Seriously--------Why do you expect a FOR PROFIT company to give you
anything free? Ebay has made it very very clear through the years that
they will maximize their profit in any way possible. They are constantly
looking for ways to make more money and this is very evident in every aspect of
their existence. I would be shocked if they gave anything away after 10
years of watching them.
Ebay is still the most dominant auction house on the internet and
by now everyone knows the game plan and frankly, whether you like it or not,
those are the rules and you do have a choice. (Your choice is to play by the
rules or leave ebay)
I think their feedback system is worthless when a seller reaches
over 1000 feedbacks. At this point the seller can cheat you by simply not
replying to any complaint you make and accept your negative. I believe a
very simple solution would be for ebay to reset all feedbacks to "zero" every
calendar year. This way a seller would have to earn your confidence
again. If zero is too harsh, they could reset them by allowing the last 25
so that you do not look like a newbie. This would prevent sellers from
ignoring you. I recently bought a poster from a seller and it was not as
described. He just ignored me and there is nothing I can do as I prefer
not to get a retaliatory negative for a $40 item. He had over 2000
feedbacks. Unfortunately ebay caters to big sellers and cares little about
small buyers.
