    The issue is I have just counted my printed and paid for postage slips and have 84 from the last 21 days that have no name to apply to the mug, I have sent messages requesting the name but alas have had no reply.

    So I guess I am going to get a whole load of refund requests after xmas and I presume I have lost 84x£2.90 in all ready paid postage that will never get used.

    I state quite clearly in the item description that the customer must send me the name required on the mug either through notes in checkout or via the ebay message system.

    Anyway I shall not be doing the same next year that is for sure, and have now chucked ebay into holiday mode.

    Is there a better way to deal with this? I suppose what I should have done is just cancel every order at point of sale where a name was not sent but hey ho you live and learn I guess.

    We stopped personalising products on ebay begining of this year, too much hassle for the price points. What we used to do with customers who didnt leave personallisation was message them asking for info, if we didnt recieive the info within 24 hours we sent out a large letter (proof of delivery) to the customer with a letter asking them to contact us through ebay etc. Saved on destroying your despatch metrics and the customer was impressed we had gone to so much trouble. Worked for us..

    It's funny on ebay; when you sell a non-personalised design, they will always manage to find the message box to add a name for free.
