Spring Seller Update.

[katrinkets]

Okay, let me get this straight.  THe requirements for being a magnificent seller are being RAISED (95% instead of 90% for on-time shipping) while the rewards for being such a great seller are being REDUCED?  (10% fee rebate versus 15%)  Huh?  Why would I kill myself getting to the Post Office 5 days a week?  (And please don't say I should arrange parcel pick-up--you can't do that for First Class packages.)  Again, Ebay pretends to be Amazon.  It's not.

so pretty much they want us to work harder (95% upload rate) for less benefits (10% discount) 😞

I have 5 days for handling time go to the P.O. Tuesdays and Thursdays and the time and gas saved not hoop jumping far outweighs the $10.00 to $20.00 monthly discounts ebay offers....

Yep, that pretty much sums it up.

What a crock! Always looking out for their sellers, aren't they? The rich get richer and the poor get poorer. Guess which ones we are??

In regard to the silly "name" --what are they thinking??

Obviously with the new updates and rates, Ebay wants us to go to Amazon.  Every year Ebay gives me more reason to stop selling on Ebay.  Everyone that I know that is selling on Ebay is really upset with the new updates.  Sales are down and then Ebay hits the sellers when they are already struggling to make a profit.

@katrinkets  I'm not disagreeing with your disgust--I feel it too.

I just wanted to let you know you can schedule a pick-up for 1st class packages.  That changed a year or so ago and I do this about every day.

Thanks so much for the info! Apparently I am not keeping up.... Must be that I keep dashing off to the Post Office!
