OT: EBAY Seller Unhappy W/ -feedback

This might be something that eBay would consider to be in violation of their feedback policy, specifically "Feedback Manipulation":

"... offering to sell, buy, or barter feedback is not permitted. ..."

Offering a refund in exchange for withdrawing negative feedback isn't quite exactly the same as offering to buy or barter feedback, but it seems pretty close to me. If I had received an offer like this one, I think I'd report it to eBay and see if they want to do anything about it.

Probably not unless I figured I could afford to just throw the money away. OTOH, though, the positives are far more numerous than the negatives. Somebody must be happy with them...

True, except...WHY ON EARTH would you buy from somebody with feedback like that? If all his buyers are bitching about slow shipping, why did you think your case would be any different???

You ALWAYS check feedback before bidding, and I make it a rule never to bid on anything from someone with records like this, expecially on commonly available stuff. If you were looking for the last 50 foot,

72-pin parallel interface cable for Univac disc drives on earth, then sure, if he had it maybe you'd be willing to wait. But for common stuff, nah!

Bullshit! If the order dropped into a crack, why didn't it crawl out when he emailed more than once? For that matter, why have so many others had the same experience? These people need a wakeup call.

Responsible people don't treat other people that way. Word needs to get out----sellers like this should wear the reputation they earn.
