Comments on: How to open a UPI without getting bad feedback http://tamebay.com/2008/06/how-to-open-a-upi-without-getting-bed-feedback.html eBay & ecommerce made easy Thu, 24 May 2012 15:51:07 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.2 By: anticipating gBay http://tamebay.com/2008/06/how-to-open-a-upi-without-getting-bed-feedback.html#comment-9771 anticipating gBay Wed, 02 Jul 2008 17:53:04 +0000 http://www.tamebay.com/?p=3025#comment-9771 Ty Sue ... assuming we're still with eBay by that time; it would be appreciated. The thought of a Paypal-only eBay makes me shudder; see paypalsucks.com for a few reasons why. We are *currently* involved in a Paypal dispute- same old story; buyer pays, company ships, buyer claims they didn't receive item (despite actually doing so) and Paypal reverses the funds. We shipped the item via. Royal Mail Special Delivery with tracking # & receipts etc. and the transaction is apparently covered under Paypal's "Seller Protection* Policy". However, because royalmail.com (which we do not run by the way!) says that the item was 'delivered' but does not mention to which address, Paypal is saying they won't cover us & hey, presto there's £110 down the drain. The few eBay transactions we receive via. Google, CC through World Pay, Cheques etc etc are the only light in a dim tunnel. If eBay take that away, then we're done with them for good & I am sure that there are other traders that feel the same way. * Can be substituted for : Exploitation.

Amazon is much better at dealing with this and is so much better for us now! I bet ebay wished they had set it up like amazon now, it seems to be a much easier place to trade for both parties I should think (altho now I have said this something will probably go wrong!! lol) I did move over to instant pay when I was on there and it was alot easier, maybe it would just save hassle if ebay moved over to it, this is the choice paypal or nothing and just be done with it!

The ONLY option for this is Paypal. Why can't merchants use providers like Worldpay/Protx etc. for their immediate payments? For the same reason that sellers can only list Paypal as the only payment option in some categories (and no, it's NOT to prevent fraud lmfao), Thanks to the recent fb changes, we went from 99.1% to 97.5% overnight and hence in 30 days, we will no longer be powersellers (98% min. required) - thus we've changed to a zero tolerance. No payment, UPI strike and fees reclaimed. No fuss, no muss. There has been talk of Google releasing an auction site (Man, I wish they call it 'G-Bay' :) and if they do, we're going to say hasta to the fools at eBay. They claim that buyers are their biggest commodity, but what they fail to understand is that sellers are too! What makes eBay fundamentally different to Amazon, is that Amazon is a company that sells things via. its website and thus their sellers are an added bonus. If sellers collectively left eBay, the whole structure would crumble; it's time they respected that. To avoid NPB one has to choose immediate payment required. The ONLY option for this is Paypal.

The problem is that even though I have paypal only, immediate payment, this is about the 4th NPB that I have had anyway! Hope you don't have the same problem. #25 I TOTALLY agree, in the short time I was allowing Cash/Chheque/Bank Trans etc, I had no end of hassle from people who just liked to click and not pay!

Until the UPI system works safely for me I won't be using it and will just write off any losses that come my way. #27 No Gerry,but I don’t want to loose all the good ones that eBay provides me with thats why I am not risking my account for the greater good of the site, someone who can swallow a neg can do it, or even better eBay can.
