Annoying questions buyers ask.
It's not a great time to be an eBay seller. Judging from the posts on this forum, I'm not the only one struggling with low morale. I thought it might be fun to share our favorite common/annoying questions we get from buyers. I'll start with two and I'm genuinely excited to read some of yours.
1. "What's the lowest you'll go?" So you're basically saying you want to do business with me, but you want it to be as unprofitable as possible for me as well. Nice. Imagine going to a job interview and the interviewer says "what's the lowest wage you'd accept?" Yeah, I'll pass.
2. "Any rips, holes, stains?" Yes, this item is covered in blemishes, but I purposely hid them in the photos and didn't mention them in the description. With my 60-day free return policy, I figured that would be prudent. You've uncovered my diabolical plot to make my fortune.

Being an eBay seller at this time is not ideal. I'm not the only one who is experiencing low morale, based on the posts on this forum. I figured it could be entertaining to share some of the most unpleasant or frequent queries we hear from customers. I'll start with two, and I'm eager to read some of yours as well.
1. "How low are you willing to go?" In essence, you're stating that you want to conduct business with me but that you also want it to be as costly for me as possible. Nice. Imagine being asked, "What is the lowest income you would accept?" during a job interview. Yes, I'll decline.
2. "Are there any tears or stains?" Yeah, there are flaws all over this item, but I purposefully didn't show them in the pictures or mention them in the description. I reasoned it would be prudent given my 60-day no-questions-asked return policy. You've exposed my evil scheme to amass wealth.
