Meanwhile, how make strikes until an account is closed?? is it when defects hit 5%? (no where near that, but still, just waiting for it to happen since its completely out of my control).
From what I've read -- on these forums -- eBay will send you a warning once your defect rate exceeds 5% and you will have a certain period (a few weeks?) in which to improve before you are shut down from selling permanently. You are, of course, still able to buy (!).
Interesting comment about those postage time defects. I wonder what would happen if you set your handling (not delivery) time to 10 days and an item arrived in 2.
