Seller performance numbers

[catsnknots]

ok.. these are my numbers.... I think they are ok...

BUT   ............I post the day after I get paid... sometimes the same day...  always..

Postage and handling was 5.0 but after selling six items where postage was FREE I have now dropped down.... 

I don't get it... 😐

Item as described 4.94

Communication 4.94

Postage time 4.88

Postage and handling charges 4.94

If Aust Post want more money from us they need to get themselves together and post within a reasonable time... 

I can control when I post but I can't control when they deliver... not fair... X-(

[catsnknots]

and... when I charge postage I only charge what it costs... 

I can't send it any cheaper... trust me I have tried... 

Maybe I need to include a slip to show the click and send receipt so they know I have paid exactly what I have charged them...

Are you marking them as posted on ebay ?

[catsnknots]

yes.. sure am.

On free postage buyers can't mark that down.

Possibly you had earlier sales leaving feedback now?

And ebay's system intentionally delays DSR's for days sometimes so one cannot work out which buyer is leaving what ratings.

Unfortunately the difference between seller posting and AP delivery is something many buyers will not realize and part of ebay in the present set up.

Living in North QLD postage unfortunately does take a little longer than if I lived in the more southern areas.. 

I wonder if after I post I can email them and make a nice little reminder that I live further up the coast so it may take an extra day or two to arrive?

YES..  That could be the case...

If you did that you might get your COMMUNICATION numbers down for sending too many email notifications!

You can't win 😮

I would note this in each item description.  That way a buyer will see it before they buy.
