    Another Ebay Stipulation put in to Take profit from Sellers

    Just read a message from Ebay stating that they may now reimburse the Buyer a partial credit for an Item received not 100% as described. Such as; missing part or parts, or some minor repair needed on item.
    And they will take that estimated cost from the Seller at anytime.
    Just another way to take more from sellers when ever they can.
    It sounds legit, but in my expeirience just trying to sell Xbox 360 consoles, it has been a nightmare!! I sold four units seperately, some "broken as-is no warranty for parts or repair", working order no issues and a couple good quality units in a lot with games, controllers and accessories. I got screwed atleast once and almost twice!
    The buyer in atleast two transactions made claims against me stating that the unit didnt work, or work properly and sent the items back in damaged or worse shape than when I sent them out and also got there refund back and Ebay charged me the refund even after almost a full month had past!!! LOL what a joke...
    Then on top of that, they limit you to how much you can charge for shipping. And by the way, they also now take a percentage from the final sale price INCLUDING THE SHIPPING FEE!!! THE SHIPPING FEE IS SUPPOSED TO BE THE ONE CHARGE YOU ACTUALLY COVER YOUR BUTT.

    As a buyer ebay is fine, but as a seller it is awful. However it is the main place to sell certain things.

    As a seller, I honestly can't stand Ebay. I despise their invoice system. For example, when you pay your invoice at the end of each month... I hate that. I wanna be able to pay my fees anytime I want, not in a bundle at the end. I can't even stand the charge for having a little larger picture on your listing.

    I try not to sell there at all any more. It's just not worth it, especially for cards where if you're a seller, there's very little room for profit nowadays, then Ebay swoopes in and takes most of that profit.

    I stopped selling on ebay a long while ago. I found I wasnt getting the Dollars I thought cards should go for. quite honestly I can hold cards till I get what I am asking and not lose out.

    I will continue to buy and find the deals I need. Well deals on everything expect Jerome Bettis Cards!

    99.9 of all of my sales go through perfectly. Don't let a few bad transactions from selling on ebay.

    why would you pay for a larger photo? just link your photos to your photobucket and adjust the size there. That's what I do and have never had the desire to pay for larger photos.

    I get the issue with having a large lump bill to pay at the end of the month, but I'm not sure how else they could do it practically. Seems like it would get very confusing if people were just sending payments here and there. Would be a lot more processing even electronically.

    as far as profits, somethings just are worth selling on ebay because your profits aren't that high, but that goes with anything. eBay isn't the only place that has certain items that aren't worth selling.
