I'm beginning to wonder if there's something going on in the Clothing Shoes and Accessories category I should know about.
I connected with the wife of a local cowboy boot distributor and bought a lot of his samples. Great boots, totally unworn, and got them cheaply enough even for eBay. So I listed two pair as a trial balloon.
Both pairs of cowboy boots sold...maybe. One "buyer" has an invalid email address and wants me to ship the boots to a physical address not confirmed with PayPal. The other "buyer" is having snit fits because I do require a Confirmed address for PayPal payments. Looks like both sales have fallen through.
Are CSA buyers just this out of it in general? Admittedly it is a small sample size, but it's discouraging. Or is it flake bait to start items in CSA at 99 cents?
