ship every order from my website or E-Bay parcel with a tracking number, so I
alrady comply with the E-Bay edict. Howerever, count me as one who has grown
weary with the litanty of language that now constitutes the E-Bay "seller's
agreement".
I'm still miffed that they can dictate the shipping fees in certain categories,
then cut themselves in for a slice of that pie as well.
Anticipating this E-Bay move, I stopped shipping overseas almost a year ago.
Best,

I think I was told at the Post Office it costs an extra $11.95 for an
international tracking number. Does that sound right?

if you get your postage at Paypal, tracking #'s are free for priority mail
not sure if it is for first class or not
but everyone should use tracking numbers anyway

Hi, Everyone,
I just received notification from eBay that as of June 1st, all packages
sent out by Sellers will be required
to have a tracking number...all packages. Even some guy in Podunk U.S.A.
who sends out 100 packages a day, each one containing a near-worthless trinket
he's sold for 50 cents as of June 1st will be forced by the powers-that-be at
eBay to spend 70 cents extra per package to the Post Office for a friggin'
tracking number.
Let's see...that'll only cost Mr. Seller from Podunk an extra 70 bucks a
day...and the trinket he's sending out is only worth 50 cents!
I don't know if other sellers agree with me, but I think eBay is truly
crossing the line here. It's one thing if they raise their rates (which
they've done many times). I can begrudgingly accept that. But to issue me a
decree that I must provide a tracking number to them for every package I ship
as of June 1st makes me think that eBay is getting to be more and more like Big
Brother every day. I'd like to hear if other sellers on eBay agree with me or
not. If you do agree, I'd suggest you give eBay a call and let them know what
you think about it. I just got off the phone after making a call to eBay. The
airhead on the other end was obviously lock-step with eBay's latest "plan". Of
course, in their email they emphasize how many rewards
they plan to give us as sellers, treating us like a bunch of imbeciles who
aren't fully aware of how transparent
their B.S. has become. Hey, you can dip a turd in chocolate and cover it
with a rainbow of sprinkles, but it's still a friggin' turd. (Sorry about such
a crude metaphor, but as you can tell, I'm not pleased with this...)
