Wow! That is a new one. I didn't realize you had to have a 10 rating to be able to use Buy It Now. Has that always been the case?

Yep.

Although if you sell 120-plus items a week I can't see why this would be an issue.

It's a very good rule. The mischief makers can not super easily go on ebay and reek havoc with bins with this rule.

i was just suprised by it. i'm at 7 with my new account, and since it has been almost 5 years for my other account it would have been mute point with that account since i'm well over 3500 positives now. its really no biggie, i'm at 7 for just purchasing, but will be over 10 within a week or so.

Buy a bunch of stuff, pay with Paypal and you should have 10 feedbacks within a couple days.

Sanmar,,,,,,,your WORDS Ring in my ears,, the word,,,,,,,purchasing,,,,,,and that is EXACTLY what these people are doing on e bay,,,,Purchasing,,,,,,HAS nothing to do with ,,,,,,sorry to burst the bubble,,,,,But "winning"? Let's get REAL here....They bought.....plain and simple....


1.Bidders NEED to !. BEFORE Buying. Thank you.
2.NPB's have No rights,, Posting. After the fact lies. BLOCKED by e bay. Upon final filing of NPB.
3.Naru's . Soooo, LONG! after 3,,,, DIFFERENT, sellers file NPB's. Negs do Nothing to NARU them. filing DOES.
4.A current bidders Geographical location i.e. STATE/ZIP/CITY needs to be known California cool Shades.
5. E bays feedback system is Insanely . A cooling period of F/B like the 20 days of filing for fees back. Soon many give up. Works for E bay. They keep X's 1000's of dollars.

I have been buying items for our store so far, but now we are beginning to use this id to sell. Sorry if I didn't make that clear. My intentions were to use it to buy things first until we had built a bit of a rep before we sold. I had been using my other account with 3500+ positives to sell, but now it's time to let the store take its first selling steps.

Obviously it didn't affect much since I already have bids on both items I listed yesterday.
