Hi,

May I know what are you selling in Gmarket?

In Gmarket you got to prepare to sell very cheap and your goods must be good too that's what Gmarket buyer expect.Gmarket themself also selling a lot of theirs goods there and they are the power selling.They can give themself very good rating to attract buyer to buy from them.
Every item you sell they tax you 12% and even postage also they tax ,real blood sucker.
You can't make much money from Gmarket and I heard from some sellers if they do not like the seller they can block their sale.Wah scary.

The few koreans that in charge of Gmarket in Singapore are quite arrogant and short temper,the way they behave as though they are smarter than you.Nobody dare to offend them because they are the only auction platform that Singapore sellers can sell their goods.They are getting all Yahoo customer

Ebay system is a bit messy while Gmarket will let you load your goods there for a year and if got sale they only tax you. Ebay will charge you straight away as soon as you load your item for sale, they charge you again for your item sold.

In future Many people will be selling on website or auction market becoz Singapore retail place are rocket high.
In March I give up my shop and selling online.

anybody got problem getting payment from Gmarket?

Stardust

yes! getting payment is a chore! for low power sellers, it takes them 14 days or so and after Thursday(?) to pay you your $$ THAT is provided the buyer updates the status to "delivered" on their end. If they after receiving your item but do not update on their end, its another 14 days (?) or so waiting period for Gmarket to acknowledge that the item has INDEED been received by buyer.
Taking into account the above circumstances, it seems that it will take Gmarket 28 days (?) to pay you the $$

Anyone disputing the above?? This is the current situation I am in, wonder if anyone elses facing the same problem.

I have been selling items on Gmarket since Aug and my total sales has chalked up to 400 plus. Till now...not a cent!

Emailing their customer service is also tedious! no reply for 1 week despite 2-3 emails...

But alas! like the person above mentioned, in SG retail rental is too high, what to do but to sell online...

These few months my sale in Gmarket was so bad and I do not know what is the reason,I used to get 30 to 50 orders average a month.

Stardust

just a thought...could you have offended any of the management? Maybe like what you said...they blocked your sales?

Just a thought..i am also experiencing low sales all of a sudden...and yes, I did &^@* the management thru email.

I try to sell my product in Gmarket. They tax me a lot and asked my company cert and IC again and again, I sent my file to them again and again, finanlly, I called them up, they only asked me to pay not thing more ................ Gmarket gave me very bad expressing.

Ebay is not convenience to upload photo and a lot things have to reset again, but better than blood-sucker GGGGGGGGmarket.

Pardon me for saying this I have been selling on gmarket for about a yr now, i think its pretty good, Yes you may find the initial payment abit slow....... but after the first payment, it becomes payment in every week so i guess its pretty ok ba, I do wanna branch out from gmarket, tried selling on my blogshop, gumtree, ebay, smh.............. response aint that great .
Since every now and then then i 'revamp' my site or i spent a lot of time just waiting for orders, i take the free time to answer my emails, As i usually start off selling on other platforms stating I am a veteran seller on gmarket hoping to gain more sales, so quite a few emails are about asking me how to sell via gmarket, so i feel why not share the knowledge ive gained throughout this 1 yr+ period? Its not gonna hurt, so why not.
But if any people here do have another good platform for me to sell online, I'll be utterly grateful

Hey guys.. I think i will be withdrawing from Gmarket as a seller.. I would like to say.. its not worth to put your items in Gmarket to sell.. Starting sales was not bad.. slowly sales getting bad. Maybe when i first join they will push me more sales that i would love gmarket. but i guess i was wrong.. and now. latest news.. they are adding GST! 7% for non reg company. So gmarket every time took my 10% fee from the items and shipping everything they still wana add on 7% .. i felt is totally not worth selling items in gmarket.. thats my own options. But if ya in a reg company i think it wont affects you ba. but still.. they suck up everything including the postage.. sighz
