Hello, My Name is Brenda XXX eBay ID girlbiker51. I have been a eBay Seller since Sept of this year. Have a 100% Perfect Score, My Bill Always paid, As Quoted by eBay in their personal Rating of me is

“ABOVE AVERAGE”. I just open My Own Combination Neighborhood Ebay Store / Collectibles / Antiques / Surplus. I was Going Like a Rocket, Gaining New Customers Daily from simple housewives to Local Politicians. They would bring ALL Kinds of Stuff for me to List and Sell For them on Ebay. I am 51 yrs old, disabled and my husband is Terminal with Advanced Progressive C.O.P.D. and Heart Disease. This is our ONLY Source of Income. Things were going Great until 7 Days Ago. Suddenly WITHOUT ANY WARNING – EMAIL – PHONE CALL – LETTER or even a MESSAGE Left in my Message Box on Ebay, Everything Came to a DEAD STOP!!! As I was Creating a New Ad and Ready to Submit, I get this note as follows, (actually copy) –

I have sent over a Dozen Emails and Phone Calls to Ebay Asking Why, What Is Wrong, and How Long. For SEVEN DAYS (7) I have yet to receive an answer form ANYONE!

I Have NOT Broken a SINGLE RULE, Not A SINGLE COMPLAINT, Bills All UP TO DATE, Credit Card and Checking Account. I have been investing a LOT of Money Daily getting ready fro the Holidays. My Customer Base was Increasing 3 fold weekly. And Now, we are LOOSING Everything We Have. Besides the Fact I have Lost The RESPECT – TRUST and CONFIDENCE from My Area and Old and New Customers alike. They don’t and won’t believe me when I try to explain I have done nothing wrong. In all my life I have NEVER Been so Humiliated, Disgraced, Shamed and Disrespected like this.

And the Two WORSE Part is, For One, Did Nothing Wrong to Deserve it, Two, No One Warned me and Now for 7 Days of Pleading, Asking and even Begging, for a Answer and or Response, Still Nothing to this Date and Time of Oct. 14, 2009 4:00 pm est. I ask as Humble as I know how, PLEASE, WILL SOMEONE Hear and Listen To My Cry for Help and Seek out Why I have been done in this matter and will I ever be allowed back to Sell Again? We are now preparing to Sell Everything we own and move from the area. We are in Total Disgrace and Without Any Other Customers. This act of Ebay, has Literally DESTROYED Us and Our Business in 1 week. Please, Help. Brenda RXXX at bikerbrenda51@hotmail.,com

Where it applies to eBay it is all for the buyer, and it is not that quick or convenient to go through the eBay checkout process by phone. The buyer will not be surprised or delighted when the seller is unable to service the sale when away from home.

Yes a seller will want to be able to do just that since their ability to have their listing be seen, visibility, which is essential to sales, is now so dependent on recent sales.

It seems odd to be that excited about an application which has so little to do with making the eBay Marketplace work.

I bet that wasn’t via a Channel Advisor Checkout, 40 days and 40 nights would be closer the mark.!
