Rant!

[glorybells]

Sorry, guys, but this is a rant about a PITA buyer.  I sold two items to a buyer late last Friday.  We had a weekend, followed by a postal holiday yesterday.  This morning I get an irate message from the buyer wanting to know why her items haven’t been shipped yet!!!  I couldn’t believe it!  I don’t know what she expected me to do, but when this is concluded, she’s going on my BBL, although I have considered just cancelling the transaction and putting her on my BBL NOW, because if she’s already griping about the shipping, who knows what other problems she’ll cause!

I had a potential buyer message me on Saturday evening asking if I would add priority on an item because they needed it fast plus they needed an invoice.  I messaged back and pointed out that priority was already an option and  I would be glad to include the invoice they requested.  I then said it would go out Tuesday because Monday was a holiday.  Crickets...no sale.  Not my fault I can't ship on Monday!  Also not my fault that priority is expensive--more than the price of the item they wanted (book with free media mail shipping).

I know the postal service works differently in  different cities.

In my city they deliver packages on Sundays.

Ours too. They're allowed to work deliveries on Sundays in order to cut down on the pile that they'll otherwise have to deliver on Monday.

Just print a label when the item is paid for and it will send them a shipped message

I hate refunds and rude customers too. What's bbl mean exactly

This is a thread from 2021...

That said, BBL refers to Blocked Buyer List (or as some refer to it here, Best Buddy List).
