well ... so what if ebay usa says it is okay ??? ebay even allows a person to sell pubic hair ... but here this is india ... i do believe that it is not a bad idea that there is a watch dog ... but does it mean that they can remove any listing without giving any valid reason ???
how do they expect the seller to rectify the mistake ???
i have never sold anything on baazee except for women's apparel ... i cannot find what can be wrong in the listing ,,, . there can be typo errors but at least let us know that ! ... www.baazee.com/1hi2k

Dear Friends & Co-Sellers,

Why We Are Bound To Follow:

A)Baazee wants to be become "eBay"- Which is impossible in India.
b)Baazee says foreign buyers do not understand the format of baazee.I would like to ask baazee that how much is the % of international buyers on baazee?(Over all in all categories) Not more than 10% than why you wants to loose 90% Indian market business? Why don't eBay changes like "Baazee"??? Even Indian don't understand the format of "eBay".
c)Changes and developments are always welcome but that doesn't means that you rip or copy from others.My be in there region those format is comfortable to them but dear baazee its India and we are Indians don't forget this,easy and flexible method runs easily & smoothly over here.
d)Even lot of affords you people are unable to stop the increment graph of fake bidder 'n' buyers.
e)By closing re-list facility what you wants that each seller subscribe to "BulkUploadTool"to increase your income.Which is totally unfair.
f)You ppl says that the commission of Paisa Pay and CC is a hidden charges for buyers("ITS LIKE A CHEATING")I objected this statement Coz a person who is having a credit card he/she knows very well that the service charges will be charged if they use there credit card.(1.5-2%)charges is charged all over either credit card or Online transfer.but you people charging 4% for what?
g)Your Community watch,sellersupport are behaving like they are ruling us.They even don't know how to take decision.Better hire some villager and tell them to handle seller or buyer problems,I think they will do the better job than the baazee team.
h)Multiple auctions should be sold on lowest bid value,are we here to sell our product at Re 1? What's the sense of making these type of silly changes?
I)Removing one paisa promotion will be very expensive for baazee,1 paisa creates a effect in buyers mind and it increase the sale in simple words buyer is crazy to bid at one paisa auction, now what?we start the product on normal price, buyer will think four times before buying the product even he also think that may the seller is charging too much through normal bid.
No craze no sale !!!!

BETTER IF ALL SELLERS GATHER ON A ONE PLATFORM AND DISCUSES ALL THIS MATTER AND FIND THE PROPER SOLUTION WITH BAAZEE ELSE WE WILL LOOSE THE BUSINESS.

Steps To Distruction:
1. Reducing auto-listing from 5 to 2
2. Making 48 hrs fraud listing drama.( even in editing that means if you are already live and you need to make changes then wait for more 2 days to see it live and if the end date is the next day forget the special listing fees)
3. Removing auto -listing
4. Making multiple listing questionable.
5. Special listing fees increased by 400 % ( 25/35 for priority lisitng to 100rs)
and Most unimaginable Sellers to bear the surcharge.
Now if we icrease that charge in our product price then the buyers buying through dd/cheque payment will be at total loss.

OF late, Baazee has been replying the "New" Cafe to all the Postings with something as vague as "Your message has been sent to concerned Department...."

What Exactly is this Concerned Department?

Baazee is going nuts imitating Ebay...

And we are going nuts trying to help out Baazee from losing its Unique Identity as India's Premier Auction Portal

HAHA, I just tried to open the listigs and the baazee listing opened in like 4 seconds, but the 1st ebay listing in the above list, did not open for like 90 seconds!!! Welcome to eBay guys! We can just hope baazee does not turn like eBay very soon. Ans yes, I absolutely agree with his views, because the same item is being sold on ebay very easily. Baazee has just removed all the systems that were different from eBay (even though they were very useful) without getting all the good systems practiced on eBay. This has created major problems for all sellers.

Maybe its the people at eBay who are forcing Baazee to change all the systems to make Baazee an exact copy of eBay! But doing it in such a irresponsible, pathetic and unplanned way is not all good for a site of eBay's stature. They seem to be in no mood to hear anything from their Indian Management/Employees, especially after the MMS issue, and just order them to strictly follow whatever they say. X-( So bad an unthoughtful of them!

I can just hope that this chaos ends at the earliest and we can have all the so called "Best Practices" of eBay on Baazee ASAP. :_| Infact, I personally feel many of Baazee's practices were BETTER than ebay's "best" practices. :^O Take for example the Privilage buyers club, Hot selling, 1 paisa stock clearance, etc. which helped the buyers a lot and everyone loved them (hope they stay!). Then, there was auto-relist faciltiy which saved sellers a lot of time, priority EL for selling low value items with some ELs, multiple quantity listings with secondary category facility, lower featured listing charges which not only gave more sales to sellers but also more EL fees and commission to baazee, and many other such features.

The sellers are unhappy can be proven with a look at the cafe threads, and the loss for baazee can easily be proven by small example... just hava a look at the Featured items page on baazee, 15 days ago there were over 800 item with featured listing, today there are less than 200!!! So a loss of approx Rs.50000 per week for baazee!!! 😮 Ans that is even after accounting for the increase in the Featured EL fees (Old: 800 x 100 = 80000. New: 200 x 150 = 30000. Net Loss = 50000)

So can eBay answer where is Baazee heading now? How long can eBay's Indian Operations bear such losses created due to mistakes(so called decisions!) made by some people sitting in the US who donot, and just refuse to understand their Indian counterparts and the Indian market? ?:| :_|

I just sincerely hope that the people at eBay get back their heads stable on their shoulders, and see to it that baazee really turns into a great site that it was on the path of becoming(before they came in and took it off path). And yes... not to forget... solve all the woes of so many sellers complaining about hundreds of things that are going wrong on Baazee, and inturn be happier as they can get the highest returns on their investments in Baazee.

Good Luck eBay.
