so my old lounge sells for $100 - to qld! im in vic.
she has 3 feedback. so i email,
" hi did u purchase this for a friend in victoria or a house here?"
"no for my house' she says.
hmm. nothing for 4 days. i put in the non payer.
she says i cant pick it up can you post it!!
WELL GEE, I JUST CANT FIND A SATCHEL BIG ENOUGH!!
then last weeks moron who wanted me to post before the echeque cleared, and then she told me her account was faulty and it would bounce! no i hadnt sent it. (This was in another thread)
just a couple of the reasons i gave up buying to sell a few years ago.
1: feedback switcharoo: as soon as the no negs or neuts for sellers came in, i knew it was game over. just too many people wanting a free ride. and ebay doesnt give a **bleep** about feedback blackmail. unless you really push it.
2: rising postal costs,
3: so many online shopping avenues now, just too big a market.
4: new tax reporting rules, the amount goes down each year. you sell the family car, theywant to know about it.
and now 5: the new returns rulings. its just wrong. when you buy something from taget and it doesnt fit, you drive back there. you pay fuel both ways. why should we be out of pocket 1 cent because the buyer got it wrong?
even if its faulty, you take the item back.
and how do you prove the condition it was in?
cheers
need more wine!! or whine!!
