Merchant's dilemma
OK, going to rant a bit, most of you might not be able to relate, but some of you can.
I run 2 businessess. One of them is a security business and I buy and sell a whole lot of knives, sharpening supplies, razors, etc and anything else I think I can sell for profit.
I buy from a WIDE variety of sources: ebay, here, knife forums, etc.
My major pet peeve is sellers who will send a box with no receipt and no username. I receive about 7 packages per day. There is no way in hell I remember what I ordered last week.
So I'll get a package from Jane Doe, with an item in it, no note...and I have to think back and go through PayPal records and everything else to find out it's from Skunk59 on Ebay!
I am going to have to start requesting that people include some kind of receipt giving their username, forum and price paid! I know they usually sell to sweet little Emma Lu who buys maybe one thing online a week and eagerly awaits it, knowing full well what's inside...but that ain't me.
Pricing is critical, too, since I need that to determine what to charge.
Anyhow, thanks for listening to this one merchant's woes.
