Your items are waiting in carts ------- How do I STOP Ebay from sending annoying emails?

[heaprome3]

I keep getting emails from Ebay like:  
"Your items are waiting in carts, now make the sale."  or  "Eyes are on your items, now make the sale."     I have been getting these emails every other day.  I list my items at a the lowest price that I can with free shipping in order to make a small profit.  If I could lower the price, I would, but I can't.  I don't need or want Ebay sending me these annoying emails.  Any way to turn off these un-necessary emails?  I have checked the "settings", but I cannot find the correct setting to adjust.   Thanks for any information anyone can provide.

Best thing is just to delete them without bothering to look at them........ I think you can delete ALL communications in site preferences, but probably not a good idea........  No way to pick and choose which to receive.

We all get spam in our emails......no point in getting the blood pressure up......

My Site Preferences ... opted OUT of everything in an attempt to STOP the vomit

... and the ANNOYING eBay SPAM just keeps on comin'

Delete without opening and just smile at ebay's stupidity.  I'm a small seller and recognize ebay has become all about the buyer at the expense of the seller.  I strongly believe in great customer service and provide it by reasonable pricing, great packaging, super fast shipping, and resolution of any and all problems to the satisfaction of the customer.  I would never let a problem of any kind for the customer to have to be turned over to ebay resolution.  But that's not enough for ebay, all they want is the money from the seller in final value fees on both the item and shipping and the store fees.  All the while guaranteeing delivery dates and refunds for third party services the seller has no control over.  In the few years I have been a seller, small time as it is, ebay has become more like a tyrannical boss over independent sellers.  I didn't mean to go on a rant, but my point is, don't let ebay coerce you into lowering your prices or get under your skin.  It's not worth it.

@heaprome3  Raise your prices and delete the messages without opening them ...

[heaprome3]

Yes, I agree. I have been selling on Ebay for about 10 years, and it appears to me that they don't care about the small seller. Sad since the small sellers are the ones who put Ebay on the map. Seems like biting the hand that fed to me.

Thanks NewView,

I did not realize these settings were under account preferences. I unchecked the "promotions" "seller tips" etc. I think this might solve the problem.

I don't get the "Your items are waiting in carts" emails. I've had that site email preference unchecked for years (all the Promotions & Surveys options are unchecked)

But I still get them in eBay messages, and that can't be turned off.

You'll still get them in your Message Box ... just as annoying as email and you CAN'T turn them off.

Ebay ... the new Viagra / Nigerian 411 Spammers.

And with the WebInterupt Scammers they've gotten in bed with ... they're just as trustworthy.
