Seller leaving ebay

I just received an email from seller in the UK stating they are leaving ebay due to their high costs and said they were changing to Amazon.
I wonder if thats going to start a new trend?

Re: Seller leaving ebay

I am aware of that. 

 

What that has to do with the OP I am not sure.

 

I am getting tired of regulars bring the trading boards to a new level of low.

 

Ignore OPs if they irritate or annoy you.

 

The OPs observation is topical IMO.

 

Accessing OPs buying information and posting to mock them is not acceptable unless it is DIRECTLY pertinant to their post IMO - the link presented here is tenuous at best.

Michelle obviously is losing one of her sellers in the UK - that's the OP

 

She buys dog food, possibly from that particular seller,  that's OT

 

Therefore, slr sales and I kept it OT

 

Want a new low?  Here goes..........

Lighten up ?? In the face of a PACK of posters who target every new thread or post the OP makes ?

 

No way (insert determined cat face smiley)

 

If the OP is genuine shame on you.- provide advice, leave it at that.

 

If the OP is a windup shame on you - ignore.

 

Its all so tedious and does nothing IMO but deter other newbies from posting to buying boards in fear their buying may be subject to unwanted and unscrupulous examination and outing for the purpose to publically mock.

I believe underneath it all, michelle has developed a sense

of humour over time.  I think she has grown and can see

the funny side of things.

 I can not take you seriously.  Your ID says it all really, it does not instill confidence IYKWIM

 

Regardless of what the OP thinks, other newbies may not see it so.

 

Grow up, stick to CS where the need to develop humour does not come at the cost of deterring others from posting on trading boards, due to fear of unscrupulous examination of aspects of trading that has NOTHING or LITTLE to do with thread.

 

Oh and take that finger you mentioned and do something far more productive with it.   FGS if thats the most you can profer ... lol not.

Re: Seller leaving ebay

Are you now telling me I can't post on a public forum?

 

Or I can only post what suits you?

 

Are you now masquerading as a mod?

 

And since when did cat's pajamas instil this much sought after confidence?

 

A pointless excercise - this will disappear shortly

Re: Seller leaving ebay

no. not at all.

 

I am challenging what you have posted.

 

IMO your posts add nothing to OPs observation  - which is pretty much on the money - traders are leaving eBay and letting their buyers know.

 

Pre-empting the results of moderation reports can often end in disappointment

Re: Seller leaving ebay

Michelle, there have been quite a few posts about members leaving eBay to go to other trading sites, but the consensus would seem to be that none of the others have, at the moment, the exposure that eBay has both within Australia or worldwide.

 

Certainly eBay is milking that for all it's worth with bigger fees and lesser backup for sellers (the "defect system" is probably the worst culprit at the moment, where sellers are almost certainly going to open an NPD in stead of going through a mutual cancellation).

 

My belief is that if eBay does not clean up their act (get T & S doing a real job on scammers, shill bidders etc etc etc) then there will be a viable alternative to eBay - buyers and sellers will go elsewhere if this site keeps going downhill.

Sits back to watch cat get stalked and stirred..............................................Hmmmmmm..................

Re: Seller leaving ebay

cats has been around long enough to know this

 

cats like to play before the kill

cats also knows the players

 

I think too that that the exedos of sellers is not a passing fad, but a very real issue that is worthy of discussion
