Most Recent Posts Point somehow missed a time or twoPosted Feb-18-08 18:34:49 PST On my previous posts I think some points were missed.
I did pay the high shipping even after I found out it was too high (after the auctions where finished by the way) I can take my lumps, no biggy.
The problem arises after the fact.
I gave them positives but did say shipping was too high. I mean way too high.
It cost them 9 bucks to send flat rate (free ebay box, you guys know the drill)
They charged me (even after negotiation, but only slightly) 25.00
Fine, I can handle it. My mistake.
But shouldn't I say to potential new buyers, be careful with shipping? It was still a positive for gods sake.
Then they leave me negatives? Not cool and not business like. Honesty right? Was I not honest to say the shipping was too high? They DID NOT state it in the ads. They stated they combine. I took my lumps like I said.
But new buyers shouldn't have to.
And I'm just glad this didn't happen on my bigger more important account with my art.
Grr. Follow up with my earlier post of crooked sellersPosted Feb-18-08 17:42:37 PST I've had a small amount of conversation with the seller and they will not withdraw the negative feedback left to me. Never mind they are mean spirited and don't like to be called on their crooked business practice of charging astronomical shipping fees.
I left three positives stating item as described, shipping too high. They retaliated with three negatives. Then just said good luck dealing with eBay, almost knowing nothing will be done. I've reported this...we'll see where it goes. I'm very unhappy that this can even happen.
Details of the transaction etc are on the previous post to this blog.
Buyers, be very very careful! :-( Bad apples out there. Super High Shipping and then retalitory feedbackPosted Feb-18-08 13:09:30 PST You know what? I'm getting so irritated with mean nasty people out there that leave retalitory feedback for no reason at all. Mean.
I bought three items in the last few weeks. I paid for them immeadiately but asked first, hey...can you combine shipping? I mean really...I've been on eBay for years and know the game (my other account heather-sky-studio, where I sell my original art) and have really worked hard to make sure that I am commiserate with current shipping costs. Most of the time I've eaten the difference and under charged.
So here I have this other account. I buy some goods, pay for them right away. I leave a postitive feedback to the seller, though warn other potential buyers of high shipping costs and no real break. They sent me the package for flat shipping at 9 dollars and charged me 25.
Then they come back and leave me three negatives!!??? WOW!
Let me get this straight:
I buy their goods
I ask for combine shipping they will only give me 5 off
Ok, I pay for it right away
I get the package wow, it's 9 bucks not the 25 I paid
I leave a POSITIVE feedback, with warning of high shipping.
Then I get three NEGATIVES.
Does this seem retalitory to you guys? I mean wow...I'm kinda bummed.
*sigh*
Thanks for reading this far. I guess there isn't much I can do but warn people to be very very careful. VERY very careful.
Did I make the point yet to be really aware...and careful.
I think I'll go get another cup of coffee and walk my dogs. Zone down and relax or something. Sheesh.
Yep, I'm a packratPosted Jan-14-08 21:27:45 PST I'm so totally a packrat that even I finally need to admit it. Darn it anyway. So out side of my store for selling my art http://stores.ebay.com/Heather-Sky-Studio-Gallery I'm going to open a new one to sell all the other cool stuff I have...that I don't really want to sell. :-( Like tonight I've listed the first of the things I put together today. I did have a desert set of china that I put back and just couldn't list. Not quite ready to let it go. But I will have a ton of neat, collectible and high quality "stuff" (nicer than what my husband calls it) up over the next few weeks. A little funny for those who like some humor....when I was researching what to use as search terms for my "stuff" here already on eBay I was having a really hard time because I wanted just about everything I saw! I have it bad. This is tough, I think I'm addicted or something. *sigh* Ok, well here we are. I'm starting a new journey. Humph... |
