Has anyone else received or responded to this latest missive from Half.com? They keep extolling our wonderful sales record as their reason for needing more personal info from us. Yet, our sales have been dropping steadily for months. They sound like they want to share "selling options" when they probably just want more personal info. I just don't see how my buyers are going to feel any safer about buying from me if Half has more info. It's not like they put a little icon next to my ID that says I'm "approved" by Half. Sorry forthe rant but I'm tired of getting these beat-around-the-bush requests for more and more personal info.
From their e-mail:
"You have been doing well as a seller on Half.com.
In an effort to ensure the continued safety of both our buyers and sellers
on Half.com we have instituted a buyer/seller protection system. As part
of this system, we require a successful Half.com seller to provide us with
additional information about themselves or their business as a means by
which to ensure the continued commitment of Half.com sellers to Half.com
and its community of users.
Please send an email to our Business Development Team at [email protected]
to discuss, with one of our account acquisition managers, additional
selling options on Half.com. Failure to contact Business Development could
result in the possible temporary suspension of your account.

Half.com username, company name if applicable, phone number and the product

Yah I received one of these letter the other day which makes it about 6 for the past year that they have sent me. Each time my sales have not increased so I don't know why they keep sending it. Not only that they have all my information on file why do they keep sending that letter over and over again.
I responded today to the letter staing this is about the 6th time I recieved it and have no clue what they are talking about since sales have been down since 9-11

one time we got a resquest for more info "to add to our secuity", because they had"noticed we were having such a good month". We had been on vacation & had $7.00 worth of sales.
