Brek,
*sigh*... condolences and welcome to the club. I remember how betrayed and
hurt I felt the day I got my first (and only) negative... from a guy who had
actually bought from me before and left positive feedback. But then he
won a $200 pulp in a hot bidding war and apparently he had got carried away
and didn't really have the money to pay for it... but instead of fessing up to
me and letting me cancel the sale and offer it to someone else, he kept jerking
me around for almost 8 weeks... telling me "he forgot to mail the
payment..." then "the check is in the mail..." etc., etc., until I finally
gave up and relisted the item and sold it to someone else. When he saw me do
that, he left me a blistering negative... claiming that I had taken his money
and never sent him the item, if you can believe it!
Oh, yes...I guess I should also offer my apologies for
disturbing the delicate sensibilities of any reader who may have
been shocked and appalled just now at my use of the "J" word above.

Subject: Re: [MOPO] my first bad feedback If a new ebayer has
less than 10 feedback you are supposed to be able to get it removed if you
request (if ebay implemented what they said they would at ebay live). If that id
becomes restricted or unregistered then the negative will be automatically
removed because their feedback is less than 10. Contact ebay and you should get
an answer in a couple of weeks. It is worth the fight to keep a clean record. Be
sure to write the follow-up to the negative even if just “as described, flat
stated shipping, no contact”. Cheers, Brek From: MoPo List
[mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On
Behalf Of Michael B most of you have been
there.............. my first neg
feedback. i was the seller. buyer had joined ebay 2 days
earlier, hence, ZERO feedback. i truly suspect this was retaliation
by someone........... why would anyone join ebay just to buy a cheap
insert of STOP YOU'RE KILLING ME that I described in lesser
condition? this ebayer hasn't bid on anything else, and
will likely become UNREGISTERED. yet, i will have those red dots
forever. he now has a NEGATIVE ONE (-1) FEEDBACK.
he praised me 2/3 weeks ago, yet left bad today.
he complained at feedback time for the first time that my 7.75 postage was too
much. the shipping was stated in the description boldly. what he
didnt say was: he didnt respond to initial emails, paid late, and I mailed
the poster in advance as a gamble. (it saved me a trip to the post office
for his single, cheap item, since all other winners had paid using paypal
immed.) normally, i wouldve sent it Priority, but since I had not
yet been paid, i mailed it First Class. In fact, I think the poster
arrived a day before the check actually arrived to
me. the recognized stupidity of the ebay feedback
system. my ebay account:
