Minimum order amount

[rmv5555]

Why does ebay not allow sellers to set a minimum order amount?  It's so dumb that I have to fill these small orders for 99 cents.   They should let set a minimum order amount so that I don't have to deal with these small orders that don't make me any money or even lose money.  Their customer service said to add a shipping fee.  This would work in theory but would destroy your search impressions.  When is this company going to start to do ANYTHING that makes sense

Your language.  Please respect the forums.

I have no idea what you’re talking about

[brightlightbookseller]

Yes you do.  You'd have likely received multiple warnings from the mods of this forum by now I expect too.  Please enjoy screaming into the void.

Sounds good

Your  sales volume is just fine.  BUT you need to  learn how to make a profit.  It is not an eBay issue  You picked the how, what, where and who (as in you) to sell., the HOW is up to you.  eBay clearly defined their procedures and policies for their  forum

Now that's not the PMA you need to be successful.  Kinda like I'm going to pick-up my ball and bat and go home.

I didn't know you had access to my financial data?  That's crazy.  I also don't care about your opinion

Ebay actually does have a minimum, if you think about it. You can't list an item for anything less than $.99.  That IS their minimum order. 

You are the one that is selling items for $.99, not ebay. Why not just sell items at the lowest prices that you are willing to sell items at? If $5 is your minimum, then don't sell anything under that. Ebay can't do everything for us.

After ebay fees, packaging and labor I lose money on single items below $5.00.  I have Items that have MSRPs, that's what I have to charge, if i charge more, i dont sell them.  So, no, I don't have more control over that because I would like a $5 minimum order, or, ebay doesn't charge me fees - and I can't do either of those things.
