No More Paper Payments eBay will soon eliminate the options of paying by personal check, money order, and cashiers check.  My entire reputation has been built on good and honest buyers who paid with paper payments, and this change is a real nightmare for me.  With this new eBay policy, MY policies must also change.  It may be that I will have to stop selling on eBay altogether because of the very high fees associated with accepting PayPal payments.  As we all know, eBay owns PayPal, and every time you win an item on eBay, then make a PayPal payment, eBay not only gets the listing and final value fees associated with the listed item, but eBay also gets the fees associated with your PayPal payment – and these fees are sizeable.  All of my auction starting bids will have to rise, as well as handling charges, in order to cover the sizeable PayPal fees and ever-increasing eBay fees.  Rather than recognizing a worsening economy and doing what they can to help people, eBay wants more of a piece of everyone’s pie as more people need to list things.  eBay has created a “buyer’s market,” but, as a buyer myself, I am cutting down on how much I shop on eBay.  As a seller, my protections have been eradicated, and my fees have gone up.  Please educate yourself on PayPal.  When you pay me with PayPal, I don’t get the money.  Your payment goes into an account, and PayPal (eBay) limits how much I can withdraw from that account without an additional fee.  I CAN ONLY GET A LIMITED AMOUNT OF MY OWN MONEY OUT OF PAYPAL WITHOUT PAYING A FEE OR GETTING A PAYPAL DEBIT CARD WITH MORE FEES.  In the future, I will remind people to check out my Craigslist listings on my eBay listings.    Since eBay has instigated their policy of not allowing sellers to give buyers negative feedback, I have had more unpaid items, as well as many very late payments.  I am being held hostage by eBay and by buyers…with no protection from eBay.  Again, I may have to stop selling on eBay. Contact Info Please contact me via eBay messaging ONLY, not e-mail.  Shipping & Handling Fees I use the most cost-effective methods offered by the USPS for shipping, with small handling charge for my time and careful packaging.  I do not use the eBay shipping calculator, since it typically calculates incorrectly on the VERY high end.  I weigh items and determine cost using the most recent USPS Prices and Fees catalog.  If I overestimate shipping, I reimburse the bidder. Insurance I am not responsible for uninsured items.  Payment Currently, I take any form of payment, other than PayPal.  Payment due within 7 days.  Whereas I am flexible with my payment time, I recently had a man send a payment 5 WEEKS after the auction closed…he blamed me, because I don’t take PayPal and because he was on vacation.  He also lied to me.  I assume he will give me negative feedback, since I haven’t been nice to him.  Again, I have no protection from people like him. Shipping Due to the demands of my real job and new eBay policy dictating that I soon can no longer accept paper payments, I will only ship once a week.  I used to ship up to 5 times a week…I can’t do that anymore.  With the new eBay system, I can’t afford to be flexible.  If I start to get negative feedback, I will no longer sell on eBay.  PLEASE BE AWARE THAT I HAVE A SERIOUS HEALTH CONDITION THAT COULD DELAY SHIPPING.  YOU ARE BIDDING WITH THAT UNDERSTANDING!  Feedback I leave feedback only after a buyer has left feedback for me, so that I know the buyer is satisfied.  AS A BUYER, FEEDBACK IS PART OF YOUR CONTRACT.         Return Policy All sales final.  Ask questions via eBay messaging before bidding.  I describe items to the best of my ability.  None of us, including the cats and dog, smoke.  However, since most of the items I sell are used, they are seldom perfect, and there may be odors. International Bidders I will ship internationally with qualifications.  Be aware of what items are on the prohibited list for mailing into your country.  Don’t bid and ask me to lie on customs forms.
