What is wrong with this platform called eBayy?

[ony_chine]

I cannot stand any entity failing in their duties, when can eBay rise? I cannot be paying for store subscription without anything to show for it. This platform is becoming a joke. Ebay is calling for people to connect, what are we connecting for? For an emotional talk show, I guess. This Platform is parasitic, I have never benefitted anything from here. This Platform is not performing but you got the boldness to be calling for sellers to connect, y'all are comedians. Some people will soon jump out to start telling me about business strategy, thank you in advance, keep your advice to yourself if you are one of those eBay back door sellers. I want real people to comment, not jokers

[ony_chine]

I can practically, prove it to you that I have never benefited anything from eBay, other than a gift of new eBay policy, new policy after the other

[ony_chine]

Then eBay should stop charging for the store, why will they give me a store which does not add tangible value, but they know how to go and deduct the money for store subscription from my account.

[ony_chine]

I can certainly do better because I got the Will, the compassion and the competence to do so, please stop pretending.  I am doing everything I can do on my own side, but eBay is not doing their own. There is no single advice from eBay that I have not implemented either now or in the past, what eBay does is once you respond to their never-ending advice, they will throw some little crumbs for you on the floor for few days and lock up; the next time you will hear from eBay is a new policy and a new advice. What makes you 'all handlers not to sit down and create a holistic pathway for eBay instead of all these short-term productions? It is simply because you are not compassionate, many of you don't know what it takes for some sellers to do what they do on eBay, all you know is to roll out policies

Take your boots & shoes and go elsewhere then.

"I cannot be paying for store subscription without anything to show for it." - You chose to do that, not eBay. With the amount of the listings you have, you do not need a store subscription. I know these forums are filled with under 100 people that constantly say that eBay is dieing, sales are slow etc... But when you look at those stores, they are horrible. I say this over and over and over again and I already know I'm gonna have some reply otherwise lol but you NEED to be selling stuff that people WANT or NEED and you have to have a good listing, title, keywords, keyword placement, photos, good return policy, price, making sure you are utilizing all of the eBays tools, promoted listings(if applicable, you do NOT need to promote to get sales) etc....

If you want to get all of the money all of the time then don't expect to get all of the sales all of the time. If your selling in a category with a slow sell thru rate, don't expect to get sales all of the time. Hell I have over 1600 items in my store and only had 5 sales yesterday but I could care less because sales will always go up and down. It's the law of averages at the end of the day.

As my grandmother, when I was a little boy, often admonished me, IF you don't like the peaches, don't shake the tree.

@ony_chine  Please describe the holistic pathway you would create if you were in charge of ebay. Thanks!

[ony_chine]

I will not give that free of charge, eBay should contact me. But on a general thought, eBay is a conglomerate of people, eBay can afford to make eBay happy, the Sellers happy and the buyers happy if they map out a strategy that is people oriented. That is the only way eBay can rub shoulders with Amazon.

[fern*wood]

Do you sell elsewhere with better results?

[my-cottage-books-and-antiques]

@ony_chine  This strategy would help you and your fellow sellers be happy, correct? If you were compassionate and people oriented, you would give it to ebay to benefit the people. Instead, you care only about your own short term gains? I am sorry to hear you are just like ebay: it is all about the money, and not compassion.

I had hoped you were different.

Oh well, back to work here.

[ony_chine]

Yes I do other businesses with better results. But I don't sell clothing/shoes elsewhere

[ony_chine]

If Im not compassionate, I will not talk about it. Most times I talk about eBay it's because I know eBay got huge potential which is untapped. I just dropped a hint

[my-cottage-books-and-antiques]

@ony_chine Your hint, whatever it may be, is obviously not enough. A compassionate seller would share his solution so all could benefit. We all know ebay has untapped potential. But only you know how to tap it, and you refuse to say. 

So here we are....so close to being better off, but you only care about getting paid for the information which could help us all.

Sad.

Ah, one of those guys! Thanks for the link.

[wrong66]

I'm afraid that's nonsense. Please provide a link to show that it's true.

[wrong66]

No. it's why would YOU pay for a store which does not add tangible value?
