IT OFTEN HAPPENS THAT A BUYER BIDS, WINS, AND THEN DOESN'T PAY. THOUGH BUYERS SHOULD BE
MORE REASONABLE AND LEARN NOT TO WASTE THE SELLERS' AND OTHER BIDDERS' VALUABLE TIME,
WE UNDERSTAND THAT SOMETIMES EVEN REAL BUYERS FAIL TO PAY.
BUT WHAT ABOUT THE GHOSTS? IN MOST CASES THEY HAVE '0' FEEDBACK, AND OFTEN WITH 2/3/4/5/6
FEEDBACK 'RECEIVED MONTHS OR YEARS BACK'. WE ALL KNOW WHO THEY ARE, IF SOMEONE DOESN'T
KNOW AND EBAY PRETENDS NOT TO KNOW---I'M TAKING ALL THE RESPONSIBILITIES OF DECLARING
THOSE GHOSTS AS 'SOME SELLERS ON EBAY, WHO WERE BASICALLY GROCERS THAT ALL ON A SUDDEN HAVE
LEARNT HOW TO USE A COMPUTER OR INTERNET'. CAN'T STOP THEM, CUZ EBAY WON'T LET A SINGLE
BUYER BE KICKED OUT---BUYERS ARE EBAY'S ASSETS AFTER ALL, LOL---SO EBAY DECLARES THEM FIT
AND FINE IF THEY HAVE A MOBILE NUMBER. [AFTER ALL ITS THE SELLERS' A***** THAT ARE BATTERED].
RESULT---FIRST, WE WASTE TIME AND MONEY---AND MORE IMPORTANT, OTHER BUYERS THINK THOSE
GHOSTS ARE OUR PET DOGS.
EBAY INDIA, SHOW YOUR GOOD INTENTIONS. FORGET EMAIL IDS, FORGET MOBILE NUMBERS, FORGET
VERIFICATION---MONEY SPEAKS THE LOUDEST, SO CHARGE A LOW ONE-TIME-FEE TO GET REGISTERED
AND TO BE ELIGIBLE TO PLACE BIDS. SAY YOU CHARGE RS 200 DURING REGISTRATION, AND THIS FEE
CAN BE ADJUSTED WITH THE BUYER'S FIRST 5/10 PURCHASES--MAKING SURE THAT AT LEAST FOR 5/10
TIMES THE BUYER ISN'T GONNA BE A GHOST, LOL. THIS WILL HELP I PROMISE---SO FAR I KNOW INDIAN
GROCERS, THEY WOULD LOOK ONLY FOR FREE 'NASTY GAMES', BUT WILL THINK A THOUSAND TIMES
BEFORE SPENDING EVEN 5 BUCKS TO DISTURB OTHERS.
I THINK ALL CLEAN SELLERS WILL AGREE.
