Hey iloveramen (Score 1)

iloveramen, I am a powers seller and have only sold 30 items in the last 3 months. Your rant is completely idiotic and without merit. Your saying all powersellers don't know how to use a computer (no communication), dumb (don't know what there selling), and slow (take forever to ship). Well I guess the 1500 + 100% feedbacks I got must be a bunch of bull S*** then and all those buyers didn't know what they are talking about. I am both a buyer and a seller (like most sellers) and we like to treat our customers like we would like to be treated. You have obviously never sold on eBay or you wouldn't be making such Ignorant Statements about powersellers or any seller. You may have had a few bad experiences with some sellers but to call all powersellers lazy, dumb, and slow!!! That would be like me calling all buyers con artists because they bid and then get buyers remorse and don't pay, or want a partial refund because it doesn't fit even though the exact dimensions were listed in the auction, or the buyer has a stolen account and uses a buy it now option on a $775 item then tries to pay with a stolen credit card through PayPal who doesn't catch it until the next day but doesn't let the seller know. All these things happened to me as a seller but I don't call all buyers con's because they aren't. I have a great time selling to the honest buyers, and by the way I list my auctions with detailed descriptions and magnified close up pictures from every angle. I contact the buyer as soon as the auction ends and when the package ships. I also ship the same or next day after payment is received if it is by PayPal or money order. This is all born out by my feedback. I've only left 4 neg's out of 1500+ and all were because of non-paying bidders. Several more deserved them but I just let it go the ones I did give were for warning to other sellers so they didn't get ripped off. If you don't think NPB's hurt a seller try again. For every NPB i get I lose about $20-$30 in premium listing fees, but eBay doesn't care because they get to keep that money. Again it is very obvious that you have never sold on eBay, if you had you would know that the boycott was not about powersellers but about all sellers. The smaller sellers like the ones you like to buy from are the ones that will be most impacted by these changes. That's what eBay wants' to get rid of the "flea market" style on eBay (these are the incoming CEO's words). Well, the small sellers like me are what made eBay and without them they will be just another Wal-Mart with shipping charges. They want to be like Amazon, well there's already one and they are growing faster then eBay. I hope you enjoy the new and improved eBay where you can leave neg feedback for little or no reason without even contacting the seller. You will find that there will be allot less choices and allot higher prices. By the way I would like to know what makes you think that this boycott was just about powersellers, all sellers from the smallest to the largest are pissed not just powersellers. If you would like to have a meaningful discussion about this I would be more than happy to accommodate you.
