Building feedback

[JoshA]

Alright, so I have an Ebay account that is now 8 months old, got 14 feedbacks from buying random items and I have sold some things aswell already, but none left me feedback.

Now my plan is to build some good feedback by selling 'free shipping' 1 cent items, like led lights and stuff. I mean, postage won't be that much for me and no one will complain because they got their stuff for free. Is what I'm thinking anyway. I'll be overly nice to them as that is what Ebay wants you to do.

My question is, will Ebay tolerate this? Or is this just as bad as selling "a picture of a tree, delivered to your inbox."?

Yeah, they tolerate it; I do it all the time. Just be carefull and gradually build up sales, don't list a load of penny auctions at once.

But remember there are some idiots who don't realise you're giving them free stuff and complain about the silliest things (Like it not doing what they thought it does). Once I was giving out free iPod Nano docks and I got a few ungratefull *** ***** who gave me some grief over their own stupidity

[dburnside]

yes dont expect people to be grateful, even though it only cost a penny they will still give u neg or low ratings if they arent happy

[jerseykat1]

yes people suck.

Oh well, thanks for your comments. Hope my buyers are going to be happy with the free crap I'm going to hand out :P
