Purchasing
Hello all,
I'm Canadian and have in the past noticed Americans are less likely to purchase products I've attempted to sell from Canada. I've never understood this as I've been purchasing from America over ebay and other sites like Audiogon for 20 years. I've sent my money before seeing the actual goods just as everyone does when buying on line. 99.99% of the time everything is as stated and all is good. Such as on-line shopping should be. And now its even better with PayPal making purchasing like full-proof/safe.
Now I live in Thailand (three years now) and have several listings with hundreds of views each but no buyers. I know my pricing is good to great (I just lowered my pricing) but no one will buy. I even have included free shipping.
My question is,,, is it a wast of my time to sell from Thailand on this site? Does anyone know of a service where a firm takes care of selling used or new products on line for others?
I think its clear I'm a little frustrated with no buys,,, especially when I've been the buyer from other countries for 20 years and see little to no risk in it, and have found great buys that could not have been had in my own country at the time.
I'd just like to know what's going on.
Thank you,
