I made the decision to list the bulk of my inventory on my website around the 
time MPB started. It has worked very well since then. I still keep a store on 
eBay but if it all becomes too hard I can easily move everything to my site and 
work from my website. 

You have done a great job with MPB and many other dealers have moved away from 
eBay and developed successful websites. The point of my original post is that 
eBay could have retained this business if they had looked after their sellers.

  I happily left ebay in 2005 (before even Bruce did) in 2006 I bought MPB
  it was one of the smartest things I have done in the last 10 years.
  at the time I encouraged people to join me.
  no one wanted to come.

Its all a bit mystifying. One minute they are encouraging people to open 
stores, the next they want you to go to auctions. Feedback and ratings don't 
mean as much as they used to. You now have to prove that you ship within one 
day and load tracking details if you are to maintain Top Seller status. That 
way you stay high in the searches but for sellers outside the US it is very 
difficult to load tracking details because they are not the same as USPS. 
 
Bruce made a great decision to leave eBay some years ago. I agree with him 
that the rules and regulations would make it very difficult for him to operate 
these days. 
 
I feel that eBay could have had far more success by making it easier for 
sellers to stay with them. A huge number of sellers have transferred their 
business to websites - many with great success. eBay has lost that market and 
will never be able to regain it.

I really believe it all has to do with how much money you're pulling in 
for eBay.  A few months ago, when my numbers went south, they started nailing 
me with B.S. that had never happened before.  If you make them their money, 
they'll leave you alone and give you the perks...if you don't... then axe comes 
down.

  Bunch of mealy-mouthed scoundrels as far as I'm concerned.  They don't 
give a good goddam if you have 12,000 positive feedbacks and rate 100%...once 
the sales slump off, they go for the throat...

2012-09-01 Thread Rix Posterz 
Don't the rules of eBay state that the seller isn't required to pay for the 
 return postage?  I sure hope you let the seller know you're going to leave 
 negative feedback if they don't agree to pay the cost of returning the  
merchandise.  The only negative feedback I've ever received is due to  
miscommunication with the buyer.  Instead of contacting me immediately,  
stating 
their complaint and working everything out in terms of the return of the  item 
and the refund...they just automatically leave a negative feedback,  
thinking that's the way it works on eBay.  That is not the  way it works on 
eBay. 
Unfortunately, eBay is so buyer-oriented that there's  virtually no recourse 
against some a--hole buyer who doesn't follow  eBay's rules...

Leaving  a seller negative feedback puts you at risk of getting negative 
buyer  feedback  -- even when they sell you defective items they pick up at a  
garage sale or thrift store and refuse to pay for return shipping.  


My  solution -- my buying and selling account are separate so that on my 
selling  account, feedback is 100% positive. 



I  leave all buyers positive feedback -- if they pay -- because I believe a 
buyer  paying is what keeps the game going.

hi, i definitely agree that sellers should buy for  return shipping when 
they mess up , that's an option when you sell on ebay ,  all my auctions have 
the option " seller pays return shipping "  

But then  some days ago i had this buyer who received a  vinyl record (NEAR 
MINT) but contacts me to say it has a big scratch and  he wants me to 
refund him 50% ...  as i know for 100% sure my record was  near mint with no 
scratch it's clear that this buyer wants to get his item for  half price (with 
how many sellers did he have this work as many sellers don't  want negative 
feedback etc...)  i tell him : not happy , return for full  refund , i pay 
your return postage too , well , he refused , opened a case  with ebay and 
left me negative feedback , pissed off because his scam didn't  work with me .  

I advise all sellers to beware of these  'not in the  condition as 
mentioned so partial refund   please '  scams , go for a full refund after 
return so 
these losers  calm down on ripping off sellers .  filip , runbuffy on ebay

Ah, Bruce... but that is because there are so many dishonest  sellers out 
there -- both on ebay and off ebay. 



Its  unfortunate that good sellers have to get lumped in with the bad, but 
the $$$  which makes everything run -- including ebay -- is the buyer.  So 
ebay's  protection of the buyer is what's allowed ebay to maintain it's 
profits and  grow. 


As  someone who buys a lot off ebay because I live  rural and can't find 
what  I want locally, I shop on ebay. I've bought things like new Ugg boots &  
gotten 2 left sides -- yes, you read that correctly. Two sides of the same  
foot!!! To get my money back, I have to pay for shipping.  Also defective 
items. So it cost me to shop on  ebay.



If  a buyer is shipped the wrong or defective item, why in the world do we 
have to  bear the burden of paying for return shipping? 



If  ebay was really pro-buyer, things like defective items returns shipping 
cost  or not as described return shipping cost would not come out of the 
buyer's  pocket but the sellers. 


That  would certainly eliminate a lot of bad sellers.



Whether  you sell on an ebay auction or run an off-ebay auction site, there 
is still a  lot of dishonesty. In fact, out-right thievery.


We  have had more $$$ stolen from us from one of many of your favorite 
auction  sites, Heritage, and believe even with ebay's fees, it's far better to 
sell on  ebay than risk losing your inventory in Heritage's shady inventory  
procedures.

Leaving  a seller negative feedback puts you at risk of getting negative 
buyer  feedback  -- even when they sell you defective items they pick up at a  
garage sale or thrift store and refuse to pay for return shipping.  


My  solution -- my buying and selling account are separate so that on my 
selling  account, feedback is 100% positive. 



I  leave all buyers positive feedback -- if they pay -- because I believe a 
buyer  paying is what keeps the game going.

hi, i definitely agree that sellers should buy for  return shipping when 
they mess up , that's an option when you sell on ebay ,  all my auctions have 
the option " seller pays return shipping "  

But then  some days ago i had this buyer who received a  vinyl record (NEAR 
MINT) but contacts me to say it has a big scratch and  he wants me to 
refund him 50% ...  as i know for 100% sure my record was  near mint with no 
scratch it's clear that this buyer wants to get his item for  half price (with 
how many sellers did he have this work as many sellers don't  want negative 
feedback etc...)  i tell him : not happy , return for full  refund , i pay 
your return postage too , well , he refused , opened a case  with ebay and 
left me negative feedback , pissed off because his scam didn't  work with me .  

I advise all sellers to beware of these  'not in the  condition as 
mentioned so partial refund   please '  scams , go for a full refund after 
return so 
these losers  calm down on ripping off sellers .  filip , runbuffy on ebay

Ah, Bruce... but that is because there are so many dishonest  sellers out 
there -- both on ebay and off ebay. 



Its  unfortunate that good sellers have to get lumped in with the bad, but 
the $$$  which makes everything run -- including ebay -- is the buyer.  So 
ebay's  protection of the buyer is what's allowed ebay to maintain it's 
profits and  grow. 


As  someone who buys a lot off ebay because I live  rural and can't find 
what  I want locally, I shop on ebay. I've bought things like new Ugg boots &  
gotten 2 left sides -- yes, you read that correctly. Two sides of the same  
foot!!! To get my money back, I have to pay for shipping.  Also defective 
items. So it cost me to shop on  ebay.



If  a buyer is shipped the wrong or defective item, why in the world do we 
have to  bear the burden of paying for return shipping? 



If  ebay was really pro-buyer, things like defective items returns shipping 
cost  or not as described return shipping cost would not come out of the 
buyer's  pocket but the sellers. 


That  would certainly eliminate a lot of bad sellers.



Whether  you sell on an ebay auction or run an off-ebay auction site, there 
is still a  lot of dishonesty. In fact, out-right thievery.


We  have had more $$$ stolen from us from one of many of your favorite 
auction  sites, Heritage, and believe even with ebay's fees, it's far better to 
sell on  ebay than risk losing your inventory in Heritage's shady inventory  
procedures.

auction...


Plus, a lot of high end items have sold at a BIN auction

Of course, the 50K items does not apply to us because we are selling vintage

Hi MoPoers
eBay currently has a promotion running where many sellers have been offerred
up to 50,000 free auction listings for about nine days up until Aug 31. This
has resulted in some sellers flooding the site with cheap repros and
reprints. The crazy thing is that the offer has been sent "by invitation
only" and it seems to have been done at random. Store sellers are not
eligible so anyone who has a store would be seeing a big drop in sales while
this promotion is on.
 
Just curious as to whether any MoPo members received the invitation to list
50,000 items on auction.
Regards
John

[MOPO] MUSEUM OF MOM AND POP CULTURE HITS 10,000 POSITIVE FEEDBACKS!

2012-09-01 Thread Alan Adler 
Howdy all!

I don't have to tell you the hoops my patient wife of 27 years, Susan, and I 
have jumped through to have now reached 10K positive feedbacks on Ebay with 
zero negative hits.
We are a true Mom and Pop business - it's just been the 2 of us all along, 
scrabbling over how best to pack a delicate window card or talk sense to an 
insane customer.
Right here and now I want to thank Susan in the greater public of our humble 
forum for rolling up her sleeves and playing in my sandbox.
Without her support I would have had to hand over the selling of my collection 
to someone else and miss all the fun of saying goodbye to each and every piece!

The feedbacks say we accurately grade, we're easily to deal with, give good 
deals, pack incredibly well, send promptly, and sell some often rare, but 
always fun stuff with something for everyone in mind.

We've made a lot of friends and a great many of them are among the ranks of 
MOPO - a group for which I am constantly amazed at their knowledge and opinions 
- both of which you folks give with nothing held back.  I also think movie 
poster collectors are funny as hell and I often crack up reading your posts.   

Movie paper people are a funny lot - maybe its the old ink that runs in our 
bloodstreams that sets us apart.
I think of poster collecting as more of a religion than a hobby, though.
That's what feeds my continuing respect for paper and those that handle it.
It's been a very special life's work disseminating the material I acquired as a 
child and putting it into the hands of another generation to take care of it 
before they pass it on again.

So, thanks for all the support - and crazy as it is - We'll keep selling on 
Ebay until I get it together to launch my own site.
Keep watching the skies - we've been noodling it.

And if anyone wants to sniff out our current auctions -
There's about 500 of them at any one time -
And about a hundred or more closing right now this fine Saturday morning.

Just follow the link below -
Bid with Confidence - and Enjoy!

And thanks again for all the support!

Re: [MOPO] eBay free listings

Ah, Bruce... but that is because there are so many dishonest sellers out there 
-- both on ebay and off ebay. 


Its unfortunate that good sellers have to get lumped in with the bad, but the 
$$$ which makes everything run -- including ebay -- is the buyer.  So ebay's 
protection of the buyer is what's allowed ebay to maintain it's profits and 
grow. 

As someone who buys a lot off ebay because I live  rural and can't find what I 
want locally, I shop on ebay. I've bought things like new Ugg boots & gotten 2 
left sides -- yes, you read that correctly. Two sides of the same foot!!!To get 
my money back, I have to pay for shipping. Also defective items. So it cost me 
to shop on ebay.


If a buyer is shipped the wrong or defective item, why in the world do we have 
to bear the burden of paying for return shipping? 


If ebay was really pro-buyer, things like defective items returns shipping cost 
or not as described return shipping cost would not come out of the buyer's 
pocket but the sellers. 

That would certainly eliminate a lot of bad sellers.


Whether you sell on an ebay auction or run an off-ebay auction site, there is 
still a lot of dishonesty. In fact, out-right thievery.

We have had more $$$ stolen from us from one of many of your favorite auction 
sites, Heritage, and believe even with ebay's fees, it's far better to sell on 
ebay than risk losing your inventory in Heritage's shady inventory procedures.

I am waiting for eBay to offer to PAY sellers to list items, and even then I 
would have to think long and hard about listing there.

I know some people love it, but it is not my cup of tea. They have added so 
many anti-seller rules that I would be petrified after every sale, both that I 
might be scammed out of my poster, and that the buying might leave bad feedback 
for me and restrict my account.
