EBay guaranteed shipping

[gzman]

If the seller ships on time, and, the carrier delivers late, eBay takes the hit, not the seller...Also, eBay recently implemented a change..to get the highest/ONLY TRS discount(a mere 10 percent) must offer 30 day free returns..this is on a per item basis..still not sure how to maintain TRS if not offering free returns on some or most of items...A year ago the TRS discount went from 20 to 10 percent...Using the extra money to offer guaranteed shipping, and, more promos...

I gave up years ago trying to get discounts. For what we sell, there is no reason for all those hoops we have to jump through.

I have a guaranteed delivery item that's late. But shipping was free.

LOL, looks like we already have people that figured out how to get around giving a refund.

EBay will allow you to send back for refund and I believe they will pay return shipping too.

I wouldn't feel right doing that, and I honestly don't care if it's late.
