I am getting more eBay sales from the revised listings. Slight issue, I cut the price of the slowest moving item I have to be under the cheapest listing, and I ended up losing 32 cents on the sale. That does not include the cost of the enveloped I mailed it in.

The amount of client work I am doing is far more than I anticipated. To help get through it, I have been relying heavily on caffeine. Well, the caffeine finally wore off, and I fell asleep before getting much done.

Today was another day of client work, but at least things are settling down. It’s to the point where I get work, and then report back when the work is complete. There’s not a lot of interaction with other people, and I am free to do whatever necessary to just get the work completed and delivered. Even though things are getting better, I have still be ignoring eBay, and ended the day with 0 sales.

The nice thing about today was I found a few things regarding the issues I was looking into. I was hoping I could complete something and make the status call just a little bit happier. That didn’t happen, as the what I found had no affect, and the issues still occurred.

It’s Saturday, and I didn’t even get to sleep in. Looks like I got online way earlier than everyone else, though. I am guessing they all switched to Pacific time since it was noon before people really begin showing up as available. We had a 5:00pm call followed by a 7:00pm call. Even though it was the weekend, we still screamed.

I am hating the client work. Not only is everything an emergency, but everyone who gives me work wants theirs done first. Status calls turn into screaming matches, everything we do it heavily criticized, and we are passing the blame for everything that doesn’t get done.

It took a week, but access was finally granted. This will allow me to start doing client work. It a lot more phone calls in the morning to finally get everything I needed, as shortly after, I started getting requests for work to complete.

It was bound to happen sooner or later, but the time has come for eBay complaints. I have had 3 items damaged. 1 was completely broken, but was less than $8, so it didn’t really break the band to issue the refund. The others were partially damaged. The plan for those is to offer a partial refund and let the buyers keep the items.

The big disadvantage of premium plugins is they cannot automatically check for updates again the WordPress plugin repository. However, that can be overwritten to check updates against a different server. One of the improvements I would like to make to my version of the plugin is the ability to stay up to date without having to log in to an account somewhere, download the new version, and then manually upload to your site.

Today I was mainly focused on getting the client work issues resolved. I dedicated the entire day to just work on that, and got nowhere. I am going in circles with no end in sight. On the plus side, I got a sale from one of my ecommerce sites. It’s the second time I sold something outside the United States. This one is going to the UK.
