I never reply to people asking for measurements. I supply a chest and length in the listing and anything more than that the buyer is going to be way too picky and too likely to return the item. Call up a department store and ask for them to measure a garment and get laughed at.

Agreed. I just reply back "measurements are in the photos and item specifics" and call it a day. I don't have the time to pull something from inventory every time someone asks me to measure something. That's just more time I can list or source more items.

I have some motorcycle jackets that I have listed. I have measurements on my listings but this customer had a very specific measurement they needed to make a buying decision. If I didn't give them the measurement they wouldn't have purchased it. Now the jacket was $90 so it was defiantly worth it. But my inventory is in my storage which is about 5 mins away. So it is not practical to run to the storage in the middle of dinner to get a measurement. You have to do what works best for you while at the same time keeping good customer relations.

welcome to photoshop. 1) look at his store 2)Look at the average price 3) He has a grand total of 15 items over $80. do you really think his average sale is $80? Come on. He's got thousands of $10 items with 15% Sale with 20% coupon

I also switched to always have item returned before any refund (even if damaged by Post Office).. interesting that I'd say 85% of the time the buyer never follows through with the return.. good way to save yourself some $$ each month... many buyers just expect a full refund and not to have to return anything which they are used to from Amazon.. great content as always!

I almost never give a refund and let them keep the item. There are so many people out there who do that intentionally, all the time, in hopes of getting free stuff and/or a partial refund. If they want their money back then you bet your ass they will be shipping the item back to me. Unless the item gets damaged in transit then usually it's the buyer's decision to return the item. In other words, it's usually not the sellers fault, so why should I suffer and lose out on money because of a picky customer? This is just my opinion, of course.

I agree on the system of having the customer return an item before issuing a refund. Believe it or not but sometimes customers will start the refund process but never send the item back in time, so zero refund is given.

I fill in the item specifics that don't apply with NA because ebay really pushes the recommended item specifics and I'm worried if I leave them blank they will bump my listing down. It sucks because some of the item specifics do not apply at all, I would prefer to be able to delete the ones that don't apply rather than leaving it blank or typing in NA.

amazing channel with amazing info about eBay . going back to watch as much as I can from these videos

New Subscriber. Thank you! Part time seller. I’ve learned a lot!

Returns - I sell pills and lotion's 95% sealed with no returns. When the customer tells me the item is defective or fake I always make them return before issuing a refund. They usually have the item for 3 weeks and decide they do not like it ( usually with expensive creams) I am sure they hope I would just refund and some even as me to! I would rather receive - refund - throw :)

Good stuff. Every time I asked customers to send item back at no extra cost. 90% of the time they don't. The only time I asked them to keep the item if it gets damaged during transit. Or if I messed up

Do you reuse your plastic bags your clothes are stored in? Or send them in the parcel?

Hi I watch your videos a lot I’m also a seller on eBay I sell a lot of fishing items starting to run into a problem I have a lot of items that are not worth printing shipping label they are so late I use envelope and stamp take picture send to customer to let them know their item is in the mail now for some reason the customers are taking a vantage of this saying they are not receiving their item what should I do?

Thanks for these tips! You’ve been so helpful. Do you notice you receive more sales from having a free return window versus a no returns window?

Totally agree on the requirement to return the item before a refund is issued. I'm not into giving things away for free. And customers will take advantage of that if you allow them to keep the item. Not all of them of course but enough to piss me off. My girlfriend does it to temu and alli Express. And it makes me so mad. She totally takes advantage of these companies. I know they are huge and it probably doesn't hurt them much but it's the principle of the thing. I just won't do that. But she showed me how some people think. Sickening really v

Hi Chris! I am so confused about the item specifics…. I thought we had to choose a choice for each of the requirements. I have added na to all of those. I was under the impression that if we didn’t, our items would not be visible to buyers

You don't. Only on the items specifics under "required" do you have to put something in the item specific fields. Anything under the "recommended" don't matter. Well...they DO matter, if you're putting the correct item specifics, but they aren't mandatory.

i'm started my sales 6 mons ago from zero, rigth now i have 5800 items on my stock, (Listing impressions 5700000) after 2000 items on the stock my sales stopped, 10 item per day, 15-20 per weekend. different category ( from storage auctions), how you have 800K$ per 90days, my gross 35k$ per 90days.... my stock in 5 times less but your gross in 20 time more.

Hi Chris, First of all, thank you for all of the great content you continuously post! Unrelated to this video, my question is: How do you recommend I download all of my eBay listings including descriptions and photos so they’re in a prepared format to be re-uploaded and re listed? I.e, is there any specific software you can recommend? Many thanks.

If that rock came back via the USPS, you should have reported it...mail fraud is a BIG deal!

How important is a html listing template? I ask because I can see other sellers in different categories who just have text descriptions with a couple of emojis and they're selling a tonne of items every month. I know a template looks more professional but when I look at my template, I feel like my brand logo and the layout just takes up a lot of space vs just having a simple text layout. I sell on etsy too and a few other platforms and we can only use text and sellers don't have a problem selling items on those sites.

Any tips for getting a lesser than a massive 13% cut that ebay takes because that is a killer take on their part

Did the condition description feature go away? I've never seen it and going back to my listings it doesn't appear anywhere

I subscribed to your KZread channel. Great advice and pointers. I have a question. I am not large, still small selling, trying to find my niche. I see you offer returns. I don't make that much on items and feel that returns cut into my profit or may exceed my profit. Say I am making only 10$ profit after fees and cost and the item is $9, 10 or more dollars to return. Do you have any suggestions on this. Shipping costs are so high now. My buyer pays the shipping for the product originally, plus the product and tax. Should I offer returns? Can I offer returns, but buyer pays shipping back. At the moment I have no refund policy, but if a product is damaged, not as described due to my error. I refund automatically. If it is an expensive item. I will require to be sent back before refund is issued. If it isn't worth the cost to ship back, I just refund with no return shipping. I could use any advice on this issue.

Hey Chris, excuse my ignorance. But what do you mean when you say you'll get a deduction for shipping?

I have a question that when setting price,is it a good way to put the shipping fees with price together?I mean you set the price at 10 ,the shipping is 5,so the customer should pay 10+5=15.I mean I want to set the price at 14.99 with free shipping,is it a good way?Thank you chris

I only use free shipping on items I know will be the same price for just about anyone in the US that orders that item. Media Mail is one area and First Class is another. So Books CDs Movies and items lighter then a pound work well for building the cost of shipping into the final sale price. I also check to see if customers are use to getting free shipping on that item. If you are on the seller hub ebay now puts that info in the shipping section. If 90% of that item is offered with free shipping then I build it into the price. If not I do calculated shipping.

My inventory is at 2 different locations sometimes you can NOT check what the client wants. Once a customer wanted me to ask a dealership what frequency the keyfob l was selling was running on. Sorry my time is more valuable than that.

is this one listing review when you first join and that's the limit, or could someone get multiple listings reviewed, like once every few months, as they improved?

Nice vid thanks bro 👍👍

You're not alone. If I ever feel like I haven't been selling much lately I will go through all of my items and either send out low offers or just lower the price outright. Sometimes (most times) I feel like I moved too fast and it would have sold for a higher price if I was more patient. To be honest, I don't think I'll ever stop doing that.

can you do a vlog about the shipping prices you use for different items?

This video made me laugh, and not in a good way. A listing takes me forever. One of the reasons is I always take great pains to answer every item question, and in some categories that takes some research. I get the gripes emails from EBay saying 'this item has four unanswered item questions, and that item has six. Buyers want to know this information.' And so I waste time- does California Proposition 65 apply to this vase? What's the MPN number for this AC adapter? Hey, EBay says it's important to buyers. Then this morning Chris tells me not only do buyers not care if I answer every question- by doing so, I could actually be hiding my item from buyer's search results. Bitter laugh.
