New ebay.in site info

[esesem]

Had a look @ the new 'ebay.in' site today. I find one thing missing, when I see the seller's name I dont the city he/she is based in. It just says 'India'. (As 'baazee.com' I could see which city a seller was based in) Now this is unfair as I buy ONLY from sellers based in my OWN city, bcoz of bad experiences in the past. I think this should be rectified immediately. I hope somebody will do the needful.

Dear esesem,

Thanks for posting here.

On eBay.in we have a cool feature, which will enable you to search products offered by sellers from your own city.
On any browse page, on your left hand side you will see search options. In those options, one of the options is to search items within a certain kilometer of your pincode. All you need to do is feed in the range of kilometers and your pincode number.

Happy Bidding!

Sir/Madam,
Today when two of my item sold, I found the local charges of courier are applied to national courier charges. That is I have to dispatch the product to all over India at local courier charges.
Item numbers are
8180347302
8180349350
I am based in Mumbai and a buyer has bought from Bangalore and paid by paisa pay and could able to pay local courier charges. Please tell me where the mistake is from my side or at eBay side.
Please help or otherwise I will have to immediately delist all my listing from EBAY.

Dear compubazaar,

Buyers have to select the shipping option themselves while buying the item. So yes, a buyer from Bangalore can, mistakenly, select local courier option while purchasing an item from a Mumbai based seller.

We would request you and all sellers to clearly mention in the item description / payment details that buyers outside of the city you are in have to pay national courier charges.
