Any seller won't readily say that eBay is an online marketplace free of bad activities performed by scammers. It is certainly inconvenient to get involved into trouble especially when the problem is about anything related to eBay transactions. Sellers have ways to deal with these disagreeable situations; after all, they know they have to stay safe on eBay if they want to have an overall excellent selling experience.

Adding Appropriate Pictures

Pictures are very important in any eBay store. There are plenty of instances in which the sellers have to send another item to the buyer because of a problem, which they could actually avoid. When an item does not have a picture or if the picture is incorrect, it becomes an easy target for those scammers who might immediately buy the product and later complain because they did not receive the right item. The buyer in response will send the right product, if it is available in stock. However, if it is not, the seller will be forced to send refund. Either way, the seller loses.

The best thing to do is not to depend much about the name and description of the item. If it is possible, you can take a picture of the item and add it to your listing. This is the best way on how you will avoid issues related to photos. If you think it is quite a hassle for you to upload your own pictures, you might want to check the picture you are using against the actual items you have in stock. If they are different, better do not use the picture. And if you are dealing with any transaction dealing with any of your items that does not have relevant photos, you take time to tell the client the specific features of the item.

Writing Item Descriptions

Similarly, adding descriptions to the items is important. Do not post products in your listing that do not have accomplished descriptions. These can be easy targets for a scam activity as well. What you need to do is to provide details as comprehensive as possible. These tell the customers what to expect: the condition – new or used, specific features, and others. If you are serious about how to make money in this way then the item descriptions can really help you to boost your sales.

Of course, you might want to include other relevant details as well, such as the shipment methods and costs. And you as the seller should stick with it. This is necessary because there are complaints that arise from these simple things. It might end up hurting your feedback, then your business.
