Question
I dunno. Am I the only one? This really jerks my chain.
I'm talking about the Big Yellow Button reply BS in the Q4S and the people that actually expect me to go from my Outlook email to My Messages to answer their questions. That's right, ask me questions that I "should" be reporting to eBay and then expect me to reply "through" eBay.
I've had it with all these stupid hoops. If you don't want a reply, don't ask me a question. If you do, don't hide your email address. I simply don't have the time or the inclanation to indulge in this nonsense.
Sorry, I had to get that off my chest before I put my fist through the wall.
AAARGH !!!!!!

Answer
Hm. Three of us. Guess it's not a big deal.
Oh well, I've been know to cut off my nose to spite my face before. There's going to be some buyers that don't get a response from me. Won't hurt anyone but me. How bad can that be?
Answer
"how much is shipping?" *stated in the auction... 2x*
"I'll buy it if you give me a $2 discount"
"how much would combined shipping be?" *stated in the auction... 2x*
"If I'd have known to pay this much in shipping, I wouldn't have bought"
*he then refused me to refund him and wants the item*
"I have an account with you, how much is the wholesale price for item X"
*no name provided, nothing...*
item a = $30 item b = $30 "I'll buy your stuff if you give me both items for $22. Give me this courtesy service"
"WHERE IS MY ITEM????? IT'S BEEN 2 WEEKS!!!!!" *they paid 13 days after auction ends*
"WHERE IS MY ITEM??? IT'S BEEN 2 WEEKS!!!!" *they won it 8 hours ago*
"This is the 3rd time I emailed you! If you don't respond, I'm going to call eBay and leave you a negative!" *Never gotten your email"
"You have MANY negatives! I'm going to call eBay and kick you out"
*only got 3 and I'm a red star* *go call eBay... I'll be waiting*
"how come the screen is not brand new!! There's so many scratches and bubbles in it!!! I can't see my iPad info at all! I want my money back" *Pull out the protection film from the iPad's screen*
Am I missing out anything? ^_____^
Answer
If you send me a question and hide your email address you won't get a reply from me, at all, sorry. And I generally will NOT put your question in my auction unless it is very relevant.
Answer
I don't get the yellow button, but I have the html turned off so I just get text emails.
After I wade through the 6 paragraphs of warnings, threats and admonitions regarding the evils of off-ebay transactions, I finally find the teeny one-liner question. "How much is shipping to the UK?" preceded by the less-than-polite: RESPOND NOW
Thankfully, so far all have enabled their email address for reply. Because if I have to go to My Messages and sit through their 20 minute login fiasco, the auction will most likely be ended by the time I get the question answered!

Well said!
I've been very lucky in that all my transactions so far have been with courteous (and some very kind) people... and I feel lucky when I read what some sellers have had to deal with. My time will come, I'm sure... in the meantime it would be nice to have any sales at all....
