eBay sellers can no longer leave negative feedback for buyers!

[jaydisc]

Was given a dialog box at eBay today when I went to leave negative feedback for toys_magician:

Important changes to Feedback
Buyers, you can no longer receive negative or neutral Feedback from sellers.

You should leave honest and accurate Feedback without the fear of receiving negative or neutral ratings.

There is karma!

But how are people like wheeljackslab supposed to criticise buyers now?

Ah, It's all good

[Rampage]

sweet

been waiting 2 1/2 months for a reissue Skywarp from a guy in Canada

the idiot sent it sea mail if it ever gets here it'll more than likely be smashed to bits anyhow

looks like somebodys getting a negative

It's pretty cool too as when you choose a really low star rating, it gives you a four or five multiple choice explanation for it, e.g. if you give one star for shipping costs, it offers:

* Was shipping more than what was listed
* Was shipping more than it would have cost
* Something else
* Something else

I'm impressed! eBay's finally done SOMETHING right!

Unfortunately I'm sure there will be some buyers who abuse the system and when that starts happening ebay will be looking to make some more changes.

[Borgeman]

that low star thing has been there for a while...


one thing though, what happens if a buyer is legitimately in the right?

[Gutsman Heavy]

beware dodgy sellers!

but what about dodgy buyers?

I bought an old soundwave off toys_magician and had no real issues. Can i ask what he did? I must mention he sent me a sheet of everything he had for sale and the prices were VERY high.

[jaydisc]

He described an item as a Takara release and showed pics of the Takara package and mentioned "the elusive allspark is included". When I got the item, it was the local release and I asked him to either accept a return or send the described item. He wouldn't budge. He said he wrote "Hasbro" in the description which should have made everything clear. I disputed and I lost.

EDIT: He also sells KOs advertised as legit. Much of his negative feedback is to that effect.

EDIT 2: You sure your Soundwave is real?
