Alright Already

Okay eBay, now that I've ignored your "Now you can get 3 free express payouts" emails at least five times, can you stop sending them to me?  Besides, not having any sales kind of defeats the point of an express payout, and makes your offer that much more annoying, donchya think?

*click* and it's gone.

eBay is wearing out the battery in my mouse.

You can always just delete the message instead of staring at it in your inbox.

Here is a link to Ebay messages that might relieve some of the stress, hopefully.

Ebay Messages for Beginners 

I commend you on a totally original and highly creative theory on why you have no sales.  It's refreshing to see a new one for a change. 😀

You can just delete messages?  Who knew?  When did eBay roll out this change, and is it working properly yet?

9 out of the 10 last deleted messages are 

Improve your listings to help your items sell

A couple, fine, 9 out of 10 annoying.

If there was an accident and a tree fell on your garage the day you get that email you might appreciate the opportunity more.  Ebay makes money on the venture but it also can help some folks.   I'm thankful I have the security to not need it and have empathy for those that do.

     I cannot count the number of email filters I have that automatically move eBay mails to trash so I never see them.

Haven't you ever set your communication preferences with eBay?

And the 'improvements' are always lower your prices/give us more money.

I never see any of these messages that others are getting, seriously.  Only messages from sellers who make me offers and notifications of payouts, etc.  Random stuff...go figure.

I love the 'improve your listings' messages. 

Every time I see that, I want to say: 'how about some advertising eBay'?

[ckimodog]

@sextons-sweet-deals 

Exactly...it focuses on all the "Tweens" who allegedly buy sneakers, sports cards, PS 5's and expensive watches.  When is America going to grow up? How about representing & advertising for the entire eBay selling community? Good post.

A new one will be: 

Decrease your handling time by shipping items for free before they are purchased!

Lol...thanks for the laugh and humor.  I needed it. 

All the best
