| I think banning someone from using the classifieds for negative feedback in any amount would be wrong. I'm sure someone is bound not to be happy with a deal even after looking over an item and asking questions and getting exactly what was described. I sell some items on ebay. I always put in my ads pictures and tell people to ask questions so they know what they will be getting because all sales are final. New items aren't usually a problem, but used items are a problem. You describe it the best you can, but the person buying may not fully understand the details given or choose not to ask questions. Then decide they want to return it after knowing it says all sales are final. On occasion I take some of these items back, but I expect the other person to eat the shipping both ways. Like it has been said before. There are plenty of tools available to check someone out who has been selling here on runryder. On big ticket items, I suggest getting whole name, address, and phone number and call and talk to them. Follow good business practices too. If you haven't dealth with them before, get the money first, then ship. Once money is received ship promptly or notify the person when item is to be shipped. Buyers ask specific questions. Sellers answer those questions honestly. And remember always leave feedback whether you are the buyer or the seller so that others may know how that person is to deal with.
Man, I miss the eighties. |
