oops hit send too soon..
Another thing with Paypal is a seller has no protection whatsoever on international shipments, since they do not confirm foreign addresses. One of Paypals requirements for shipping and to be protected is to ship to a confirmed address with a tracking number. Getting a tracking number for international shipping is almost impossible. Paypal will refund should a buyer complain within 30 days the he has not recieved the item if the seller cannot provide tracking.
-
You said it has been over a month and a half.. Right?? Paypal requires any complaints for non-receipt to be done within 30 days in January that increases to 45 days.
Wasn't there a strike going on involving the Canadian Customs?
-
My question though is what are you going to do when some newbie snipes the auction and wins it?? Not sell to them then you run a risk of being reported as a non-selling seller. Remember we all started at zero once(in fact I am starting over, stupid divorce..)
-
Bidders whose bids are cancelled by the seller are automatically banned from bidding on that item again anyway.
I don't think they are, I accidently canceled the wrong bidder on an item once and they were able to rebid when I emailed them with my mistake, you need to add him to your BBL to prevent future retaliation.

It shows to me as 99.9%

Makes me want to list my mystery NES and 2600 games I have here. Have one mystery 2600 game I got in a lot I bought have not checked it yet, I also have a NES game that came from the same lot that has the label ripped off.

I used to play the hell out of Yars Revenge, River Raid, Infiltrate, Gopher, Beserk and Vanguard.

How much electricity does a printer actually use??
Another thing to remember if you are running your Ebay sales as a business all your Ebay fees and Paypal fees are deductible on your tax forms. So is your shipping costs.
-
Sadly as long as it has been even though you paid through Paypal you may be SOL. Paypal gives you 30 days to file a complaint. The time on international shipping is funny, I have shipped items to Australia that take around a week and items into Europe that take 4 months. I generally only use air mail as it is cheaper than surface in most cases. Could be that it is in your country tied up in customs.

Two Tigers is it. Thanks..

I don't guess anyone else remembers it..

WRONG... IF you download it offline it is free through Paypal. If you load it directly off the USPS site it costs 13 cents and is free on priority mail. Normal DC on priority Mail is .45 and all other is .55

I just add the listing fees and a little extra to cover some of the paypal fees to my shipping and handling. Average shipping rate of a video game on Ebay is about 3.50 I charge 3.25. Which for one game breaks down as such:
Padded Envelope 18 to 25 cents(buy in bulk on Ebay 500 at a time)
Actual Shipping around 1.75
Deliver Confirmation Free
Ebay Fees .35
Paypal Fees .50
The remainder is misc. materials.

We discussed this topic in a discussion board on Ebay once, while a seller can put a minimum on what they will accept paypal on. Charging a surcharge for using Paypal is illegal in most states. You are allowed to give a discount for using other methods of payment but you cannot add a charge for using a certain method.

I remember when I was 8 or 9 playing a video game at the grocery store near my grandmothers house in Memphis. It was between 1982 and 1984. I remember you were in a plane and your object was to sink enemy ships. This was done by bombing them shooting mines at the bottom of the ship or causing enemy planes to crash into it. It was the only time I ever saw it . I know its not 1942 or 1943. It was not a scrolling game. Any ideas??
-
I sold my first item through Want it now yesterday. Could actually be a good idea as long as Ebay does not tinker it to death
-
Sniping is the only way I bid, 99% of the stuf on Ebay I bid on is for resale. Sniping reduces the threat of getting shilled. Since I do resell alot of what Ibuy I have attracted a couple of bid stalkers, they only bid on items that I am bidding on.
-
Have you tried playing the game without pushing the tray down at all?? One nintendo I used to have would play games like that.
-
Ask the bidder who sent you the email what the id of the person was, it would tell them in the Email, then report that user for interference which will quickly get them suspended.
-
I saw on an annoucement board that Ebay is working on a system that will limit what new Ebay buyers can purchase. Bidville already has a system in place where a zero FB buyer can only bid on 10 items
-
Prime example of a Buy It Now Bandit. I don't see what the thrill is for these losers.
-
And you left him a neutral?? I would have negged him and filed a non-perfroming seller on him.
-
Maybe I should email him and ask if the pages are stuck together.

I was amazed when I moved from Texas to Georgia, even though I am thankfully back in Texas now, that I had to drive 10 miles to the nearest Wal-Mart and I moved to a city bigger than my hometown in Texas. Here i can drive 10 miles and get to 2 super centers and one regular Wal Mart.
Out west they are few and far between.

Ripped Off on Shipping

Those guys make all their money on the shipping so they don't have to pay paypal fees
You pay paypal fees on the total recieved not just the non shipping amount, however they are avoiding Ebay fees. You only pay fees on ebay based on the auction amount.
