    I have a feeling send offers are not getting received to interested parties

    Summary: La discusión gira en torno a la preocupación de eskays15 de que las ofertas enviadas no están siendo recibidas por las partes interesadas. twyngwyn participa activamente en el intercambio, aunque no se proporciona el contenido específico de los mensajes. También participan otros autores como *casey*, countessalmirena, y p9games, ofreciendo respuestas que indican cierta interacción, pero una falta de claridad sobre la resolución del problema inicial planteado por eskays15. grannytakesatrip17 también añade una respuesta posterior, pero el contenido del mismo no está especificado.

    I send so many send offers daily to potential buyers at very good discounted rates and lately hardly any are accepted if any at all. I have a suspicion potential buyers are not actually receiving these from ebay.

     

    Anyone else have a thought about this ?

    One caveat, though…

     

    I do accept offers on occasion.

     

    It’s only that they’re too overwhelming in number; that’s part of the problem. The other part is that I don’t want a “forced” discount of which the seller isn’t cognisant. I find that offensive and outrageous; eBay should not be stealth-discounting as though they were acting on the seller’s explicit instructions.

    I must admit that I get fed up when I am just watching an item to compare with something which I may sell and almost immediately get an offer sent.

    Strangely enough, most of my sales are not from send offers. I may stop this for a while.

    Also a while back, I got fed up with people making ridiculously low offers, back and forth, so I quit or best offer.

    It went very quiet, so I put or best offer back on and seem to have more watchers.

    I think it. is trial and error atm.

    I'd block a seller spamming me if I dare look at an item.

     

    I've said this before on this forum.  Spend your time on building your business and not spamming people.  I've never once sent an offer to a buyer and never will.

    I look at many items, for various reasons. Most of these are not on my watch list. The offers still come like a swarm of locusts.

     

     

    I agree; too many offers received become counterproductive.

    I think a lot of problems are now caused by 'automatic' offers, often sent  by sellers who don't realise they're enabled.

     

    That was okay until eBay started sending them to  buyers who just 'looked' at items, not just have them on their  watched list.

     

    Buyers are getting  fed up with being inundated with offers for items they're not interested in, so  I think many switch them  off  in their buyer settings.

    ok cool thank you for helping out. So I guess either people just miss seeing the offer or do not wish to purchase.

    …or your competition is watching you. 
    You can assume by looking at the dates of views vs watchers
