Hole in barcode on Ebay items?

July 11th, 2011 at 03:48am Under Forum

Hole in barcode on Ebay items?
Why would an item on ebay say in the description that the item may have a small hole or slash in the barcode. Would that be purposely put there. It doesn’t seem like randomly there would be a hole in a barcode or a slash through it. Why is this?

Best answer:

A small hole in a barcode wouldn’t keep a barcode reader from reading it, but it could flag to a Customer Service clerk that the item is not returnable. Exactly why the seller is warning buyers is an even murkier question.

Sorry.

Does punching a hole through a DVD’s barcode diminish the value, even if the DVD is sealed?

Best answer:

No it does not, even if you intend to sell it on an auction site, or return it to the store you purchased it from.
It does however, if you puncture the actual plastic casing of the DVD.

why is barcode black in colour?

why is barcode black in colour?
Any links?
Any info i can get in SINGAPORE?

Best answer:

I don’t think there is an actual reason for bar codes being black. I think it’s just easier and cheaper to print them in black. I’ve seen them in all different colors. Black is probably just the easiest to see and decipher.

Is there a website that I can type a barcode into and it will tell me what the product is and how much it was?

Is there a website that I can type a barcode into and it will tell me what the product is and how much it was?

Best answer:

No…you may be able to Google some UPC labels, but the actual product/price/etc. are programmed locally at each store. You may have one product that 5 different stores are selling, but are all different prices. Factor in special promotions or sales and you can see why they would all be different and the need to program the UPCs locally.
