Worst ebay member ever

In light of my bad experience I though I would share result of a search for the worst eBay member on record, their feedback can be viewed here:

http://feedback.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewFeedback&userid=rockfordfosgate118

Absolutley shocking! and I thought my seller was bad!

EBay seems like a bizarre setup to me. All you have to do is pay for something (just like you do everyday in a petrol station or newsagents) and people are falling over themselves to heap superlatives onto to you with huge excess. How many times have you seen "Excellent Ebayer A+++++++++++" etc. Since when did a single transaction qualify someone to pronounce another person very trustworthy or a prompt payer? Perhaps there are people on there who give accurate feedback - I've just not seen any that I feel I can trust.


Still, with reference to the previous link, it's good to see that Mr. T. is using EBay "Negative feedback rating Never Heard Anything from this FOOL" Ah, short-term Saturday afternoon TV nostalgia.

Cheers,

Neil.





Your sort make me sick

yeah right. Half the positives seem to have a negative comment - perhaps the sellers cant tick the right box when they post feedback

It might not be that they can't tick the right box, it may be more out of fear of themselves being left with negative feedback in retaliation.

It's probably already been done somewhere, but there should be a database set up indepentantly where people can leave comments, maybe anonymously, about ebay users they have dealt with where they can be more honest, wait until you have your feedback then say what you want without such risk of reprisal.

One thing that really puzzles me is this, if someone has a bad feedback record, why
the fook do people keep dealing with them ??????
Do they like an almost certain chance of being be ripped off ??????
No wonder there are so many stories of people making huge profits by dodgy dealing
when there are be so many knobs who are easy prey.

If you noticed all of his feedback were from sellers, not buyers. Sellers have no control over who bids on their items. You can however block bidders with 0 or -ve feedback.

Hi Folks
Looks like my problem is minor by comparison but I must echo David's coment because most of the negs of theis fellows feed back are for failing to complete a purchase . As a rule I always praise the transaction for its speed and efficency as I have no idea what sort of person I am dealling with but if you look at some ones feed back and it is 100% it does mean something particularly if they have made alarge number of transactions . I also find looking at what they have been buying or selling gives some insight into what they are about.
Best wishes
Iain
