We have very low prices on our clothing, because we don't sell much nor are we rich, we can only afford the basic store package. We didn't have any sales for almost 6 months but a eBayer gave us a couple of suggestions and we followed them and are making more sales. We averaged our prices made them as low as possible but still make a few bucks and listed them with free shipping. So here we have a $60 blouse and it is for sale for $16.99, then we made a special promotional offer of 10% off so the item is now for $15.29.
Then in comes an offer $12. The item is heavy so our minimum shipping cost is $7.02, more if further away. Take that out and we have an Item that cost us $4 plus tax we make less than a dollar on the sale. It seems they don't consider the cost of free shipping for us in not free and to accept their offer is over half the cost they offered. Then we drive out to the bulk clothing auctions bid on NWT bundles and after Gas, our Time and a small not even what stores mark their Items up at, which is 30%. We have to buy labels, envelopes, boxes drive it to the post office and they want us to do it for 80 cents.
These offers are ridiculous and we should never have to even do them. I will take the make offer button off of my ads because it is a waste when people want us to pay for an Item to give it to them for a $1.
