Cinnamon Posted September 18, 2006 Author Share Posted September 18, 2006 (edited) I am on 1263 ,but have 5 negs (NONE of which I deserved - 3 were from non-paying bidders ) Edited September 18, 2006 by Guest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cinnamon Posted September 18, 2006 Author Share Posted September 18, 2006 Nice one,Dan I think I must be my own worst enemy. If someone wins & doe not pay,I neg them,because I think they deserve it,but then they always retaliate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
N&J Posted September 18, 2006 Share Posted September 18, 2006 but if you do not leave negative feedback then the feedback is worthless - I have the most problmes with people on ebay who are just bupyers and don't understand what is involved inselling on ebay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cinnamon Posted September 18, 2006 Author Share Posted September 18, 2006 Agreed. I think that leaving negative feedback is the best thing to do,as it at least will warn others about the ebays behaviour. I always leave appropriate feedback for all my transactions Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lesley Posted September 18, 2006 Share Posted September 18, 2006 Oh *** - somebody on ebay is going to think I've not received my order I'd better go now and leave feedback hadn't I? One pink doggie harness and lead - even if it is fluorescent pink Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrs Frugal Posted September 18, 2006 Share Posted September 18, 2006 I don't know what my feedback score is because I'm banned from ebaying by LSH who deserves the long suffering bit after my ebaying habit got the better of me on more than one occasion !! I know I haven't got any negatives or neutrals though . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buffie Posted September 19, 2006 Share Posted September 19, 2006 We are selling our first things on ebay and I am not sure if we should ask for bankers draft, cash etc or paypal. Is there a downside to paypal It's getting exciting with watchers lurking...wonder what will happen BBx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cinnamon Posted September 19, 2006 Author Share Posted September 19, 2006 Buffie, if the items are large & for collection only,then make sure that you get a cheque & clear it before the item is collceted. Don't send out anything by post on an uncleared cheque either I like Paypal,but you are charged a fee for its use,so bear that in mind. Cash on collection is by far the safest option for larger items,Postal orders are also good (but be aware that if they are crossed you cannot cash them in a post office,they have to be paid into a Bank!) I only accept paypal from overseas buyers,as otherwise payment can take ages & you can also be charged by your bank. Make sure you have a good terms & conditions section written up, with any specifics in it that you want. If you want to take a look at a listing of mine,drop me a pm & I will send you a link Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buffie Posted September 19, 2006 Share Posted September 19, 2006 oh that's really helpful both of you. Pass charges onto the buyer that's simple hope they start bidding and stop 'just' watching soon BBx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cinnamon Posted September 19, 2006 Author Share Posted September 19, 2006 Yep, thats what I tend to do too. Although I prefer to start my listings low (as there is a sliding ebay scale of fees too, & a 99p start is cheapest) & make the P&P slightly more (although not HUGELY more) IE - the necklace I have listed will cost about 80p to send,30p for packing materials & I have charged the buyer £2 for postage,therefore covering any Paypal costs.

Charlottechicken Posted September 20, 2006 Share Posted September 20, 2006 I used to sell loads on eBay, but since the postal rates have altered so radically I haven't listed a thing. I no longer have a local Post Office either, and wasting lunchtime in the Post Office queue in a not too pleasant part of Birmingham lost its appeal I used to wait for the 5p or 10p listing days and list like fury for anything I wanted to ask more than 99p for, and of course passed the charges on through the post and packing/handling charge, just like everyone else does, even though you're not supposed to Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
