I found a few auctions regarding websites for sale. I have questions to ask. None of the sellers respond. I noticed they all residents of the United States, which I am too. That is the problem with America, respect and lack of communication is lost. I was raised to answer all questions, as no question is a stupid question. People wonder why businesses are struggling? Look in the mirror before you complain.

Most of those sellers say they are in the U.S., which I highly doubt. Buying a website to drop ship on Ebay is probably not a good business decision.

Who says i am looking for a drop ship website? I sure did not. I was looking for a design for my current site.

Oh.
"I found a few auctions regarding websites for sale" "I have questions to ask".
05-03-2020 03:12 PM
Yes, but not drop ship stuff.
05-03-2020 03:15 PM
Well, good..I stand corrected.

How long ago did you ask a question? Some sellers don't work wkends. Others are so big they can't handle all the questions that come in..........other times, sellers won't both to answer questions they feel are already answered in the listings.
While I agree with what you say............that legitimate questions should be answered.....there is something to be said as also understanding that not everyone conducts business in the same way we think they should.
Best thing to do is simply not buy from those you don't approve of......as you say, they will fail if their business model doesn't work......

I asked my questions between 4-10 days ago. I use to manage apartment buildings in LA. I would show units, deal with tenant issues and answer 20-50 emails a day. Even a simple response shows class, "Hello, I received your message. I am busy right now. I will get back to you in a few days."

Something I would love to see more of in society....class 👍🏻 No laws against having it but if it were to become unlawful to have, folks would then want to possess it. 😒

That's a pretty sweeping generalization. I would say that when I ask a question, 95% of US sellers answer.

Walk the talk.
Your initial post is unclear. No context. No clear question.
You are confrontational with a poster who filled in these blanks with an assumption.
Finally, you end the thread by describing a personal accomplishment with no parallel to the situation of selling on ebay.
Maybe your questions sounded like you were someone who no one would want to communicate with.
The solution is what you wrote, "look in the mirror. "

Now, if they could just legislate class as well as they do entitlement, the world would be a more polite place.

Well, you know, details, details, details. 😁

If i ask a question and it goes unanswered, i already know that seller may not be someone i want to do business with. So i move along knowing there is a broad spectrum of folks selling here. From the very professional to the utter dolts, if you will pardon the expression. The great thing about eBay is that there are always plenty of sellers to choose from.
