- list shoes with the box and then do not include the box in the shipment.
- do not inspect well and state in their auction that the article of clothing does not have any snags, holes, stains, or spots, and when it arrives it does have snags, holes, stains, or spots. Chips, flea bites, cracks, etc. goes here too.
- do not list adequate descriptions in their listings. I need to know if the trousers are low, mid, or high rise and the inseam length. Whether or not they are boot-cut, wide-leg, straight-leg, or skinny-leg also helps if the photos are horrible. Knowing if it needs to be dry cleaned or is machine wash is also important.
- do not wash/dry clean clothing before selling it and do not list it as dirty laundry in their listing.
- list used items as new items.
- use one blurry photo, all blurry photos, or no photos at all.
- try to pass knock-offs as 100% authentic.
- list out of stock items.
- shill and re-list right away.
- significantly overcharge for shipping and handling when I know it doesn't cost that much even if they live in the sticks and have to drive to the PO or to get tape, boxes, and packing material that is not for free.
- ship items with a post class of less than what was paid to increase their profit margin.
- say they will ship within a certain time frame and do not.
- price gouge on event tickets and/or sell fake event tickets.
