We have seen the best feedback someone can leave for an eBay seller. Here is another nice one from eBay India. Apparently an eBay buyer complains on the community boards that he received a battery ordered from eBay India wrapped in toilet paper and used cigrette case. Moreover the Battery didn’t work with his cellphone. Enough for the buyer to leave a -ve feedback for the seller and write the matter on the community boards.

Not thats weird, Apparently motorola doesn’t want its Ultra-Luxurious handset Aura to retail on eBay! Reports suggest that Mototorla might ask Aura buyers to sign a contract that the handset will never appear on eBay. So much to maintain exclusivity? Well I would say, concentrate your efforts on better products instead!

Things are heating up in the online ecommerce space. eBay India today announced a significantly revised fee structure to better compete with other ecomm sites. A estimated comparison is shown in the chart above.
The new pricing brings a huge discount for tech category sellers (who contribute majority of the sales online). The fee has been reduced to a mere 1% (add to that PaisaPay gateway charges of 4%), bringing the total cost of selling to 5%. Our estimated shows that eBay sellers can now offer the best rates for technology category (or at least match the competition equally). The new structure goes live on 9th July and 1st August in parts.
There are three major players in India who allow third-party vendors to register and sell online. Vendors pay a commission to these sites on successful sale of products. There has also been a significant reduction in listing fees by eBay.in (this is the cost of listing a product on eBay, regardless of its sale). See the discussion on the eBay forums for more.
“eBay realized after three long years (in India) that squeezing the sellers is not the right strategy.” - said Mahaveer Champawat, an eBay India PowerSeller.
