Done Done Done!

I am offically 100% had it. 

I got negative feedback for packaging. When everyone else raves about the same thing. Buyer obviously has no idea how free shipping is possible. 

Use heavy duty card protectors and no sleeve. My goodness a lack of sleeve it not something to give feedback about! Ebay does % all wonky to drop 1.4% for 2 bad feedback seems weird.

Work so hard and bust my butt hurting myself packaging so nicely much better now, and this is the thanks I get!!!

Now I am sobbing uncontrollably.  I can not do this anymore when I get treated like this by buyers!

Now that makes 0 sense. I package things all the same no matter the cost. And free shipping at low cost is the going rate for the items. I always look at sold prices before setting a price for an item. 

And no offense but do not listen to 0 feedback members.

It is when packaging is impeccible. Get many reviews for it have many times until this one. Ship carefully and make sure the card is snuggly in its cover. Ship the way that is the norm. 

[ellenshideout]

Not really. Sales are down 80% that is a BIG deal. Every sale counts. And I consider it $1.00+ made since costs are tax deductible. Already have lots more cards on the way since finally figured out bulk listings .

There are a lot of "0 feedback members" on here.  It's called a posting account.

Nobody is saying that isn't the going price for those items, it probably is.  What they are saying is if it is the going price, it isn't worth wasting your time selling them.  I come across items all day every day that aren't worth selling.  I pass them over and move on.  I also have items in my inventory that have dropped so much in value I need to pull them and just donate them.  Sometimes you just have to realize a purchase for resale was a dud.  Take the loss and get rid of them.  Since you sell bills, maybe bundle them up in lots of similar notes and sell them that way.

Also not listening to 0 feedback members is a very short sighted thing to do.  A lot of very experienced sellers have separate accounts with 0 feedback just for the purposes of posting in the forums.  Believe it or not, there are some very nasty sellers that will take offense to something that someone posted and then take revenge on their store.  0 feedback posting accounts are a protection method against that.

You should gave no $1 listings even if you charge for shipping. Those Belarus banknotes should be bundled into one or multiple listings and sold as a lot

So you've never heard that eBay members can have several ID's -- like one for selling, one for buying and another for posting to the Boards?

You are losing 14 to 24 cents per order on those $1 free ship items.

.63 shipping.

.46 ebay fee

.5 cents envelope/ label cost.

That is $1.14 right there.

If there is a top loader involved then those cost 10 cents in bulk at the very cheapest, most brands/quantities are more like 20 cents per.

Might want to watch my video on standard envelope shipping.

Just curious though, do you live in Georgia or are you just a lover of pies? I hope it's the latter.

I sell multiples of the same thing. I'll get one buyer that says what great high quality it is and is happy. Then I'll get another buyer saying the item is garbage and it's the worst quality and shouldn't ever be allowed to sell and is unhappy.

Moral: People are different. Just like how some people think country music is the best music around and others will think that it's all just trash sung melodically .

Shipping is 1/2 that I never buy full price stamps. 

Only list using free listings period so less. 

Envelopes I get dirt cheap. I write out my own labels.

Loaders. Vary but hence cost is tax deductible. So not really an issue. 

[ellenshideout]

It is suspicious to do that. It makes me wonder what people are hiding. 

Having a fraud investigator in the family you learn alot.

[ellenshideout]

Some is that but vary. Many are being reworkd since set to end today but out of free listings so left to relist next month. And with all the stuff tax deductible it is not a bad plan at all. Done research into that.

I believe they were referring to the eBay final value fees.  Most of us pay no listing fees.
