eBay sellers can no longer leave negative feedback for buyers!

I'm not sure I follow. If I look at your profile Dirge, your feedback score is 161, but it says you've received 199 feedbacks.

An easier system would have been for the feedback to only become visible once both buyer and seller had left their feedback.

At present, there's a number of sellers who don't leave feedback until the buyer has because of the whole "if they leave me negative feedback i'll do the same to them!" attitude.

Take away their ability to see the feedback until they do their job, problem solved. All this does is mask the dodgy buyers.

My soundwave is real alright- 1980's real, lol has the wear to prove it. Lucky i didnt pay much for it. Thanks for the warning though. The last thing we need is people filling up the system with KO's.

As you may be aware, a number of changes were scheduled to come into effect on eBay.com.au on 17 June 2008.
Most of these changes have been delayed by almost one month and are now scheduled to commence on 15 July 2008 ...... The decision to delay these changes was made by eBay following the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission's (ACCC) draft notice issued on Thursday 12 June 2008.
eBay released a media statement on Friday 13 June regarding the ACCC's draft notice.

we still have a foot in the door

Yeah I had to laugh at that.

E-Bay's just another victim of that mean overbearing ACCC. They never let businesses have a good go!

Suck it E-Bay.

I wonder how many users really let their heartstrings be tugged by this.

This email was funnier than the one I received last week about how to take care of babies. Which was priceless!

Hmm... I should send that to Soundwarp!

The irony of this change is that as I was about to leave my first -ve feedback, I stopped myself. I went back and e-mailed the seller giving courtesy notice of my decision and why I'm doing so. Am I just being too nice? He's trying to talk me out of it now saying that the item was in near perfect condition.

The fact was that even if it was when it got to me packaged in an A3 letter inside an Express satchet, it had scuffs and dents all over it. And considering what I bought was a BT-08 Zoom Zoom, I think my anger's warranted. The toy isn't exactly the random toy that was available at retail. You had to be a collector of some sort to get it and you'd know its worth (which he did given the price he was offering it at)
