The problem is getting the message across to buyers.
They do not 'attend' these forums.
I am adding a message - with the understanding - most buyers do not read - to each & every one of my listings.
I am lost for another solution..
In each package sent I include a flyer with info on the item etc will be adding this to the flyer.
Just alerting one buyer is an improvement on the current situation.
I am asking all for improvements to my message - any suggestions will be very much appreciated.
IMPORTANT: INFO FOR BUYERS
We as Buyers are having a decimating impact on Australian Sellers
The newly introduced 'defect' system ie: the Detailed Seller Rating Stars are now a great part of the Feedback System.
These ratings if not an honest reflection of a sale will see your favourite Australian Sellers disappear from eBay.
A score of 3 & below become a 'defect' & be aware these ratings are no longer anonymous & could cause a block from the seller.
When purchasing do as you would do if in a store.
Do not just go by the 'pic' read the description - all you need to know is usually there.
This will help you if your item is not as described & save a lot of time & effort in having to return the item usually at your expense.
Ask a question - before buying - communication is not only expected from the seller.
Consider the postage costs & time - if the postage seems too high or the time stated for posting does not suit you - do not buy.
Sellers do not control the postal system anymore than they control the weather.
Consider the Seller's previous Feedback - always a good indication of the experience of others.
Keep in mind purchases from China are cheap but expensive to return with proof of posting for PayPal protection.

I agree you can not ask buyers to buy local.
My only beef with buyers are those that go to negative or dispute without contacting a seller to give them the opportunity to rectify any issues - I always send a Tax Invoice with a printed message -
Thank you for purchasing from XXXXX - in the unlikely event that you are not 100% satisfied with this item, please contact me immediately so I can rectify any problems as soon as possible. Thank you blah blah,
In saying that, I offer warranty's as I am a registered distributor, so any faulty item costs me nothing other than the additional replacement postage so long as I can provide my supplier with photo proof of fault etc.
Map out your future, But do it in pencil, The road ahead is as long as you make it.
Make it worth the trip.

You do realise it is 2024 - this thread is 10 years old.

And off topic
And abusive (like the feedback they leave)
And not a way to communicate with the seller or with eBay
A welcome addition to many party lists
