The worst case of Feedback Received VS FB Given!

[Rickdogg]

Look at this guy's ratio!

 

FEEDBACK RECEIVED! 1000+

 

FEEDBACK GIVEN! 84

 

Can someone explain to me why people don't leave feedback like this???

[fantastic_four]

Huh?

[Rickdogg]

Click on each URL...Look at the amount of feedback he returns. PRACTICALLY ZERO! Of course Darth got a positive

 

1000+ vs. 84

[greggy]

Are you complaining that he does not leave that many positive feedback? Mmmm, I didn't know that you could check on the feedback that another user has given!

[greggy]

Darth was probably holding the guy's feedback as hostage!

[Rickdogg]

It shows what kind of seller they are. Ask bonds25, he thinks the same way I do. If a dealer doesn't think a customer's feedback is important, then he doesn't deserve my business.

 

 

[fantastic_four]

How'd you come up with the 84? Clicked on every single person who left it for him, went into THEIR feedback, and tallied it up? Sounds like an all-day pursuit!

[greggy]

Oh, now you and Matt are buds? I always give feedback when I receive payment!

[Rickdogg]

You're not too bright are you james? Look again. Greggy got it without too much effort.

[fantastic_four]

When did they add that link to see feedback a person has left? Last time I looked in that little area, that option wasn't there.

[Rickdogg]

LMAO, you must have looked before I added that hahahahahah. Sorry for confusing ya buddy

[fantastic_four]

Holy ...I always mention which comic I bought in my feedback. I just browsed through my own feedback, and it's effectively a list of 90% of the comics I've ever bought on ebay. Not sure if that's a good thing or not.

[Rickdogg]

How freakin' funny I've never seen that before hahaha

[Bonds25]

Hey Rickdogg, can you find out how many feedbacks this seller has left for his buyers? I'd be interested.

 

Also, where on Ebay can you find the amount of feedbacks a user has left?

[Rickdogg]

HERE!

 

http://cgi2.ebay.com/aw-cgi/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewFeedbackMemberLeft&memberId=trjahnk@aol.com&items=25

 

All you have to do is view their feedback and click on "feedback left for others" It's underneath their feedback "in the last last 6 months"

[Bonds25]

Pretty interesting. His first feedback he ever left was on October 6, 2001, and except for a couple of negatives he left, his next feedback he left was on September 9, 2002. I guess he finally decided to leave feedback for his buyers. Too bad it took him a year to figure it out!

[Rickdogg]

I always look at their feedback about others to see what kind of ebayer they are. If they are the type that never leaves feedback, i'm gone.

Here's the Feedback page with all the links (Scroll down to the bottom)

 

Ebay has had this feature for years. Comes in handy sometimes when you're curious about a seller.

[read_em-migration]

Hmmm... I was looking at the FB given by fantastic-four (since he mentioned it earlier in this thread) and I saw something curious. I could see the feedbacks he's given to people who have private feedback! (Maybe because he gave the FB before the person made their FB private?)

 

In fact, I found this one!

Praise: A decent comic from a great seller!

 

That's one for Meth!

[fantastic_four]

Yea, I mentioned in another thread I had bought an X-Men 7 for $275 in about VF/VF+ shape from Meth. That was in December 2000. His feedback didn't become private until sometime in mid-2001.

 

About six months after I bought the comic and left the feedback, a well-known national dealer gave me a really stern warning about comic-keys; this was in May 2001. I continued to ask other dealers and collectors for over a year after that. It wasn't until after I had researched comic-keys for over a year that I went public in these forums with a part--only the circumstantial part--of what I had found; I started talking about it in July 2002 in the thread "Ebay related stuff".

 

You can really see the weakness in EBay's feedback system based upon the scenario I just described above. By the time I got any indication that there could be a problem with the comic I bought, it was too late to do anything through E-Bay about it. And were I not a really chatty person via e-mail and in these forums, I'd still have no clue.
