RIPOFF stone cold and sober. Dump the flat rate box, find some envelopes and
go first class or what ever the actual costs are.

Seems to me flagging sales could be due to your overcharging for shipping.

Anyways to me it sounds like ebay hates you and they are out to get you.
Save your money and your life forces and do not sell on ebay. I hear Brick
and Mortar sales are a better deal that e-commerce. There is all that
overhead for a lease and utilities and taxes, but at least you can not get
beat down by a SEARCH ENGINE!

Try another venue...
