eBay My World: spurs_autographed_programmes( 1582)

Huge Tottenham Hotspurs fan, have been going since I was about 10 and now my son is following as well.

Mostly autographed Spurs items, all collected in person by me. Photo proof is provided with nearly every auction, proof that we are one of the few very genuine autograph sellers on ebay.

Bits for various hobbies, music and dvd's

I love selling and buying through Ebay. The experience can be great for all but the frustration that arises from poor buyers seems to be increasing. I tend to package the items and have them ready so that as soon as you have paid they generally go out the same day. How many times do I get a last minute bidder who then takes a week to pay. Polite reminders go out and still no communication. When it comes to feedback I feel that i have suffered with this new rating system from ebay because it looks like I am chasing payment, where my listing states payment / contact MUST be made within 3 days. Foreign bidders NEVER read the listings either. I do not like to post abroad but will consider if you ask me prior to the end of the auction. I would never just expect an ebayer to do something that i have not asked for against their listing instructions without some form of contact first. Anyway enough of my moaning, I cannot complain because Ebay has been such a great experince for me.

I only accept postal orders and paypal payments. Sorry but I have had a couple of cheques that i have received that have bounced or buyers not reading the listings and getting abusive when i politely return their cheques. I do not want my feedback to suffer because people do not read the listings carefully. I truely do my best to be clear with my descriptions and requirements.

I generally post the same day your payment is received. Sometimes I might wait an additional day if i am waiting on a qauntity of payments to come in and I am sure you all appreciate the time and effort running back and forth to the PO. I an now taking the stand that if you do not pay for three days or more and do not communicate with me then I should do the same in postage. Why provide you with a service that you cannot do the same for me. I truely enjoy the ebay experience but waiting for payment is hugely frustrating as i try and turn all sales around within 24 hours. My feedback will confirm the time and speed of my efforts. Again enough of my moanong.

Speak to me, I might be able to help resolve an issue before leaving negative or neutral feedback. At some stage we are all going to make an error be it yours or mine. I am a genuine ebayer that is looking to continue the postive side of ebay for a good time yet and I am approachable when dealt with politely. Be rude, aggressive or demanding does not get you anywhere.

Feel free to contact me about any of my listings prior to bidding. Once you have placed a bid this is your confirmation of understanding of the nature of the item listed and that it meets your requirements.
