Tips for a new seller to reduce risk of disputes with buyers?

[Snapolit1]

For BST, learn how to post a scan. It's not that hard. And state a price, not some speech about how you might be willing to sell if someone made the right offer.

Some people post no price and no picture. And, remarkably, their stuff never sells.

If you say OBO here on eBay, be honestly open to a negotiation. Don't list something for $800 obo and then when someone offers $775 flat out reject it. If you want $800 just ask for it. OBO means I am open to moving off my asking price to some meaningful degree.

Don't mess with your scans. There are big sellers on ebay whose scans are clearly monkeyed with. Very obvious.

Avoid a lot of "appears undergraded" kind of stuff. Right now who the hell knows what undergraded.

If there is a delay in paying or shipping just reach out and letter the other side know. All anyone needs. "My wife just had an emergency surgery . . . hoping to get back to shipping next week." Done. If I go away for the weekend often time I will sell buyers it will be posted Monday.

I could go on and on. Sure we all can.
