more cashflow in their own pocket which is never in the seller's best interest.

This is beyond stupid - the feedback mess PLUS all the other Nazi-like rules, including the PayPal ONLY payments coming up soon, have lost so many thousands and thousands of sellers and bound to lose more and more. I've watched dozens of my favorite sellers simply disappear and have heard nothing but disgust from all of my friends who USED to sell on e-Bay regarding all e-Bay's rules, regulations and nonsense all for deadbeat buyers, scam artists and other undesirables, but NOT one positive thing happening for the sellers who line their greedy pockets. Sick to death of all of it.

Ebay's feedback system stinks. Me and other Power Sellers are looking elsewhere. No Empire lasts forever. Buyer defaulted on item - go thru non payment system - 15 days later can relist item. Defaulting buyer gets unpaid item strike which shows up no where that anyone can see. I can't give him negative but even thought he defaulted he is able to give negative feedback. I do everything by the book - he screws up and gets away with it- fair - balanced?- what moron(s) in Ebay dreamed this sytem up.

The sellers are already at the next level, when is ebay going to get there. Ebay/Customer service, two words that do not go together.
