I have the feeling of being trapped since 3 years ago i decided to try my luck at working on Ebay selling items full time. 3 years ago with little work i was able to make sales of $1000 usd per month. Eaby then claims to take 30-40% of my sales revenue as a commision for them selves. They have not worked 24/7 maintaining the sales and dealing with every customers whims. Even when the are rude customers who lie cheat and steal my merchandise and return other items not at all what i sent them. Then the sides with me the seller in a situation where the customers who bought an item from me for $60, then makes a claim that i sent something else. This has happened and the claim the goes to ebay, Based on our experience Ebay decided that i am correct and i get the decision in my favor, yet ebay refuses to protect me from hurtful negative feedback that the customers who lies and stealing have already caused the problem. I hope to find this situation cleared up and ended, but no the customer them claims he is CIA and i will get mine for liying to them. This is pure abuse and threatening. Of course this customer then puts a negative feedback in my account the first i have had this year in regard to anytin from usa. Even when they already recieved my item, swicthed it and return to me something else.
This is called customer abuse but it nothing compared to the abuse that ebay is doing to me. Like holding us sellers to un maintainable standards. No matter how many customer i have over 2 peoples low 1 or 2 star rating on any of 5 aspects of the sales transaction gets me removed from the top rated seller program. So it takes 2-4 week for packages to arrive via registered mail. Customer says thats too long but that the standard and i get peniolzed.
They final straw. is this past few months sales are very low, yet fees remain the same. I made about $700 in average sales but my fees at still $300. Now ebay sends me something saying i need to pay the federal govt 25% of the revenue of which they have claim 50%. They never added in the post office shipping fees to subtract, which is $200, I have one part time employee who i pays $3-400 per month. and i being i have a masters degree would like to make something for the 24/7 time i spend yet nothing is left, in fact i may be just giving ebay funds to work overtime for them. This is obvious a reason why ebay is like slavery. I am trapped, with an income that is taken away before i get it and what is left is taken by the govt in lui of tax for services not provided.
THis is the most stupid system in the world, where is the watch dog for this, HELP!
