THE NERVE OF EBAY

[webwanna]

Ebay just sent me an email saying " Listings Not Moving, We've Got Ideas"... blah blah blah.  Cracks me up that the data they included in the message is obviously wrong....blah blah blah....please send us more money to promote your listings.

I've had 3 days of slow sales right in a row and then I get this message.  Coincidence?... I'm not so sure.  I'm really developing negative feeling about Ebay and feel like they are working against me most of the time.

Yeah I've got ideas too..... Ebay stinks, the platform doesn't work half the time, most of this week the Seller Hub has had a message that Ebay is having technical difficulties, and they are trying to extort more money from me to provide the service I am already paying for and not getting.

The nerve of Ebay....

I just got that same email and felt the exact same way! Of course I can’t post what I really want to say.

Ha ha ha. This post reminds me of an antivirus company who infects your computer then says "Hey your computer is infected!! Buy our antivirus software to protect yourself."

It was a rather hurtful email.  I didn't know I was doing so poorly.

I got the same message and am still laughing about it.

They might as well send a threatening email saying "not promoting your listings? Sure would be a shame if something happened to them"

Just another bot mail, don't take it personally...

Sort of, they did suggest in the Email : 4. Promote Your Listings...

It was more than a bot mail. It was a menacing message....

Like.... promote your listings or else....

Didn't like it.  Whoever developed that email is a snake....  

Is Ebay trying to make my skin crawl?  Ick....  not a good feeling.

I'll second that! Like they had enough time to put together that email and yet won't spend the time fixing the site, WHICH IS the exact reason we are having carppy sales to begin with. FIX YOUR SITE EBAY!

just like what I say (about all of these corporate ecommerce sites) :

they poison the water then sell you the antidote.

kinda evil

[flyingmvp]

Exactly.  All that is rolled up into my general feeling of ickiness when I opened and read that email.  Totally tone deaf moronic move... & a bit menacing to boot....

FIX YOUR SITE EBAY!!!!!!!!!!
