<p>[QUOTE="GoodLife Auctions, post: 2862384, member: 90142"]Someone mentioned Sellers Handling time in a post above. That is always added by eBay in their arrival estimates. eBay penalized us for not meeting estimated ship times a few years back. When we audited the prior 3 months we found that auctions that ended on Fridays were the culprit. We don't pack and ship on weekends so we were having some items arriving 1-2 days past eBay's estimate. We now state a 3-day handling policy and have built that into our shipping profiles. Problem solved except for those few that demand they receive their items faster than possible.</p><p><br /></p><p>Of course, now eBay discourages buyers and sellers from having a conversation about anything and that will probably include negotiating a better rate for faster shipments.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
