Best reasons i have heard why a seller can't ship my won listings

1.  the package was stolen out of my car before i could get to the post office.

2. The dog took a huge bite out of the item. 

3. My kid listed the item without me knowing--dang 5 year kids are smart tho-lol

4.This was the best--my ex climbed on the roof-ripped my telephone cable-wouldn't let me have the item-just got telphone service back so i could send you a message that i can't ship the item.

 

lots more over the years--but these were my best reasons i was given.

 

I don't leave bad feedback- if it can't be postive- it will be nothing-life is to short to worry with the small things-being a seller myself once i know that things do happen--keep in mind all the given excuses were from brand new sellers-lol

A defect on a brand new account.

I don't have any reasons as a buyer, but I have one as a seller....  I was out of town and my hubby forgot to mail it. Yep, I threw him right under the bus. But it was actually the truth. Anyway, they buyer was very understanding and gave me positive feedback anyway.

Re: Best reasons i have heard why a seller can't ship my won listings

I made a killer score on some poorly-listed item a few years back. The next day I get a message from the seller, to the effect that her 3-year-old took the item out of her house, threw it down on the sidewalk and broke it. 

 

Um... sure... okay... but I fix them all the time and have lots of spare parts; go ahead and send it to me anyway.

 

Sorry! It was already thrown out. Here is your refund.

 

I firmly believe that sellers (and buyers, for that matter) should not have small children. Then all our transactions would be perfect. Smiley Mad

Just got this one from an Etsy seller for an item purchased on the Nov 4

"Sorry I've been really busy all of a sudden"  Finally shipped on the 16th.
