Well this is a big crock of shit. Despite being in my opinion, a great ebay seller. I am now going to get "lowered placements in search and may even face limits on selling activity"
Let me be clear, I don't sell loads of stuff on ebay, really it's just a way to make some cash on gear I don't us anymore. However whenever I do sell I put in a great amount of effort, describing items well, answering questions quickly, dispatching as soon as I can and packing like an absolute demon to insure nothing gets damaged in transit. All of my detailed seller ratings are rated at 4.5-5.0
But because I don't sell too many things, one buyer who's had a beef with my P&P charges has caused my percentage of DSR's of 1 or 2 for that to go to 5.88%. Over the 4% threshold.
This really pisses me off as, like I said before, I pack items up VERY well, and I only charge what it costs for the postage (normally next day courier) I don't add on extra like some do to cover ebay and paypal fee's. If it costs £10 to send then I charge £10 postage. I charge nothing for what is sometimes hours of effort packing up a mixing desk or guitar amp, and nothing even for the materials to do it with! Just the courier cost.
I can understand ebay wanting to make sure everyone gets a good buying experience, but because I've only sold 17 items this year, one person has now fucked up my rating and is going to make selling anything on ebay that little bit harder for me.
Bastards.
