Imagine if you luck out and sell to an asshole on your second or third transaction. All of a sudden you have 30 or 50 percent negative feedback.
And what do you do with the seller who is slow to ship, so you mention that in the feedback and the moron responds with a negative feedback of his own, even if you paid promptly (as has happenned to me)? William Robb ========= I look at the total number of feedbacks vs the number of negative feedbacks. Then, if worried, I'll read what the negatives are. I bought from one place once that had a bit higher number of negatives than I like. But I read the feedbacks, and it seemed the products were fine/good, just that sometimes they did not respond that quickly with emails or to emails. So it took about 4-6 days before they responded that they were sending it, but the camera and lens were fine when I got them. I just assumed they were slightly uncoordinated in checking their emails. (It was actually a store that sold used camera equipment and they probably had a doofus handling the computer in the back room.) There are negatives and there are negatives. Not all negatives are equal. Marnie aka Doe
