I often receive items from vendors with label affixed directly to item
box, so I ship that way for unusually shaped/larger items. I received
feedback from one customer that boxed would be preferred. With so much
porch stealing, I agree but it sure ha...
I know the trolls (, shills and employees) will just say to give
positive feedback for pay (just part of the broken system) but I think
I'm just done with it. I've tried everything from waiting till they
receive (to remind them), trying to contact to...
How often do you actually see/get 'switcharoos?' People complain about
it, and hopefully most sellers know of this possible risk, but 1) how do
you protect yourself, knowing this? and 2) how/when do/have you seen it?
Buyer claims to have received different item than I sent, and sent me
photo of different (model) item that I sent and comparison to photo is
obvious to me, and item was inspected upon sending...what do I do? If I
confront, I lose, if I refund, I lose...
Sent me a note, with pic, but even the pic is different than item I sent
(which was inspected and photographed) but we know calling them out
ticks them off and we further know that ebay will side with them
regardless (it's not their money). Do I wait...
It also tells me they are full of it (if they get nasty). I admit I've
gotten triggered by a couple concerned replies, thinking they were just
attempting to exploit, but they were calm and just concerned, but
everything worked out. Turns out they wer...
I agree with the previous message about frugality and paranoia, but we
survive. The easy answer and possibly most reasonable, even from
business standpoint is to just kick back a few bucks - BUT, THIS is
exactly what some seek. It's like the buyers i...
I found it less expensive to use a flat piece of colored cardboard
purchased for display and form into box than to buy a box. The original
box would have shipped fine, but the box I made was solid color, so it
looked like a gift in case that's what i...
So you've fabricated your own boxes? I'm about to do that, which I've
done before. Buying odd sized boxes is a lot of trouble around here,
since the one good true shipper closed. Now we only have have big retail
shippers and clerks who don't get it, ...
I appreciate your resourcefulness and attempt to reuse, but the risk far
outweighs finding the right buyer in here. Locals may take it for free,
like Craigslist, Facebook ore Trashnothing. If inclined, you ought to
strip out the good parts, label the...
