I might have the shortest lived tenure as a top-rated seller ever...

pastmyshades · 06-23-2012, 08:49 PM

I finally got my top-rated seller status on this past evaluation. I'm barely making the DSR requirements for the shipping time and shipping price categories. Weird because I ship everything within 1 business day and I offer free shipping on my store items and charge actual shipping + $0.75 for supplies on all my auctions

I sold my Ipod to a person who types in very broken english on Tuesday. After he buys it he asks for me to make it get there by friday for his son's birthday. I live in NJ, he lives in NY so I told him since I am shipping priority mail, it should be there by Friday.

Naturally, Saturday morning I get a message from him saying that "I'm not very nice". I check the tracking # on the package and it is in Sioux Falls, South Dakota.

This guy has no idea what I'm saying when I try to explain that it wasn't my fault. My DSR's are gonna get hit. This guy might even leave me negative feedback despite the package getting there in 4 business days. What a joke.

Sh*t like this makes me despise eBay.

How does a package going from NJ to NY end up in SD?
