eBay is sticking it to their members again!

ALL SELLERS SHOULD MAKE A COMPLAIN ABOUT THIS FEEDBACK POLICY!!

EBAY is allowing BUYERS to POST a NEGATIVE FEEDBACK
EVEN
When an item hasn't been paid or the transaction was cancelled.
Plus the fact that a SELLER
IS NO LONGER ALLOWED TO POST ANYTHING EXCEPT POSITIVE FEEDBACKS
In FEAR of losing BUYERS -- Please what a lame excuse!

  • I GUESS THE SELLERS ARE NO LONGER IMPORTANT

  • I GUESS SELLERS TRYING TO MAINTAIN 100% FEEDBACK DOESN'T MATTER

  • I GUESS AS LONG AS EBAY COLLECTS THEIR COMMISSIONS ON ALL SALES

  • WHO IS GOING TO COMPLAIN?

  • I BELIEVE IT IS TIME FOR A NEW AUCTION WEBSITE TO BE CREATED

  • I BELIEVE IF EBAY DOESN'T START GETTING BEHIND THE SELLERS

  • MORE WILL START LOOKING FOR OTHER FORMATS

  • IF YOU AGREE WITH THIS SIMPLE STATMENT

PLEASE VOTE IT
USEFUL SO I CAN MAKE MY POINT EBAY

THANK YOU FOR ALLOWING ME TO VENT and READING

A couple of responses below from other members that I thought was worth posting

Dear my-retro-store,

  • Hi, I absolutely agree with you. As both a buyer and a seller I know how important my feedback is. I am appalled that eBay can be so neglecting of its members. The policy of no negative feedback left for buyers is an absolute disgrace. I can definitely see myself quitting ebay all together. But tell me, do you know any other way for our voice to be heard? Also, remember the changes in policy, they are trying to scam us by saying they are helping us by lowering starting value fees but increasing heavily on final value fees. Please let me know if you know anything we can do. Sincerely, Pakco1
  • I guess for now all we can do is whine and maybe start a forum at eBay to discuss it, but only to have it removed by eBay when they don't like what they're reading... So I guess an offsite forum would be the next best option.. I have watch them go from 1.25% to the current rate since 1998 on thier FVF. They have become a public held company that only worries about the bottom line. But a NO NEGATIVE FEEDBACK left for BUYERS is B.S.

Here's my FINAL THOUGHTS on feedbacks

You can please some of the people all the time
You can please all the people some of the time

BUT YOU WILL NEVER PLEASE ALL THE PEOPLE ALL THE TIME!

Please remember to VOTE UESFUL and take care of each other and Thank You!
