Top rated plus sellers on Ebay part II? Holy $#@^

Not sure what happened to my original post but I'll try it again. I just finished reading the fall newsletter and Ebay is at it again. According to new" consumer demands", sellers must now accept 30 day returns to qualify for plus status. Does any board member here subscribe to the plus status and if so do you find it a long term benefit? Ma and Pa six pack can now abuse your item(s) and extra 16 days and still qualify for a return...As a current top rated seller this sounds absolutely insane. Thoughts?
JDRF saves lives, let not another child walk down the path of juvenile diabetes alone. Consider giving either time or money, it will come back to you. $15,800 and counting....

I was glad that they made some changes to remove seller defects in a bunch of situations where it logically shouldn't count against you.
Overall, happy with the changes coming next year!
I've had two returns in the past three years. One was a damaged book in transit and the other the customer simply changed their mind.
Yes, I am one as well. Not a big deal IMO. How often does anyone here have to deal with returns anyway? And if so, isn't usually either in the first couple days or not at all
The toughest part about it is probably that you have to change the listings of unsold items you are renewing to adjust the duration in order to get the discount when it kicks in next May.

I'd agree with this. Hopefully, eBay will offer a global opt-in where you can click a button an it'll be applied, like they do with extended holiday returns. Something to simplify compliance would be nice.

I'm with you there. My only defect came when my mail carrier forgot to switch the modes on his hand scanner after delivering some items to me, and when he scanned an item I was shipping out, it said it was delivered instead of loading the tracking info. As luck would have it, the buyer of that item filed an item not received claim by opening a case, the same day it shipped out which was also the same day payment cleared, because he happened to check the tracking info and saw it was marked as delivered. Never wrote an email to ask me about it though. Of course he received the item safe and sound a couple days after that and he closed the case, but it stayed on as a defect nonetheless. With the new rules, item not received cases that are resolved between the two parties do not count as defects.
