Literally. It's so dumb
Problem:
People are buying my items with 0 rep (happened 8 times so far, 2 being auction, 6 being buy now) then not paying up
People are buying from USA (their account even says based in America) even though i clearly put no international postage, and they dont pay up anyway
This is easily fixable? How?
1. Don't let international people buy products I am only selling WITHIN MY COUNTRY. I thought that was obvious...
2. Have a setting that disallows people with 0 feedback to buy your products unless they pay instantly.
But even then, some scammers i have got have 3 rep, 8 rep, and most recently suprisingly 223 feedback (though, only like 10 in the last 12 months). I assume this guy was hacked or something...
What happens and how do I know they are a scammer?
1. They never pay up, even after weeks, or they re-tract their buying (ebay says it was "someone else bought this without the users permission so the purchase has been retracted", leading me not even to report and unpaid item or anything..
2. They send me personal emails off ebay asking me to ship it, after sending fake paypal confirmation emails. Also after them being based in USA, they tell me to ship to Africa
So please fix this. Please ebay. I have so many stupid **bleep** in my seller dashboard and im getting tired of it...
Solved! Go to Solution.

Maybe ebay don't like your percentage? 93.3
'Have an ebay account in good standing' Who knows what that means.
To use the immediate payment option in your listing, you must meet the following requirements:

It should be higher but the most recent buyer put neutral accidently (even admitted they meant to put positive). I sent them a revision like a week ago and they still havent changed it 😕

One feedback revision is hardly going to lift it high enough to make a great deal of difference. Suggest you rethink your selling strategies. DOnt blame the buyers.

It might be something to do with the detailed seller rating. Maybe i need to at least sell 10 things with feedback given to me to be able to ask for immediate payment. Idk
Detailed seller ratings (last 12 months) |
This information will be available when this member receives at least 10 detailed seller ratings. |

Could be the stars. Who knows?
But in the meantime you are stuck.
No immediate payment available. So that's that, then.
