Any automated notifications sent to buyer after the purchase has been marked as shipped?

Hello.

Doesn’t Bonanza send out an automated notification to a buyer once a package has been marked as shipped along with the tracking number to the package? I do always contact a buyer once they have made a purchase letting them know when their package will ship, etc.

I received an email from Bonanza as below in quotes. I know that sometimes buyers want a real-time update. Just wondering if Bonanza sends out the automated notification as I have always thought they do and have even told buyers in my emails to them that they will receive notification.

Also, I do not really like the automated email sent to me from Bonanza when a buyer has a question. It tells me absolutely nothing and then I am left communicating with a buyer completely blinded. I think this should be changed.

“This is an automated message from Bonanza on behalf of xxxx.

xxxx has requested that you contact them regarding Order #[phone number removed] at your earliest convenience.

If you want to reply to the buyer, you may use the form below."

Quite honestly, I fear that many of the canned responses from Bonanza are way far off the mark. It’s like they don’t even read the question that was posed to them. They see one word they recognize and go into search mode and respond with the first thing that pops up even if it is not helpful.

Yes they send the message…sometimes when a buyer purchases they will automatically send a request for tracking immediately after purchase to bonanza..and that is when you get that particular message from Bonz

I usually just answer them with..“Once the package has been mailed you will receive a message from both bonanza and I with the tracking information”

Okay. Thank you, Cindy. I am glad to hear that me telling customers they would receive notification was correct then. Buyer knew when I was shipping because I always email when the purchase is made….maybe too she did not know where to find the info on her purchase here on Bonanza. I gave…

details on where to check her purchase for the tracking number. I’m sure emailing through Bonanza seemed harmless to her, which it is….it’s just that I wish Bonanza set it up so that I knew what the buyer’s question was. Maybe Bonanza could give the buyer a multiple choice question and the buyer..

EmpressDepot says: May 12, 2019

could select a broad choice…such as if Bonanza had a multiple choice with one choice to choose from being shipping…or tracking, etc.

As far as I know Bonanza sends them a message. I just received a sale and i received notification from Bonanza about the sale, but it has always been like that. I also will send a message to the buyer saying that they will receive a message with tracking from bonanza and paypal when the item is shipped.

Okay. So you do it the same as me…but I forgot to mention about Paypal sending a notification. Will also add that in when emailing a buyer right after the purchase.

Usually, when a marketplace wants to keep conversations via their internal msgs system, they send an e-mail to a seller with info that she/he has received a message from a buyer (without adding the original text), so a seller has to open it and answer on a marketplace msgs page.

In case of some other marketplaces, which don’t have an internal msgs channel, they send a buyer’s message straight to a seller’s e-mail address.

Has something changed here? Doesn’t this message appear in Your B. inbox anymore?

Before, if we first noticed B. e-mail, we could open a message in our B. account, read it and then answer a buyer.

As far as Your title question is concerned, on help pages they have only info with this sample, how to inform Your buyer about shipping an [URL removed] https://www.bonanza.com/site_help/general/email

Artist, something must have changed then because the only email that Bonanza sent to me was the message that you quoted. Thanks for the link.

Your post is amazing. Keep writing next posts. drift hunters

I have received messages ONLY in my email and not in my B-mail here.
Things here are never as smooth lately as they should be.
At Least Bonz does NOT HIDE the buyers email so I can send them a direct email with the conf# and always Thank them for their Purchase.
