We have 3 different stores and have sold NOTHING in over 1 week. Our Products are very cheap compared to others selling similar items. But 3 different srores and not 1 sale. We List new items almostly daily and still nothing. What is going on with eBay? Have the lost the plot? We (Store) Owners are paying for a service. and eBay keep Restricting, Limiting our sales. They tell us sweet FA but still want their money. 3 months ago they took 2 cents from my Bank account because my Paypal account was 2 Cents short. Anyone tried eBid yet? love to know the results. Sick and tired of eBay Restriction, Fees, MBG and a lot more

They say forewarned is forearmed and I would really, really like to know what tactics you suspect eBay is using to prevent people from bidding on or buying your listed items.

sorry caps
but just before the **bleep**py week had a great weekend
i dont put that down to a conspiracy
but
i do wonder
maybe it is due to just being end of financial year
(i notice there has always been strange occurances this time of year in my day jobs over the past 25 years of being an employee)
maybe its bad luck
(that does happen)
maybe people are looking for different items right now
(i know i need to work out what they are)
sales is the weirdest game...as much as we put into working out how to attract buyers ...if everyone only wants to buy toothpicks and i am selling pitchforks ...without convincing them their teeth are going to grow exponentionally ..i may have to wait until they want pitchforks again 🙂
i dont work for ebay
ebay works for me
(though would be happier if they worked harder)
as a new seller i find it has been working a lot better for me than if i had to find customers myself
i just put a whole lot of my shop on buy 1 get 1 free for a week (scary) but maybe will make people look at more of my stuff 🙂
maybe sales have gone down due to the weird money thing with the yen ?
who knows...
dont stop trying to sell just because you havnt sold ....maybe all those customers will all come in in one day and blow your mind? who knows 🙂
I have proof that the Protected Selllers monitor these boards through IP addresses and names Will Be Mentioned on a new Facebook Page very soon. I am sick of the **bleep** ebay use. They give certain seller free go to watch who is complaining and Lithium give them modertor status. Where does your averager seller stand. I hope you have read every meeage in this post because if you have not you will have no idea what we are talking about

Yes, it is a bad word accouding to the ebay bots.
Have you never wondered whether those of us who post about "carp" are bad spellers or fishermen?

Why would anyone monitor these boards through IP addresses?
And why would they give any seller/s freedom to watch who is complaining?
Anyone, including the Moderators themselves can read these PUBLIC boards and see who is complaining.
Why would Lithium give anyone else moderator status.....anyone can report posts to the Lithium Moderators who can then decide for themselves whether the post deserves to be edited or removed.

Has anyone got a few rolls of foil I can borrow? I just ran out before I finished getting my house all protected and the supermarkets are all closed now. I'm so scared that someone/something is going to get me, I really want to get everything foiled up before morning.
They are coming you know. They're watching all of us. They're coming to get us. Oh no, they're here! Quick
Sorry, can't talk any more, I have to go and tend to all the sales I have made today. If my sales keep increasing like they are, I'll be able to give up my regular job soon. The last few weeks I have made more than double my regular job and this week is looking to be triple. I guess that's one of the luxuries of being an eBay employee and a moderator in disguise. It forces people to buy my items instead of yours. Because after all, the buyers all know that I'm an employee.
You know the best part about being an employee? Buyers are forced to buy your items, AND there are no fees. In fact, eBay pays ME to sell my items. I get paid 9.9% instead of paying them 9.9%. How cool is that? You're so jealous, aren't you?
Good luck tracing my IP address.
