Am I the only one getting annoyed with the repeated message that "your prices are xx% higher than similar items"? Unlike the other prompts, to send out offers or shorten my delivery time or whatever, clicking on the x to close the message doesn't get rid of the message for the day, just until I next look at active listings. Ebay, perhaps the items I am selling are xx% better than whatever it is you are comparing my stuff with? I know I am not the most expensive seller, so presumably Ebay are comparing my prices with average prices? Now here's the thing: Unless everyone prices everything exactly the same then prices will cover a range. Roughly fifty percent of items will be priced higher than average and roughly fifty percent of them will be priced lower than average. Am I right in thinking that in Ebay world everything should be priced below average price, to make sure everything sells? ☹️ [End of rant]
