I think the title says it all. Mine is 100%, 93 transactions.

100%, 152 transactions (some are multiple or repeat sales - 136 actualy counted.)

Why so high? When I buy, I pay fast. When I sell, I describe accurately and honestly, pack carefully and ship well. Not exactly rocket science. 😃

255 and 99.6% – I’ve bought a lot, usually pay vbery quickly using PayPal, and once had a misunderstanding.

100%, 192 transactions over the past five years. I buy a lot of import CDs, and it’s far cheaper to find someone overseas thinning out the collection and paying even overseas list than special-ordering through a shop.

Feedback score: 34|Positive feedback: 100%

I had 90 or so transactions with 100% feedback before I lost custody of that account in the divorce.

What **gotpasswords** said. I recently screwed up the shipping on one (my fault, didn’t pay enough attention). I gave the guy a discount; he’s happy.

Mine is 100% positive, 167 transactions. Those are all as a buyer, though. Haven’t tried my hand at selling yet.

[/QUOTE]  
I meant to say you do a lot of selling and buying on e-bay. Do you have a store or something? Apart from books, clothes or collectibles, I have a hard time thinking what 93 things I could want to buy or sell on E-bay. It’s not like they sell groceries, or something else one needs every day.
