Title: Possible to pay lower bond as new seller?
Post by: bananafandango on April 04, 2013, 09:38 pm
Hey everyone,

Has anyone ever heard of or experienced personally a situation in which a new seller could pay less than $500 for their seller's bond?

Probably not, and if you don't have even 500$ in cashflow I don't think you should be selling.

No.  It's the same price for everyone, and like Theophilus Jones mentioned, if you can't afford the vendor bond, how will you be able to afford keeping your product in stock, buying packaging supplies, shipping, etc.?

Mate if you dont have the 500 no chance can you sell, what you gonna do when alot of your clients dont bother to pay and wait 17 days until it goes to auto FE. This happens to me so many times and you got to expect to lose some gear if your ordering it in. My friend its hard and you need a cash flow

Ha! Thanks folks. I was asking because someone was trying to scam me with an offer to pay a lower bond, so I was trying to get an idea of whether or not it was real. I am fully aware that it's fake now. No worries about cash flow, supplies, etc. All good in that department.  ;D
