How many times should an item be relisted.....?

[*raqshaki*]

Just curious about other peoples opinion.

I have watched something get relisted over and over again for the last 18 months for the same price.

This item wil never ever sell at the price they want for it.....it even got to the point where I emailed them to give them the low down on what items sell for in that category, with comparison items.

Got a very pleasant email back saying thank you - but there is the item again for the same price, and that price means serious listing fees.

I really feel for this seller - they are wasting money yet they are still on the ebay merry go round....should there be a limit?

I didn't realise a descent into puerility was required.

It's true. You're never too old to learn something new.

Well, its your own fault that you don't understand.

If you read the terms and conditions of the discussion boards before you posted, you'd know. 

So don't start complaining on the boards now.  Go and read that site map, before you do it again.

Groan... Theres been so many threads about this, its been done to death, boring

(can't quite get the tone right, but might sound familiar... ??)

Maybe you could actually answer the question?

What exactly am I supposed to find on the Site Map that will indicate why I am breaking the rules of the boards.

Given that I have been posting on the boards for nearly 7 years I have had very few slaps for breaking board policy.

How many have you had in the 15 or so months that you have been here?

The cat just wants to mouth off and annoy people and no doubt will deny it.

It is a comment that is against policy as it is misleading and discourages people to post freely on these boards.

pot and kettle deja,  pot and kettle

I think that after seeing the incorrect information that more regular posters give to so many OPs, I have come to the conclusion that It is not the length of time, nor the number of posts that make one an expert on ebay matters.

I don't know how many slaps I have had.  A few. And ???? None of them have been for advertising by the way .... but good on ya for giving the lurkers food for thought.

[lyndal1838]

And you still have not answered my question.  How has anything I have posted here broken the rules and what am I supposed to find in the Site Map?

I certainly do not advertise either....this is a strictly buying ID.  I just asked what seller would want to risk a slap for Advertising because they have posted with their selling ID?

Lyndal - please read my post.  It identifies the policy issue - discouraging use of the boards - which is a service of ebay.

[thecatspjs]

Oh better stop posting to discussion boards, don't think I will post anymore, its unsafe under this id.

[lyndal1838]

How exactly does it discourage use of the boards?

You really are scraping the bottom of the barrel with that reason.
