All items must have a 14 day or longer return policy? Thats insane..... and all items must have 1 day handling time.

It is also a requirement to leave positive feedback to the buyer within six hours of payment, to send in a bubble envelope with delivery confirmation, free shipping is required, and must be sent out the next day, overnight, meaning the item must be in the buyers hands within 48 hours of payment. Further, any item over $250 requires hand delivery by the seller.

I look forward to keeping my 100% positive feedback and 4.9 to 5 star rating.

Dumb on the 14 day return policy. I can see it being for electronics or other merchandise, but not all products should be under this policy. So a player gets hot, sells for a high amount and then cools off 13 days after the item was received and they can get a refund?

Thankfully you all will have a different alternative in the next several months.

1 day handling time is equally insane. Not everyone makes their living off of ebay - I specify 3 days to be safe and almost always have things taken care of in 2. Yet another reason I'm hoping to move a ton of my collection at this weekend's White Plains show.

Absolutely not. Going to be different than any site you have ever seen. I know we will have our doubters just like you, but you all will see the proof soon enough.

Now back to hating on eBay....damn changes!

Well, technically we are hiring someone to design the site because if I did it, it would be covered in Blue/Yellow (Brewers).

We all need it. Will get into more details later once we have our beta site up. I don't want to take away from the OP's post so I will stop posting about it.

The 14 day return policy is no big deal. A buyer could do that at anytime before this rule came into place because the buyer always wins with paypal

1 day handling is also not a big deal, if you have time to list and sell you have time to print a label and put it in your own mailbox to be picked up.

Why does it even matter to be a top seller? I hardly ever sell on ebay, so I dont know of any advantages, but I buy a lot and could give a rats ars about the seller being "Top Rated". Just gimme a seller with a decent feedback score and if the guy has a card I want, I'll buy it.

Are there perks for top sellers?

I wish you the best and I will use your service if I can get ebay prices there. I just feel like I have heard this now 6 million times at this point (as you are fully aware of I am sure). And I fall for them every time :lol:

I don't see what the big deal is if you're selling cards. People can always return a card or file a claim way after the 14-days stated. And you should be able send them off the next day(you just have to print the label). More than a few mailers fit in a standard mailbox, so no "I can't go to the PO every day excuse". And you can always schedule a pickup if you're shipping out a lot of packages.

It sucks for us that have items that are made to order. One day to ship is impossible on most of them. ::facepalm::
