This is going to be required? Will they add a relevant style? I'm putting in 1 Piece.

Always hated that detail for single jackets. I generally just put "Jacket". Who knows if buyers are able to filter it correctly. Yay for more hoops to jump through.

Lululemon's policy of not having a size tag on so many of their items drives me insane.

You know they usually have it hidden somewhere, right? I've only had a handful of items that I couldn't actually find the sizing for.

Yeah, size almost always in the pockets

No pockets on this one. No size markers on the inside hem, too. It has thumb holes from which I can guess they're women's, but I'm not even sure about that.

Isn't the size normally on a 5" neck tag than anyone in their right mind would remove before the first wear?

 

[Reosymes]

Yeah. I'm just venting.

I have nowhere near the number y'all have, but this is my beef on almost all of mine. Have a freaking allowance for sportscoats! They aren't exactly suit separates, but they definitely aren't what 99% of the people searching in "jackets" are looking for.

...If I list it under a Mens Clothing category, wouldn't that make the department Mens?

What kind of perverse gender assuming throwback are you?

They also use those stitched bars as sizing.

Just a PSA for anyone getting fkd by ebay like me for service metrics. My rate was adjusted to average because I had less than 10 snad returns but they still charged me 5%. so $1100 EXTRA for me out of pocket already paid.

I have no idea how the average is 0.50%. That's 5/1000 SNAD returns for CLOTHING bought ONLINE. Something doesn't add up.

Also, and correct me if I am wrong. I am pretty sure ebay charges me final value fees on sales tax collected. How can they legally charge me a fee on sales tax that I pay to the state?

eBay performs as a company so terribly, but they have unrealistic expectations for sellers just to fk us more every single year.

Done bitching.. for now.

Where can you see your SNAD returns in ebay? I'm looking at my seller dashboard but I don't see a section for "items not as described" or similar.

Seller Hub ---> Performance --> Service metrics

Thanks. In the clothing, shoes, and accessories category, the average is showing at 1.79% when I navigate to service metrics.

Yup varies for people. Apparently they group people by similar sales volume and not sure what else. Some people like probably spoo or brian don't even have comparables.
