Safe To Buy From E Bay in Coronavirus ?

[dottiedodah]

Just wondering is there any (small) chance of catching the virus on the parcel do you think? If had been in an infected persons home for example before they became ill?

I'm a small business eBay seller and have stopped for now. I'd have to go to the post office etc and would rather not risk it. I know lots of other resellers are still working though.

I've taken everything off except a few pairs of BN white crocs - it's only healthcare workers who buy those anyway so I've left them up in case anyone needs them. The clothes are all off for now.

Bear in mind that as soon as people can get back out, they will. They will need clothes and shoes. Other people will want the non-essentials they couldn't shop for before. So things will get back to normal. My advice to sellers would be to use this time to get some really good pictures of your stock and think about the keywords people will be using to search for things in the coming months.

I think gym wear 💪🏾 sellers have mentioned sales with jigsaws games etc. I only sell clothes. Luckily it's a side income so I'm fortunate to be able to stop. I feel for people who do this full time.

I bought a jigsaw last week, I put it in quarantine for a few days before opening it. #paranoid.

Well, I ordered 3 things from ebay yesterday, didn't give it a second thought (had to get them from there as the shops are all shut)

I shut my eBay shop as I don't want to have to go to the post office or even out at all, during this. I don't regard what I sell as essential in any way shape or form and I know I'm not the only reseller to have closed.
