Marty and Sean, Thanks for sending the correct math -- you both obviously know more about how this works then I do -- so perhaps you can accurately answer John Reid's question (which is what I was trying to do):
This ebay seller "tloceposters" has 6302 positive feedback, 7 neutral and 3 negative -- so how come eBay shows this seller with a 100% rating?
