Ebay listing of the day! 7/9/09

NWT GYMBOREE LOTS OF DOTS ORANGE CLOGS TODDLER 8 HCTS

These super cute shoes just jumped out at me when I was looking for a listing of the day!  The bright orange color is showcased nicely against the stark white background and the picture really captures how cute they are.  I like that you also show the tag but have it tucked neatly behind the shoes so it doesn’t detract from the item.  Really great first impression! 

In my personal experience Gymboree shoe size varies so much that I think a measurement of the shoes would also be helpful to include.  Just something simple like “These shoes measure 6.5 inches from toe to heel.”  I often forget to include this in my own listings and I get lots of ASQs wanting measurements (you’d think I’d learn, but I don’t!).

Something that really intrigued me was this in your description, “NEW!!!  5% rebate on THIS PURCHASE when you subscribe to my newsletter!!!”  However, I don’t know exactly how that would work.  Is there a link that would explain it, or could more info go into the listing?  I’d like to know if it’s an instant savings, coupon, refund from you, etc.  Other than that, I think it is a GREAT marketing tool!  I love to save whatever and whenever I can, and I’d definitely be subscribing before I purchased!

I like your blurb about the 5 star customer service experience.  It makes me feel confident that you will address any issues that might come up.  In my mind, though, that is in contradiction to this statement regarding shipping, “Any loss or damage incurred as a result of shipping is the buyer’s responsibility. Discuss shipping problems directly with the post office.”  That gives me the impression that should anything go wrong, I am on my own, which to me is not 5 star customer service.  I do understand your point, believe me, but I think that section could be reworded to sound a little softer.  Perhaps something like, “Shipping insurance is always offered to protect your purchase.  Should you decline to purchase insurance, I unfortunately will be unable to resolve shipping damage claims on your behalf.”

Overall I think this is a very nicely done listing and I wish you the best of luck!
