I wish we could Block certain users from even SEEING our listings

There are a couple ebay sellers who are constantly harassing my by form of lowering their prices 5 cents below mine, no matter what I do, by using my marketing ideas and strategies, like copying the combinations I list, copying (yet rewording) marketing verbage.....etc

 

 

It's hurting my sales.  Can't they just get their own ideas?  I paid $200k for my degree in marketing, go get your own!

 

Grrrrr

Why is that?  Actually, they are selling STOLEN products.


I have no idea about that, and nor does ebay.

 

Hey they could come here and say the same about you...

You can see the problem.

If we all did this, no one on eBay would be said to be legit...

Beside you do call attention to them and just might get em a sale you want instead..

 

Think about it please.

"Have an item like this to sell: Or what ever it says.....

when you click it you get the description etc from that listing....

Of course some rearrange it ....

 

Welcome to what you degree can do for others.."

 

??When I click on sell one like this, all I get is the title.  No description, no pictures, no price, etc.  Why do you get descriptions??

You really should NEVER put anything on an Ad, in any form of media,  acknowledging what others may do and NEVER put anything negative in the title or description. 

 

Why? Because all the average person remembers is that ABC product has fakes out there, so I'll just stay away from ALL OF THEM.

@health411 

 

From one of your listings: "Below is a list of eBay user names all operated by the same scammer."  The list is lengthy.

 

1) Did you not attend any Law classes? I think that paragraph could be considered libelous.

2) Did you not attend any PR classes? I know  that the paragraph is publicity for your competition.

     You practically beg your viewers to price-shop. Heck, you make it easy by telling them where to look.

 

You say, "It's hurting my sales."

That listing info ^^^ can't  be helping your sales.

I think you'd stand a better chance supplying your own products, I don't think there's much in this Bepic stuff in ways of a profit, probably as well off looking for gold in dredge tailings.

How would they feel the same?  I am not copying any of their content, ideas or bundles.

 

What does not sound legal?


If you have proof of what you are accusing others (named ) of doing in your titles and descriptions, then turn it over to the appropriate authorities.  I don't understand being the judge and jury in an ebay listing.

^ this isn't harassment, this is just basic competition via pricing....
