I also hate over-padded S&H charges. If I'm interested in the item, I'll call the seller on it. Several times I've been told: "Oh, give me your zip code, and I'll tell you what you would acually be charged." Then the S&H charge drops to something reasonable. Hmmm...<BR/><BR/>Sorry, but I can't resist telling you there is a misspelled word under: Six Solid Rules for Certain eBay Failure, item 5, third line. "Ernest" is a guy's name. "Earnest" is the correct spelling.SueBnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-700509749145938272.post-25723423427696284542007-01-12T12:13:18.473-08:002007-01-12T12:13:18.473-08:00You should definitely include the phrase "Non-paying bidders will receive negative feedback" in BIG RED LETTERS. Because, you know, that's really going to make em want to pay.Biddyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11284319721224160225noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-700509749145938272.post-72387319510733152852007-01-12T11:17:01.321-08:002007-01-12T11:17:01.321-08:00Don't forget to add "Add a 'List of Rules for Buying from Me' on each description. Especially point out the consequences of: not paying on time, forgetting to leave POSITIVE feedback, etc. Make sure to be very threatening and talk about bad past experiences.<br /><br />I love this post, sarcastic but valuable points.

I also don't like when people recycle pictures and do not take pictures of the actual item for the auction. I had a friend who recently learned of someone linking to a picture on his website for their ebay auction. He said next time they do that, they'll be in for a surprise.Lyla Bhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10011678911167210470noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-700509749145938272.post-55799189532516046952006-09-20T10:08:10.528-07:002006-09-20T10:08:10.528-07:00I always find it amusing how some people add a 8.00 shipping charge, when i know it will cost about a two bucks to send something...I won't even touch it.Jersey Girlhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18031066572647068908noreply@blogger.com
