Do your item description pages have everything that buyers need to know?If you're planning to offer international delivery, then it's good to make a list of the charges to different counties and display it on each auction. So you've decided that you want to get rolling as a seller on ebay. I advise you get using it asap. If you have any special terms and conditions (for example, if you will give a refund on any item as long as it hasn't been opened), then you should make sure these are displayed too.If not or before you use it -It's worth sending a brief email when transactions go through: something like a simple "Thank you for buying my item, please let me know when you have sent the payment". By now, you're well prepared for ebay life, and you're probably ready to get started with that first auction. " This might sound like giving the customer an opportunity to complain, but you should be trying to help your customers, not take their money and run. Being a seller is a lot of responsibility, and sometimes you might feel like you're not doing everything you should be. Don't pack it in if something goes a little wrong in your first few sales: the sellers who are booming on ebay are the ones who enjoy it, and stick at it whatever comes about. The most important of these is to always sell what you know. Non-paying bidder: a bidder who wins an auction but does not then go on to buy the item. You will be surprised how many problems you will avoid just by communicating this way. This simple checklist will help you keep on top of things. Firstly, you need to know what it is you're going to sell: what's your specialisation?You'll do far better on ebay if you become a great source for certain kind of products, as people who are interested in those products will come back to you again and again. PayPal: an electronic payment method accepted by most sellers. Bid: telling ebay's system the maximum price you are prepared to pay for an item. You'll probably do even better if you fill a niche than if you sell something common. Reserve: the minimum price the seller will accept for the item. The chances are that you'll find more specific jargon related to whatever you're selling, but it'd be an impossible task to cover it all here. The cost is very low and there is a free perioid at the start too. Learning the ebay "slang". Being a really good ebay seller, more than anything else, is about providing genuinely

                  10:48p I'm sure this has been ranted about plenty of times, but I figured it was my turn:
                

Dear sir,

If I'm holding out my hand for you, its so you can hand me your money. I'm not signaling for you to drop it on the counter beside my hand.

Good guess though.

No love, Me (15 Comments |Comment on this) hotel_workers

                  10:21p I work at a grocery store as a cashier. I'm seventeen years old.
                

Today, a woman comes up to me with two mixed fruit bowls, and a bag of hot dog buns.

Me: *Waves* RL: Robot-Lady

Me: Hi! How are you today?! :D :D RL: SEPARATE!!!! *shoves everything she is holding into my hands* Me: Uhhh...*Scans everything*...Your total is $12.31. RL: SEPARATE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

At this point I don't understand why she is yelling separate at me. I asked her how she was, and she didn't respond. So she points at one bowl of mixed fruit and says PAY SEPARATE!!!!!! So I voided it, and rang it up separately.

I thought to myself, hm, maybe she has some kind of voice problem, or doesn't speak english very well.

But...before you left....

RL: NO WONDER YOU ARE WORKING AS A CASHIER INSTEAD OF STUDYING, YOU DON'T KNOW THE MEANING OF THE WORD SEPARATE!!!!!!!

She storms out. with her bags. Except for the fruit bowl that she so badly wanted separate. I didn't go after her, hell no.

That seriously is one thing that absolutely pisses me off. How the general population assumes that just because someone is a cashier, or working at a blue collar job, means that they are uneducated or cannot hold a real job. I am a senior in high school. I've been accepted to all of the schools I have applied to so far. I work so I can pay for my own expenses and my own gas. My father just bought me a really nice car, and I'm not going to ass kiss him to pay for my $3.25/gallon gas! SO GET OVER YOURSELVES, YOU AREN'T BETTER THAN ANY PERSON WHO SERVES YOU.

Oh, one final thing. The US Weekly magazine display is right near my register, and the title is always something like "SICK!!! BRITNEY ENDS UP IN HOSPICE CARE" or "GIMME GIMME...JUNK FOOD! BRITNEY PIGS OUT, GAINS 30 POUNDS BEFORE PERFORMANCE". I won't go into my rant about how pathetic those magazines are (leave her alone!), but the suck is here.

MAW: Middle aged Woman

MAW: WHY THE FUCK IS BRITNEY WEARING A BIKINI ON STAGE?!?!??! SERIOUSLY, SHE IS REALLY, REALLY, FAT.

First of all, Britney has had two kids in a 2 year span. She looks pretty damn good for that. And who are you to talk? Mrs. Childless, Ben-and-Jerry's pints and brownie mix purchaser, who is about the size of 6 "fat" britneys. (And she really isn't fat at all.)

Okay. I'm finished. (19 Comments |Comment on this) hotel_workers

                  10:14p I know that many of you detest children, but I love them. Outside of work. Sometimes I even love them at work. I love them more than the adults because you can ask them to stop doing something and they will stop instead of looking at you like you're insane for expecting them to act like civilized creatures. The problem with adults is that they think nobody can tell them what to do. So here are some of my recent favorite child encounters:
                

Me: You have spiders on your fingers! Boy: Yes. I have two. Me: That's gross- they look slimy! Boy: (rolls his eyes) They're not gross because they're not real. Me: Oh. I guess I should have known that.

(4 year old girl steps into lobby and gasps) This place is AMAZING! This table is amazing! Look! Popcorn! Amazing! (Making laps around the table with arms out airplane style) We're going to stay here for 2 days, Mommy! And it's amazing!

There you have it, folks. My hotel is AMAZING!!!! (3 Comments |Comment on this) customers_suck

                  9:36p Canadians:
                

I live in Buffalo, and once the Canadian dollar became worth more than ours, we've been getting a lot of Canadian shoppers. I work at Tim Hortons, which is a predominantly Canadian based restaurant anyway, so now probably half of our customers are foreign. I don't mind this obviously, but seriously, if you went to a foreign country, wouldn't you get your money exchanged?! Don't get irate with me because I can't accept Canadian money for your twenty dollar order. Also, if you can't even calculate how much your money is worth here, why should I be able to?

Racist people: So I wasn't working on Friday after school, so I went into Tim Hortons to get some food. I have a lot of Indian people working with me, and some of them speak in kinda heavy accents. But they have no problem understanding anything, which is pretty awesome considering we live in Buffalo, where a lot of people speak twice as fast as they need to. I got in line, and a guy and his girl get in line behind me. This guy, was seriously the most ignorant person I've heard. The first thing he says is that the workers "all stand around in the dhsking kitchen and how they are all fkssing terrorists who dont even speak lsdking english." I turned around and gave him the ultimate death stare, and he kinda stared back like why is this girl offended? I was glad my Indian boyfriend was out in the parking lot bragging about his new car with his friend or this guy would have had 130 pounds of scrawny teenage boy in his face to deal with. So I got to the counter and greeted the Cashier with a big smile and a "HIII KULDIPPP!" They were being really affectionate and asking me when I worked, and we were shooting the shit and when I turned back, the guy and his girl were making a hasty retreat to their car. heh

                  9:56p I work at a pet store.
                

I was cleaning out the adoption cat cages today. They are in cages in a room behind a glass wall. Anyway, someone taps on the wall (Giant sign all over the glass that says "DO NOT TAP ON GLASS" is ignored). The following exchange occurs, first through the glass wall.

Me:Can I help you? Lady:Rosco? Me:*Confused look* I'm sorry, what? (yeah I know fishsticks and all that, I was much too confused) Lady: Rosco. He is small and black. Me: *Glances around looking for a black cat named Rosco, finding none, I look back to the lady* I am not sure what you are talking about.*Walks out of room* What can I do for you? I don't know what you are looking for. Lady: ROSCO! He is a Japanese Chin. I brought him in here this morning. Me: Oh, Grooming is right through that door. Lady:Oh no! It smells like poop in there! Me: I'm sorry.... Lady: Rosco...... Me: I'm not sure what you want. Lady: Can you get him for me? Me: Oh...yeah. Lady:I have asthma and it smells in there. Me: *Thinking " I have asthma too and I am cleaning out the cat cages in an enclosed room, do you think it smells like flowers in here?"

I guess it would have been to hard to ask "Excuse me ma'am but my dog Rosco is next door in grooming, would you mind picking him up for me?"

Also, We are NOT a petting zoo! If you aren't thinking about adopting a cat you can NOT hold them! They are not our cats and NOT ALL CATS LIKE TO BE HELD! My scratched up arm is proof of that! (9 Comments |Comment on this) customers_suck

                  7:51p I drive escort for my college. Escort is similar to a taxi service, except we only go to places on-campus (and the nearby Burger King, if you're nice) and the students pay us in their tuition instead of each time they get a ride. I work Friday and Saturday nights, which are some of the busiest nights of the week. Here's a few complaints I have about those I drive around.
