Oh...I have had a doozy of a day! I have been cloth diapering for a very long time. And, because not every diaper works for every baby, you have to sell off to recoup your losses. I have stellar feedback. On eBay, on other boards, etc. I am proud of my ability to list items honestly. But, this past week, I had my first experience with a less than wonderful transaction.
You know that little voice that tells you something is wrong? Well, I heard it clearly the day I answered a certain mama's email. She really wanted the diapers I had listed, but I was full of misgivings. Sigh.... I caved and one paypal transaction later, they were on her way to her. I was very thorough with my listing. So, I almost fainted when I saw her neutral feedback. Oh, the feelings of anger, hurt, and heartburn that ran through me!! I went on a carb binge to drown my sorrows...It was that bad.
One brownie (or two) later, I pulled myself together and contacted a Moderator. Enough was enough. Days have passed and I am not sure how this will turn out. But, since then, other awesome transactions have passed. I do not feel the sting so bad. My warning is this, listings are subjective to everyone's opinions. If I have learned anything it is to always approach new buyers with caution. Ask more questions, whether you are the buyer OR the seller. There is a reason why so many forums have rules. Please obey them. They keep everyone sane. And, me away from carbs. Until later!! BWL
WOW that is sad im so sorry :( hope everything gets worked out
