Dealing with lost USPS parcels is better than any other mail service...

Partly posting because of the thread that was here recently about USPS being a third world postal service. I say that isn't so. With USPS, when items are lost, there's an online form to fill out, the recipients postal office is notified, usually they...

Why is management running eBay into the ground?

I have been an eBay seller for 25 years. I could be wrong, but I do not think there is a single person in upper management who has been at eBay for as long as I have been a seller. And for at least 15 or so of those years, I have been eBay's flagship...

Sellers Beware!

June 25th I had a buyer request a return after a week of having an item. They said they "didn't like it" and it was clear it was buyers remorse. Whatever, I wait for the item to be shipped back. eBay gives this buyer until the 9th to ship it, and so ...

Just some New Listing Tool Rant stuff

I am slowly becoming a former jewelry seller, thanks to a number of factors. The new listing tool (that is SO apt - tool) isn't helping. Not looking for help; I just needed to rant for a minute. Maybe if I'm lucky someone from eBay will actually read...
