Yup, I think you're right....

If anyone is legitimately out of credit I will buy any 5c card from you to save you depositing, and can still run a sale.....

Good point. Should be $1 for each time for a canceled and restated sale during the promos.

I don't have an issue with people re-running... Personally, I'd rather not due to the possible down time between cancelling and relaunching.... I guess many things are open to manipulation re: sales on COMC... right?

Even if they want to boost their % off???

Some sellers increase the % off as the sale goes along... why discourage that?

And for someone like me, who uses these sales to bring them much closer to even so they can send in more cards. this is not good

I use the sale as a way to sell cards and move merchandise.

So, during this 3 day period, please feel free to send me as many offers as you wish

What is the problem with the sale ?

The only diffrence is the 1 cent charge, or am I missing something ?

I'm surprised they still let people go into negative to be honest. They set a bad precedent with it and people abuse it now. It's only a matter of time before they stop allowing it.

IIRC, I think the negative allowed is a case by case basis.. In my case, I had been going negative and then using the sales to move towards the plus so I could send in more cards. It was a good system until this curve ball.

Nothing big here, after all the sale is only 3 days and not given much of a head start.

But I would have preferred knowing about that change BEFORE I sent in the last batch of cards which were designed to hit during a Spring Cleaning sale.

Im sorry but I really dont understand your problem.

Nothing Big ?? There giving you a sale, It cost 1 cent .

That you have no money in your account is your fault Not Comc.

When they advertise this too early than sales die. Then other people complain.

I think there finally getting it right with these sales.

Dont forget the customers are getting Free shipping maybe are 1 Cent will atleast pay a portion of there cost.

I'm sorry what? I wasn't referring to the grammar either even though the question would be just as fitting. My issue is that they aren't "giving" us anything. I paid them a lot of money to list my cards and a sale costs them zero extra, in fact it should make them money. Why should I feel the need to be appreciative because they let me discount my items?

I think the entire sales system is crap anyways and a net negative to the site. Too many people jack up their cards and then run a 'sale'. It used to work far better when people all just priced their cards for what they wanted and raised or lowered them as needed. Now it is just a big mess.

This is the answer? If I'm in not walking in lock step or a blind homer I need to just walk away? Is that really your stance? I have paid them thousands and thousands of dollars in fees and I don't have the right to criticize? Considering where you live, I would think you'd be a bit sensitive to just walking a company propaganda line but I guess not.

As for a "cheap shot", sorry but the read was painful and it it is on you, not me. Please learn the difference between there/their/they're. I realize that English may not be your first language but those are pretty basic fundamentals.

You have no argument .

You said it yourself youve sold 10,000 cards. I sell that in 3 months.

You try to tell us you have paid so much in fee´s your entitled to more.

What should I say.

du bist ein klugscheisser der sich für was besonderes hält .

I think they want to stop this. It's a good system for you - But not for them as a company. If i were them i personally wouldn't upload any cards until funds can be debted.

That's the way it used to be, but when they moved to this partial processing setup they have now, they decided to allow sellers to go into the negative, on a short time basis. In the before times, you couldn't submit any cards unless you had enough store credit to cover the whole transaction...now you can submit if you have enough to start the transaction, and let you go into the red by the time all your cards are processed - but they'll put a hold on processing any new batches if your account is in the negative when the cards are received.

With the 1 cent sale fee, I'm guessing that they want to encourage more sellers to eliminate this practice and to carry store credit in their accounts, rather than regularly running at a negative until they have just enough to send in more cards...but, that's just a guess.

I'm so confused with these vague complaints. Are they basically complaints that "Oh no they won't let me have a negative balance"? ... because that is a strange complaint. They're not a credit card company.

question about the sale: with the free shipping, if you have cards ready to ship already those will ship for free correct?

These forums are starting to just become a waste of time. It use to be a good place for info and conversation. The fact that 1 penny caused this much controversy is assanine. If the one cent charge bothers someone, then just don't run the sale. What does whining about it do? They are offering free shipping, they won't even recoup half of that by charging a penny. Not to mention the extra man hours they will have to use. And, they definitely should stop letting people go into negative.

my question is, can you still get the $5 shipping credit if you use the free shipping?
