Leaving eBay: Not as Easy as It Sounds
borrowing a line from you.........
''There do not seem to be any clear-cut rules and/or answers on eBay's site concerning...''
indeed, many aspects of ebay buisness are not clear cut, transparent, well defined, well conceived etc etc ...
when for example, dsr and feedback ratings now become potential penalty points effecting the sellers qualifying for substantial discounts, surely all related matters must be a one size fits all set of published reg's........
meanwhile.....
ebay sit as judge and jury in their own closed court, deciding if fb should be withdrawn or not, employing complete discretionary power, is this just, correct or proper?
when they might benefit financially.... eg disputed neg' fb is not withdrawn, then counts towards a seller not enjoying discount benefits.....
Who Wins in eBay's New Shipping Cost Requirements?
agree with you on this one...
and your q' ''wait, who wins on this one''?
here's some more shipping/pnp nonsense for your thoughts.
(i have posted on another thread then copied and pasted here for your easy ref'...)
In the uk a part of the new measures '' to improve the buyer expierience '' heavy emphasis and promo' is getting behind 'free postage' and 'least expensive postage' listings......
There's recently a 'free postage banner' on the home page driving sellers to listings offering this nonsense.
Nonsense?
Yes, how on earth can it possibly be free, it has to be built into the purchase price instead.
Isn't this all a tad deceptive and disingenuous?
In any event, cheapest isn't always best, especially re' service industries.
Sellers only enjoy paypal coverage if they ship recorded delivery, Whilst ebay encourages buyers towards less expensive options, with no effort to highlight the cheap choice risks...
Towards the same ends, the new search facility offers cheapest postage search...
Well how about a 'safe secure/insured postage' search too?
Meanwhile....
As competitive sellers introduce free p n p, building it into their purchase prices, there is one short term beneficiary - ebay, with a higher purchase price from which to take a fvf %
Hmmmmnnnnnnnnn..... Conflict of interest ?
How Donahoe Broke eBay
Thank you for ringing the alarm bells lets hope that those with influence are listening.
In the uk a part of the new measures '' to improve the buyer expierience '' heavy emphasis and promo' is getting behind 'free postage' and 'least expensive postage' listings......

Q1 Data Bodes Well for eBay's New Fees
you say '' one positive article '' - well whys that, why is it literally 'out there' so unique, so alone ?
you say '' freak out '' - why the low blow intimating irrational thought, no ones freaking out here, but, there are many who are sincerely concerned.
and then to use your own (borrowed) expression 'WOW' , you deride solid folk here as yarn and kitten store, dishonest, unpro' sellers with out the capacity or intellect to use reverse gear if they take a wrong turn......
you also say - ''grow up'', '' become professional ''
well i say practice what you preach and scrap the gutter scraping slur tactic.
meanwhile....
caring friends of the big guy, will brave the paid mercenary guards and yes mens best blocking efforts, they will tell the emperor the truth as they know it, especially when he might catch a cold !
Q1 Data Bodes Well for eBay's New Fees
