Goddammit, they did it again! This time without even notifying me.
I was checking through my items, and realised I hadn't actively scanned them to see if any of them had been put into 'best offer' mode, and sure enough, it had been aplied to about a dozen or fifteen of my items - completely arbitrarily as far as I can see.They had nothing in common. Some were re-lists, others were only a few days old; some were a little ambitiously priced, a couple were so rockbottom I'd almost not bothered listing them. They had nothing in commnon at all, and they were listings that had been up for some time, and not all originally listed at the same time.
I'd already had a rather annoying day, and it's probably good that it's too late for me to ring them up at the moment, because I'm spitting chips about this. What's worse I know that another phone call would be as pointless as the previous one. I don't want to say this, but many of the first-line ebay operators I seem to get not only have trouble communicating or digesting information, but it's clear that they're also woefully under-informed by their employers, and simply don't have more than a tenuous knowledge of the workings of the company they're representing. At least twice I've had to explain how something works to them!
I really think I'm going to have to put a disclaimer on my items. This is just completely absurd. I'm going to have to religiously monitor my items to weed out these damn arbitrary alterations. Again, I managed to get in before someone actually took 'me' up on any of those offers with pre-set, arbitrary alterations.
I'm probably going to regret posting this. To anyone else who this is happening to, I seethe on your behalf.
