just a bit over people not paying after winning and also others not leaving any feedback...

[rachel0037]

fed up with people wasting my time.. why the hell do they bid on something and then not pay.. i always send emails giving them plenty of time to respond but they never do.....  I just dont get it...

then when i do sell something theyre not leaving feedback... its just plain rude...

and the postage costs are killing me.. what i dont understand is how can something come from china for $5.00 including postage but the smallest item to post in Australia is $7.20 I just cant compete...

i think ebay in Australia has seen its day and wont be viable for much longer at this rate..

so not happy.. this is my whinge...

that is all...

My first Question is:  Why so high on postage,? This surely could slide into a ploy self sealing envelope and you could drop your postage down to $1.90 then offer Signature post as another postal choice for an extra $3.50 or just add the postage cost into the BIN price.

Feedback: Feedback is and has always been optional for buyers. We leave our feedback at point of payment

I also Have a special note included into every parcel regarding feedback. But sadly it's still optional

China Sellers Postage: They Purchase in Bulk like 5000 of just one item direct from the factorys that make the goods. Then drop ship the item to their customers, They do not as a seller even get to See, Check or Test and try the items. As we can here. This keeps thier postal cost down. They also sell high end items to balance out the postal margins. And it is here were they make their Profit. 

Customer whom fail to pay, I feel your pain. On one of my sites this year I'm already up to 270 FVF credits for NP buyers

Hope this helps ya

I didn't think you were allowed to duplicate listings like yours I thought you were only allowed one, I guess the rules apply to some sellers and not others.

i have no idea what you mean ive never been told anything about duplicate listings im just selling what i have

Have a read of this (eBay generally don't tell people their policies - they expect people to read them. I'm not trying to be rude, I know there's a lot of information available):

"Sellers can't have more than one listing of an identical item at the same time."

The duplicate listing policy only applies to BIN items. Sellers can have as many auction style listings running at the same time for the same item as they want however it is a pretty silly tactic as a second interested buyer will just go to the first one without a bid rather than upping the bid on the first one.

Key lights? I Noticed that 3 finish at the exact same time.  and 2 are just minutes apart. I recommend that you should go back and revise your title making all of them slightly different.  Re-arrange your description around a little, And if you have them change the photos also.

Then you end up with 5 separate listings that won't run the risk of these listing being removed with No refunds

These are eBays own recommendations to list muliples of the same product. as an Auction listing

I think you will find auctions are fine for duplicate listings, you can't have BIN duplicate listings...although IMO not very effective, usually when one item has a couple of bids, buyers will just go to the next one and bid on it, so items won't realise their best price....better off doing BIN with a set price for multiple quantities...
