Person wants tells me not to worry about shipping it will be handled through her shipper? Confused? Read!? -

Hello,I am a Avon rep and I received an email from a random person that I have never met saying she wants to order around 800 dollars in products but she doesn t use a credit card that s why she is going directly through me and she will send me a check (I know to let it clear first ect) but she lives in CA.. This is exactly what she said in the email..you don t need to worry about the shipping and the pick up of the order from your location that will be handle through my Shipper after you have receive the funds for the order. i do live in Torrance CA, but the products would be shipping to Uk where my sister reside, that is why I don t want you to be worry about the shipping, the shipping company will schedule the pickup of the productsI said: I am not really understanding how they will be shipped to you? I need your address and I can have avon ship it directly to youThen she said: You don t need to worry about the shipment because i have a private shipper s that will come for the the pick up of the item, they are reliable and trustworthyOK am I missing something here? Unless she gives me a different address Avon ships the products directly to me.. and then I distribute them.. but she is confusing me? The only possible way for me to get them to her is for her to give me another address and I can have Avon ship them to her or me or for someone to come and pick them up from me and then send them to her? I live in Indiana so I don t think she is going to be having someone pick them up.. I just don t really understand what she is talking about her shipper and she seems to be getting irritated with me because I don t understand it.. Am I missing something.. can anyone else make since of this..THANKS

It is a well known scam.She will send you a check that is a forgery. You deposit the check, but the bank will take a few days to find out its a forgery.In the meantime, her carrier comes to your home and picks up the goods, and you never see then again.When the check bounces, you are out the goods.If you still believe that this is genuine, tell her that you will wait for 2 weeks before the check clears, and then you have to go to the bank to confirm the money is in your account - before you even order the goods. that will stop the scammer pretty quickly, and they will move to the next victim.

This is a scam. She will want you to pay the shipping out of the extra money she sends you in the check. It will take a couple of weeks for the check to come back as counterfeit or stolen. You will be out the shipping plus the merchandise.

There are plenty of Avon people in Ca. that she could be doing business with. She is one step ahead of you. Even if works out, she will be right back to you with some other request. Drop it like a hot potato!

Is it a waste of time selling on eBay at the minute...? -

I have loads of quality Stuff to sell on eBay but I have noticed at the minute the prices Stuff fetches is peanuts.. Then eBay wants its cut for selling it... Then Pay-pal wants its cut for handling the transaction....You can sell stuff and be out of pocket..Why bother????Has eBay had its day and will it still exist in 10 Years time.Thank you for you answers (If I get any) Have a great day

Just saw a guy from ebay on TV trying to justify the policy of users not now being allowed to sell an item with a separate postal charge. He was like a worm on a hook!From what the guy was saying, ebay is interested in businesses selling rather than individuals.So, if you have a business small or large and can offset the postage pricing or cuts that others take somehow, then ebay is the way for you.As a private or casual seller, it may well be that ebay no longer supports your needs.Ebay survival? If they continue the way they are then they will only survive for use by businesses that can afford to use the service . For the casual seller though, ebay seems to be on its last legs - if not death bed.

Currently with most things forcing sellers to have free postage and then ebay taking fees it doesn t always work out well for the seller. All depends on what you are selling. Many sellers also still state they will charge postage.With it getting nearer to Christmas many more will be buying on ebay, making it the perfect time to sell. However, as always, people are looking for a bargain and you will probably have more competition.Ebay certainly isn t as good as it used to be and in many cases it works out better to sell elsewhere, but there are still many things that you can sell on ebay for a decent price. You can never be sure what something will sell for though - you might be surprised

Depends what you are selling .. in my opinion ebay now has so many idiots willing to pay over high street prices that a lot of stuff is no longer cheap ... At the same time, the Chinese have worked out that they can sell electronic goods at half UK high street price, ship direct to UK and still make a profit ... (I suspect that some stuff , such as DVD/CD s, have manufacturing costs in the low pence .. as usual the UK consumer is ripped off by the the UK high street (where the price you pay is 90% profit tax)So - if you want to make a profit, DON T sell stuff made in China :-)

Yes I think it is a waste of time, especially DVD s and CD s as you are not allowed to charge postage on the them so you are out of pocket from sending the items as wellWould rather give stuff away on freecycle than line ebays and paypals pocketsOr use Ad-mag as they are free to list with

Well it depends what stuff you are trying to sell. You can check ebay for auctions that have been completed to see what your stuff actually sold for. (its in advanced search options)You are right, they all take a cut. You can avoid paypal fee if they send a money order. But they stick you with the fee for its convince.You could always try to post it locally for free (craigslist.com) to see if that nets you any hits. Then try ebay as your last resort.Ebay will be around for awhile I think. The good thing about ebay is almost anyone/anywhere can buy it from you, so it reaches out to more people. But like I said it all depends on what your selling.

I ll agree that the way eBay is treating it s sellers is pretty sucky these days. I ve moved into other avenues of Internet income in part for that reason. The company is struggling to deal with an increasingly negative image from the public caused by unscrupulous sellers. Who doesn t know someone who s had it stuck to them on eBay?That said, eBay has always been a discount market. In spite of all the low priced books, music, clothes and other things, it s never been very practical to sell anything for under $10. Because of the time it takes to create and submit an item description, higher priced items are the best bet. I know industrial machinery sellers who regularly turn a $20K profit on a single item with maybe $15K invested. Auto parts guys are cleaning up stripping old wrecks and engines for parts. And if you have a quantity of identical items, you can sell them store-style without doing new ads, but you still have to watch those fees.There are more shoppers on eBay than ever before. If you are selling the right item for the right price you re making money. You can t easily make a worthwhile profit if you re buying at regular wholesale prices, though. You ve got to find deals on liquidation or auction stock. Many times I ve paid $50 for a case of something in a live auction that brought me over $500 sold individually on eBay. As an old flea market guy once told me You make your money when you buy .
