Responded NEXT DAY and LOST STAR SELLER

[BlingBoxBabe]

This is truly ridiculous!  I have had star seller the whole time and ALWAYS RESPOND immediately!  I literally responded to this 1 MESSAGE the NEXT DAY and it knocked me under 95%!  I have a screenshot of the message stamps to prove it!

Were you within 24 hours?

[BlingBoxBabe]

It only shows the day on my side, not the time stamp.

You have no badges at all which means you did not meet the $300 minimum in sales.

[BlingBoxBabe]

I’ve more than met that amount and I’ve earned that badge SEVERAL times, until now, so I’m not sure what you’re seeing.

@BlingBoxBabe

You have no badges at all. No reviews badge or shipping badge either, so that either means you have not made a minimum of $300 over the 3 month review period (which you need before any badges are awarded), or that Etsy have removed your badges for some reason.

Also not seeing any badges

@BlingBoxBabe   The star seller program is so flawed and glitchy that you really should try not to get so upset over it.  Good products and good reviews bring the customers.  Most don't even notice the little kindergarten stars.

If the message came in at 10.00am on a Monday, and you replied at 11.00am on a Tuesday, you are dinged, as that is more than 24 hours

@CraftyCornishMaids   Etsy's "customer service" takes a lot longer than that!

[BlingBoxBabe]

Yeah, I guess that’s it, but that really stinks!  I feel like it should be done by the date, not the hour, since we can’t see the time stamp, we can only see the day.

@BlingBoxBabe 

You can see the number of hours, up to 24 hours

once it is over 24 hours, then it says

1 day ago, if it says that, you've blown the 24 hours

then it gives 2 days, 3 days etc

up to a week

then it gives the date, like 3rd Nov
