**Make Me Rich This Year eBay or Else!!**

jovi20

Just added up my payments for February. Total of £79.44 for me after paypal & ebay fees of £29.32. I had hoped to make at least £100 this month, but didn't quite make it. If only we didn't have to pay fees!!!

I've got 35 items listed at the moment, 5 of which have bids on at a total of £11.21, so off to a better start for March.

Was dissapointed to recieve a low rating for postage and packaging on one of my recent items, as I always try to be fair with costings and have always posted items within 48 , usually 24 hrs of receiving payment.

Has anyone got any advice as to how much you charge for packaging, as when I look at most items they seem to have 50p -£1 plus above the postage costs. I have been adding approx 30p usually for packaging, so was amazed by the low score when the item had arrived within 3 days of end of listing. I know some people put free P&P , but it is usually added into cost of item when you compare with other listings.??

Hey everyone,

Can someone help me with an unpaid item case. I opened a case in the 'Resolution Center' 5 days ago and the buyer still hasn't paid. How do I close the case now and get my fees back? I've been trying to follow Ebay's instructions but keep getting put back to the same start page which does not explain how i can close the case in the Resolution center.

Do I just click on the options beside the item and choose 'Close Case'? Also, will this put an 'unpaid item mark' on the buyer which I do wish to have happen so others can watch out for her?

Thank you!

Just click on the option beside the item 'Close Case' and the case will be closed. You will receive your fees back and the seller will receive an unpaid item mark. However, whether they really do receive an unpaid item mark is disputable because Ebay writes in it's terms that the buyer 'may' receive an unpaid item mark. Whether they do or not, we'll never know i guess. It is very annoying to know people can just do this and be getting away with it.

PrincessLou - I tried to click Close Case but it brings me back the original Resolution Centre and tells me that I've already opened a case for this item. Any thoughts?

Whoops - needed to scroll to the bottom of the page to do it. Thanks!

Omg mrscmr that is fantastic; I hope they were a few large items rather than 400+ items ? :rotfl:

I've got rid of 40 items in the last couple of weeks. The money might not be great at a little under £200 but the space those items have left is great :T

mrscmr

haha imagine if i said it was 400 items at 99p! omg... no it was about 15 items

I would have believed you
