Remember that auction where the seller was auctioning a photograph and claimed it was research?

I just sent the person a note about what he did and how I felt about it. If you follow the guide back it will take you to the person's ebay information. I think we all should let him know what we thought about his so called failed study. The information that he obtained with using the phonograph is really flawed and he should be told about that.

Message-ID: <[email protected]> I just received this email from a seller. He is holding my feed back as hostage until I leave him good feed back. His ebay ID is?? firebirdologist This was his message to me: Hi! It's on the way today! Thank you again for your purchase. I will happily post positive feedback for this transaction if I receive the same. All the best, Randy This will be my reply: Randy, Many people that I speak with are starting to feel as if feed back from the seller is being withheld as a hostage. Because of this I am joining a growing group that only leaves feed back for sellers that first leaves it for the buyer. My part is over, if you fail to leave me feedback then so be it. You may also thank your fellow sellers that practice the same method that you are trying on me now. Thank you Bill Please stand with me on this issue, when you get a seller that fails to send feed back for you. Please send him a similar message and do what you would like with his feed back. Thank you?

Message-ID: <20090123150846.5yv5u.338913.im...@eastrmwml09> I've got a high feedback rating -- over 1400 somewhere -- but I have never once asked anyone to leave me feedback. If I had some for every transaction it would be quite a bit higher. I refuse to ask for it and I instinctively resent being asked for it. Nevertheless I understand the need that some people have to receive it. I once sold a rare 12" 78 jazz record set to a fellow in Japan. He wrote me back that it was in stupendous condition, much better than he expected, and that my packing job was the best he had ever seen. It would have been nice to see that in my feedback, because I didn't have any from record buyers and having had some like that might have boosted the confidence of collectors to bid on my item. So I sympathize with sellers who would like some public recognition for doing their part well. For a time I didn't bother leaving any feedback. These days I always get around to leaving it just as a matter of cleaning up the reminder on my eBay page. I don't always get it in return. C'est la vie.
