Reading AuctionBytes: eBay Update: Stellar Sellers, USPS Flat-Rate Box, Return Policy
eBay is running a Stellar Seller Sweeps in which it will award winners a $5,000 prize monthly between March 1 and September 30, 2009. To enter, sellers simply tell eBay their success story; they may attach photos or videos. Current entries can be seen here , and more information is online here .
eBay told developers it has updated its services to including two new USPS services for a small, flat-rate box , and new UK and DE shipping services. The USPS introduced the new $4.95 flat-rate box in January.
Reminder: eBay had told sellers they would be required to be in compliance with its new returns policy by mid-March. There hasn't been a reminder since January , however. The policy states that, beginning in mid-March, all listings are required to include handling time and a specified return policy.
