Suspicious FF, thoughts?

[robbie31415]

So I'm selling the same item on 2 accounts.

Before you say that's not allowed. It most certainly is.

I purchased the items from the same company my business buys from and I sell on my personal account. No reason I can't sell as a side hustle, just because the business I manage sells the same items. (Just don't tell them, I'm cheaper than them ;))

Anyways, A FF customer purchased 1 from both accounts. Even though both accounts have 20% discount if you buy 2.

IDK I find it suspicious that they purchased the more expensive one while they were aware of my cheaper one and they could have saved 20%.

Mmmm. IDK.

It certainly is not. Here's the policy:

[ebooksdiva]

Did the buyer pay? 
If yes, then ship!

Why would you care how much they paid? More money for you right? So what if they didn't take the discount, no big deal!

Sorry, you are wrong.

1) They aren't -IDENTICAL-, it's not the exact same item. And 2, it's not the same seller on multiple user names.

It's 1) an incorporated business selling an item. and 2) an employee selling on their personal account.

Do you really think a Best Buy employee can't sell something they got from work, simply because Best Buy sells those items on eBay?

[robbie31415]

Oh, I shipped.

I just find it suspicious and they have very high negative feedback left rate.

They got a hold of my little 5 feedback personal account. -.-

Ebay won't do anything about duplicate listings from just one selling account, doubt they catch 2 separate accounts or do anything either.

He is not 'wrong' - he is just showing you the relevant Ebay policy.

...except that in your own words you said 'I'm selling the same item on two accounts' - so either it is or is not the same item.

Maybe you meant to say that you have two units available and are selling one in each of two different accounts?

[robbie31415]

You right, I worded that incorrectly, but the intention was clear later on.

The business has a quantity over 1,000. I have a quantity of 10. 🙂

It's not the same 'seller' which is before the part they underlined. 

Me as a person, is not a business.

Since the actual seller is not the same, it's not a duplicate.

Also, simply because it's the same, doesn't mean it's a duplicate. If it were, every single person selling the same UPC item would be 'duplicates'.

The whole intention of the policy is so sellers don't create multiple accounts to sell the same items.

As I already clarified, that isn't what is happening.

I purchased the items from the same company my business buys from and I sell on my personal account. 

So you are not selling it on two accounts.

You are selling it on your account, and the business you work for is selling it on their account. 

[robbie31415]

Yes, I admitted to wording that incorrectly.

I bought 10 at discount from the company for a side hustle.

     Not much information to work with and this appears to be a posting ID since there are no sold, or listed items on this account. What do you mean by FF? Were both of the purchases made at about the same time? Is the ship to address the same for both buyers? When was the buyer account created? Is it possible that these are two separate purchases by the same person using two guest accounts shipping as gifts to two different addresses? 

     What were/are the items, what was the selling price? Are these high targets for scammers? What is your return policy? 

[stainlessenginecovers]

Side hustling off your employer.  What could go wrong....

Speaking of Best Buy, as an employee- I could buy things for 'cost plus 5%'. Do you have any idea what a printer cable that sells for $25 in the store cost an employee? About .80c. 

[robbie31415]

Yes, they both have same destination address to Doral FL to a FF.

Ebay logs that the orders came with a 1 minute difference. One order at 2:51 and the other at 2:52.

My personal account is 30 day free

Business account is 60 day free.

Item is $79.99 from business (gaming mechanical keyboard)

I'm undercutting the business by 5% selling at $75.99

Both accounts offer 20% volume discount.

The buyer account has over 100 feedback, so it's not guest. Account created in 2022.
