yourhighness Posted July 16, 2014 Share Posted July 16, 2014 Reply to @frank_d: I know right? They just keep taking little by little from sellers. There will be no incentive to sellers after a while to continue working for the site. It’s not right. We’re already only making $4! I mean come on Fiverr.

imperatormk Posted July 16, 2014 Share Posted July 16, 2014 Seems that the decimal point is not connected to higher share per Gig. I just had a purchase and still have 4$/gig. Or if it is, it hasn’t been introduced yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

youtubefun Posted July 16, 2014 Share Posted July 16, 2014 Looks like fiverr maybe taking 1.25 or 1.50 now from every 5 bucks,Happens when you start losing sellers do to bad ideas from this site. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

theslackjaw Posted July 16, 2014 Share Posted July 16, 2014 If what the TRS’s are saying is true, I’m excited for the change. Yeah, I’m not a fan of the new rating system, and Fiverr doesn’t have the best track record in keeping sellers happy but I have faith.And I know it’s not 3 things, but one BIG thing Fiverr did for us recently is take mutual cancellations off the “negative rating” side of the coin. That’s HUGE. Let’s not forget that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brunettegrenade Posted July 16, 2014 Share Posted July 16, 2014 Is it to incorporate your own shipping cost for gigs that require shipping? I have no idea if the shipping cost was a fixed amount or choose your own before, since I haven’t used that feature yet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
surfdude001 Posted July 16, 2014 Share Posted July 16, 2014 I’ve had several orders made today and already rated and I’m continuing to get $4 out of every $5 so I don’t think this is connected to a higher commission rate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrproofreading Posted July 16, 2014 Share Posted July 16, 2014 Reply to @bachas85: It might be that, however shipping has been around for a long while and this has never been updated.I believe the likely cause is the full roll-out of the custom quote feature which has been in beta for a while.

spark4hope Posted July 16, 2014 Share Posted July 16, 2014 I’d like to see an official response from a Fiverr employee here. 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
s_sayan Posted July 16, 2014 Share Posted July 16, 2014 There has been such a negative vibe in the forums lately. Gosh! Be positive guys. Why do you always have to think about the negative things first? Maybe what Bachas or mrproofreading said is the right answer. I agree with them. I also thought it could be that we will have the option to withdraw the funds in a custom way. Let’s say I have $100 and want to withdraw $45.7. That would be great!I know Fiverr needs to cominicate more with us sellers, but come on, be positive guys. I can be negative too, but it’s too early for that. The thing appeared just today for most sellers and people is already making all kinds of bad assumptions.No offense to anyone, but please be more optimist even if you are still mad about ARS.

brunettegrenade Posted July 16, 2014 Share Posted July 16, 2014 Well, I looked at shipping options and this is what the options are. It makes sense that Fiverr would add a decimal point to the total for this purpose since it’s possible to have a total with dollars and cents.80$1.60$2.40$3.20$4.00$4.80$5.60$6.40$7.20$8.00 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jtengle Posted July 16, 2014 Share Posted July 16, 2014 This bugs me, but just because there should be 2 decimal points. It looks silly with just one (at least from an American perspective). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
surfdude001 Posted July 16, 2014 Share Posted July 16, 2014 While trying to optimistic on this very small cosmetic change, I do agree. It looks rather silly with just one zero, rather than two. After all, this company is based out of New York City, USA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steveeyes Posted July 16, 2014 Share Posted July 16, 2014 Fiverr is not in the USA. At least that is what my tax man says. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest celticmoon Posted July 16, 2014 Share Posted July 16, 2014 So, if I understand correctly, TRSs have been able to charge something other than $5.00 per gig during this beta testing?But why would my revenue amount (or any non-TRS seller’s) change by the odd amount when I’m not yet able to change my prices? That’s what I’m unclear about.And I now realize my revenue amount became wonky a week ago, on the 9th. I didn’t notice because one of my gigs used to have a shipping fee that left me with that odd amount, but I deleted that gig over a month ago, and all my other gigs have shipping which leaves an even dollar amount. I think I didn’t notice the change last week because, well, it didn’t seem unusual to me. (Fiverr has never added a “0” to the cents place, at least in my time here).Fiverr is an Israeli company with offices in the U.S. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
