<p>[QUOTE=&quot;coolhandred, post: 2255729, member: 73341&quot;]I have been selling on eBay since the beginning, and have over 200 items listed in my store at the moment.&nbsp; Have I dealt with bad buyers?&nbsp; Yup.&nbsp; Have I gotten stuck?&nbsp; Yup.&nbsp;&nbsp; Does eBay treat sellers fairly?&nbsp; Nope.&nbsp; Is there anything a seller can do about it?&nbsp; Very little.&nbsp; These are the facts of life when you sell on eBay.</p><p><br /></p><p>But I treat all buyers like I want to be treated and I feel over 98% are good folks.&nbsp; It is the 2% that drive a seller nuts.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>The problem is eBay does not understand the dynamics of selling collectibles.&nbsp; I sell coins, numismatic books, postcards, golden and silver age comics, advertising, rare stamps, fine art, ephemera etc.&nbsp; I have to find the items, research the items, clearly describe the items including condition, take a photo(s) of the item and create a unique listing for the item.</p><p><br /></p><p>I can not reorder my items, drop ship or third party sell the inventory.&nbsp; I never sell used cell phones, fake sunglasses, vitamins, or counterfeit sports jerseys etc.&nbsp; However, eBay treats all sellers equally, and the numb skulls they employ have no idea what the heck is at issue.</p><p><br /></p><p>When I encounter a difficult customer I block him.&nbsp; That is the only recourse, and my blocked customer list is quite long.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>Ebay is already encountering a push back from sellers, and listings are flagging.&nbsp; Maybe one of these days the powers that be at eBay will finally start to actually listen to the sellers of collectibles.&nbsp; But I am not holding my breath, and I am listing 5 items tonight.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
