Be very careful if something isn't going as it should during returns, for example the item has arrived but isn't updated on the return page - if you contact eBay regarding it they might open a case on their own out of nowhere, like a jumpscare - and you are suddenly out of all options to do anything, options that you normally should have access to. The case will most likely end up completely locked even though you did nothing wrong, and you now find yourself in an even more stressful return situation... Sometimes be careful with contacting support, if it isn't pointless it can also backfire badly. Also great show as always!!
Hi Jon & Jenna - You two have a Merry Christmas and a Great New Year - I listen a lot, but don't comment much as I'm usually listing, packing, or out sourcing. Love your ending music!
Last night mine was an overview for 2024 it said I'm in the top 10% for mens clothes. Top performer alert. you've outperformed 90% of in your category. Sounds awesome to me! I liked the sum up of the year. Even if they told everyone the same thing, if I didn't know any better by watching this video it at least at the moment boosted my confidence & motivation. i think if ebay purposely told everyone the same thing it could have been a way to boost motivation to keep sellers going and trying to sell in 2025.
The 5% is easy to achieve in my opinion. It's all a matter of perspective. For example, the top 1 or 2 sellers in a category usually account for 80-90% of all sales in said category. This heavy weighting at the top means you only have to be in the top 5% of the remaining 10-20% of sales. I'm hoping I'm explaining that correctly.
There are scorpions in southern Ky too! I went on a church camp trip to Land between The Lakes when I was about 10. The counselor warned us not to leave wet things around. I got out of the pool, tossed my suit in a basket under the bunk. At midnight that night I found out she was right! About 5 of them! Didn't get me.. but wow!
well im not in the top 5 it seems im in the top 10 this is what they told me You’re in the top 10% for Small Kitchen Appliances Top performer alert! You’ve outperformed 94% of sellers in your category. Keep up the great work.
I have to the quality listing report and always has me in the top .01% of most categories. I have only done $20,000 this year so I always found it hard to believe.
I was told I am in the top 5% for selling plates. I have sold a lot of plates this year, but I am a new seller so I have my doubts about having enough sales to be in the top 5%. 🤷♀️
I think it is your sales amount for a single item. I don't sell light therapy but I did sell a 1,600 dollar infrared machine. I'm in top 5. Only been selling 2 months. For me you should be telling people to try selling more in that category. As I'm sure those listing's in category will rake higher. Also you instead of taking a possible lose for a 50 dollar return... that you can see is on the way. You're telling people to do what you did and take a bad ding. I really enjoy your wife and yourself... In moments, that you guys are real you make me laugh while gathering ebay seller opinion data... Everything is the way you look at it Your vibe and direction.. is to me moving in a strange direction.
listen its nothing more than A morale booster thats it just ebay trying to retain sellers as alot of sellers have been quiting

Sorry Techsports
Great live Jon!
Last time I checked the LQR, I was #1 or #2 in all my main categories. I did not receive the top 5 message from eBay.
I have to the quality listing report and always has me in the top .01% of most categories. I have only done $20,000 this year so I always found it hard to believe.
Since it's broken down by category, and it takes the top 5% of each category (thousands of possible categories), it could loop a ton of people in. 🤔
I was told I am in the top 5% for selling plates. I have sold a lot of plates this year, but I am a new seller so I have my doubts about having enough sales to be in the top 5%. 🤷♀️
