JMO but you have so many contradictions that as a buyer,I'd hit the back button.

the way your descriptions/ terms are written no buyer is going to trust you to do the right thing.


if you want to SELL on eBay you have to list so that a buyer is encouraged by your advertisement.

Returns for refunds must arrive within 7 days of purchase, but you do not post for 15-40 days??:|

maybe you need some listings that are just for Australian customers to get you going.  Order ten of the bouquets from your supplier and have them delivered to you.  Take your own photos for a couple of listings and do not use 'stock' or 'catalogue' photos.  For these 'Australia only' listings, quote an Australian$ price and not US$, and make sure your settings are for Australia only.


 


Tidy up your listing conditions.  I looked at one where you state "Returns for refunds must arrive within 7 days of purchase date" yet the delivery time is 15-40 days!  In other words you have no returns accepted for this item as it is impossible to return within 7 days of purchase.  Even if you were posting from Australia to Australian addresses it would be near impossible to return the item to you within 7 days.


 


Potential buyers would be concerned about losing their money if the product does not live up to their expectations.  They would have questions like "If it is shipped from China would I have to return it to China by trackable means?" and "If it takes up to 40 days to arrive and for some reason it runs late getting here, will it pass the 45 day PayPal claim period?" which are legitimate questions/concerns for buyers.


 


I know buyers would be able to claim on day 44 to ensure they are covered by PayPal protections, but inexperienced/new buyers get trapped all the time by the 45 day deadline and messages from sellers saying they have sent another one or it should arrive in the next week.

Your titles need more keywords, of the four used in the first listing I looked at (Pretty Bouquets Colours Available), IMO only one is actually relevant and, more importantly, the kind of word people would use to look for products like yours (that is, Bouquets - the rest aren't words people would generally use in a keyword search). You need more relevant words - eg rose, specific colours, other things like material if they're fake, or fresh if that's what they are (I honestly can't tell :8} ).




OMG DG! You broke the keywords! Now the listings only say Bouquets


 


eta128688, would you manage to find your listings if you were looking for these items? And would you buy from yourself if you found them? That's the key question.

Nahh - I'm giving up. Click Frenzy broke the internet. And I just noticed Mike and Molly is on Channel Nine. No more puter screens and adult toys for me tonight. Just some good ol' fashioned remote control button pushing ๐Ÿ˜„
