Why are the buyers who spend less than 10.00 the biggest crybabies on Ebay?

    agreed how about ebayers who:

    take 3 weeks to send you a check and then ask the next day if the card has shipped

    who want you to jump thru hoops for a $8.00 item (discount on shipping, can you seel it for less, etc.)

    insult you with "best offers", as if eveybody is an idiot...

    and of Course: people who expect mint cards when the description says ex or exmt.

    any others

    Buyers who send a check with no information on what its for. And the return address on the envelope is different than the address on the check

    Buyers who are running about 3 weeks late on payment. You've emailed them 2-3 times and they never reply until you file a NPB and withing 30 seconds you have a respond and they give some line about just got off a plane minutes ago, had just returned from a rafting trip down the Congo and they haven't had any access to emails

    Sellers who never send an invoice, never acknowledge payment and never say when they will ship the card

    Sellers who say if you win more than one auction they will combine shipping, but they never answer emails asking them how much they will reduce shipping.

    I am not sure about your jumping through hoops remark. Regardless of the items selling price, if you feel it is not worth it to help a customer, than do not list the item. I have lost count of the number of times I have emailed sellers asking for scans of the back of a card. Never once has a seller provided that scan. Recently, for the first time, a seller asked me describe what I was looking for in lieu of the requested scan. So I described the variation and he has yet to respond after 3 days of waiting. So in the end, he will not get my business. Not on this $8.00 item or any other item in the future.

    That reminds me of a story.

    Guy walks into his doctor's office and says his elbow hurts when he contorts it in an odd way; bent at the elbow, turned around his back, and then moves his fingers.

    Doctor says, "Simple solution, stop doing that."
