[QUOTE=Maastricht] 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. [/QUOTE] As a matter of fact, I have been known to buy foods on ebay. Wheat germ and that sort of thing, which is ridiculously expensive or hard to find here. I’ve bought a ton of clothes for my kids and myself on ebay. Since I’m in the process of losing the equivalent of a ten-year-old kid, I don’t want to buy new clothes (although sometimes I get new with tags things on ebay for great deals) and then only be able to wear them for a month or so. ---

Last week I was helping a freind out handling one of her accounts while she was away. That one has a rating of 14080 with a possitive feedback of 99.1% Whenever I do anything E-bay related I tend to use that account. ---

[/QUOTE] Ebay’s been going for quite a few years now, so those who started early can easily have a hundred odd feedback without buying or selling at all often. ---

Are Dopers just naturally honest and efficient? 274 feedback and 100% positive here. I buy and sell, and guarantee instant refund if the item isn’t exactly as described. I also pay immediately and charge zero for “handling fees”. ---

If you want to sell anything on eBay you need to build up a feedback history so your potential buyers will know you are a good guy. 🙂 ---

Feedback Score: 145 Positive Feedback: 99.3% Members who left a positive: 146 Members who left a negative: 1 All positive feedback received: 159 My negative was based on the fact that even though I paid for and ultimately kept the item, I challenged the seller that she didn’t describe accurately. She insisted she did, even though she was way off and I let it drop. She gave me bad feedback anyway. She had several negative and is no longer registered. I am currently waiting for 11 feedback on items I recently shipped. I expect them to all be positive. ---

Unique Feedback: 598 Total Feedback: 807 100% I’d say about 90% of them are for selling. As a seller I always left feedback upon payment, and as a buyer I always left feedback when I received it.
