Another ebay rant....

Sometimes i hate ebay with passion. Sold something over a week ago. The buyer paid late thursday night, after I went to bed. So obviously I dind't take the item (video game) with me to work the next day and subsequently couldn't ship it that friday. As the result I ended up mailing the item out next Monday. The buyer ended up receiving the item a week later on Tuesday. Now keep in mind that post office was closed on Monday due to columbus day. So in all, it took the item 10 days to be delivered, out of those 10, 2 days were sundays, 1 day was a holiday and 6 days were in transit.

So the buyer leaves me a feedback complaining about me taking too long to ship. How's that too long? Especially since I e-mailed the buyer with the tracking number as soon as I mailed the item.

Which shipping carrier and mode did you agree to use?

I normally don't specify what carrier I would use, but I always set shipping fee to $5 so it's obvious I won't be shipping via FedEx next day.
 
in all honesty I probably would have left you a pos feedback but noted that shipping took awhile.


when my auctions end I make a point to be able to ship THE NEXT DAY. If they paid thurs night then what's the deal? Check your email the next morning after the auctions ends then ship fri.

agreed...i never have an auction end on a thurs/fri just cause i dont wanna scramble around before the weekend ot get something shipped off. I try and do sat/sun so that way they know its not goign to be shipped on those days, gives me extra time to prep, and an entire week to be able to ship

I didn't see the e-mail until Friday morning. At that point it was too late to run home, pick up the game and ship it. I do have a full time job.
