Can't list

[thewatchtrunk]

I was told I couldn't list more than 5 of the same item or I had to pay $350 to be a dealer. I'm not a dealer, just an individual. I re-listed with adjustments which required me to recreate my time consuming post. Now I don't see any my posts.

Please help.

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news but those are the rules set by the site owner. The membership issue doesn’t necessarily mean you have a store etc.

Wait, why has my post been deleted again when I abided by the rules? The person who contacted me said I could not list more than 5 of the same item so I listed within those guidelines. Thanks.

It wasn’t deleted but was moved offline. Simply changing the quantity doesn’t negate the dealer status. Selling many multiple of the same item in the same condition is not what the gold membership is intended for.

I just sell from my personal collection... i am not a dealer. Are you saying because I have more than 5 of one knife, now I am a dealer status?? I mostly sell a knife here and there. It doesn't seem fair to charge me $350.

Selling 30 of the exact same item and 12 of another same item meets the criteria put forth by the owner of the site.

I’ll alert him as it’s his final decision Spark

I understand. I relisted with lower quantity to meet the rules. I am not in a rush to sell all of them. Outside of these knives, I usually only have a few from my personal collection as you can see from my past sales.

Having 30 of the same knife then reselling them isn't a "private collection"

I have stated many times, I do not intend to sell 30 knives at once. I literally sold about 5 knives here last year and inherited this collection and thought I’d offer to this community vs eBay. I see know that you guys are just greedy so cancel my membership immediately.

It doesn't matter if you intend to sell them at once or spread out, way to miss the point. I heartily suggest you take it to eBay since you've started a claim process for your membership. Enjoy your listing fee for each product and giving them a percentage of each sale.
BTW,
30x$55 = 1650, and 12.9% of that is $212.85
12x125 = 1600 and 12.9% of that is $193.5
For slow learners, that totals $406.35 before the listing fees.

Talk about greedy, LMAO. Sounds more like you got caught and are trying to flip this on us instead of doing the right thing.

That's fine Eric Stair. The internet doesn't forget. I'd have gladly refunded your membership before this dispute came in too, as you are exactly who our community does not need.
