Andrei,

I guess you are looking for "Power seller" and feedback feature what eBay provides on their site. Where a buyer and customer both rate each other and provide feedback for the same. As per my limited knowledge I did not come across many service providers having this feature. But yah a 3rd party providing this service sounds like a good idea.

Cheers :)

Hi,

I'm thinking of some b2b scenarios. I'm a company that needs to buy
sprockets because I'm building bikes. Say I manage to find in some
cross-organization registry the service interfaces of 10 sprocket
sellers and somehow I know how to use all of them. Now I have to
choose one and order 500 sprockets. How do I address the issue of
trust? Which one of the 10 sellers is most trust-worthy? I don't mean
QoS or security, I mean which one is least likely to send me defective
sprockets, which one is least likely to be late with my order, which
one is least likely to be a phantom site ripping me off?

I know about the ways you can express "trust information" in a WS
service interface. But the key issue is that this information has to
be true, so it has to somehow be managed by a third (trusted) party
(some government agency?). Or the track record of delivering orders of
that seller is available somewhere, again under the control of some
trusted third party.

What are the ways to deal with this?

Thanks,
Andrei
