Greetings and Salutations,
I told that you can help get back on eBay.
I am wrongly accused of being crack head in my feedback. I not have crack head nor dada usage.
I have many false feedbacks and want back on ebay. eBay not nice to Indonesians and wrongly suspend me.
I have always been honest and worthily of supreme trust.
I am patel26 on ebay, and want to get back on.
Please Excuse my poor English.

15 positives. 15 are from unique users and count toward the final rating.
5 neutrals. 0 are from users no longer registered.
59 negatives. 59 are from unique users and count toward the final rating
This all adds up to a nice -44 feedback.
Oh, edited to add, the last feedback for this fine seller was September 1999.

Meya,
In all fairness, he does have 15 positives.
Also, look at the accusations in this poor fellow's feedback.
How do they know he is a crackhead?

Totally uncalled for I know. What were these buyers thinking? "Crack Smokin Weed Monkey", now what an awful thing to say about a monkey. Do Monkey's even smoke weed? Do Crack Smokin Monkey's smoke weed? Can a Crack Head be a Weed Monkey?
34 Negatives in one day! Look how busy his feedback file was on September 21 1999. Wow.

Questions:
Cannot he get feedbacks removed when they make false accusations like this?
Also, why would so many people say the same thing? Could these be retaliatory negatives?

He only left 10 feedbacks, and they were all positive.
Opps, forgot to wink

patel126, I've never seen such a disgraceful feedback record. The amazing thing is that you were allowed to sell on eBay for as long as you did. I can't believe people continued to buy from you.
You won't get any help here because you're exactly the type of seller that harms our business. GOOD RIDDENCE!!

This guy should get "back on e-bay" as an e-bay staff member. He has definitely shown a talent for deception. Sounds like he could be the perfect corporate spokeman to explain e-bays "unscheduled" outages to the news media.
I know some will think to get out the "pity hankey with group-hug" for this SLUG; but it is wise to note that this guy is a major example of what's wrong with e-bay. People such as him, with rip-off selling practices, drive buyers away like they were running from a plague.

I ran the ID "patel26" and it came up invalid. What gives? I'd like to see this -44.

I agree with you on this one.
I looked at this guys feedback too,though I agree its terrible.He maybe telling the truth.
If you look closely at this feedback all 44 where left with approx 24 hrs
27 all left on the same day and within a few hours even a few mins of each other.
The othes on the following day all most wihtin the same time frame.
Some are worded almost exactly the same.They appear to be regarding just 2 auctions which suggest a Dutch auction.
At this time if I recall you could leave feedback without actually having bid on an item.
I would guess that this guy was feedback bombed by one buyer who did not like his terms and had other people do this for him as well.
His positives are a mix of buying and selling.
So I think maybe being honest with us only thing is this was a year ago so I think its too late to do anything.

Adrian,
I thought you quit!
Anyway, I agree, this looks to me like a clear case of feedback bombing.
I feel sorry for this guy.
Can he get these nasty negatives removed and restore his good name?

It's been over a year since the last feedback. Why wait until now to appeal to the eBay gods? Nah, this is just a garden variety crack head weed monkey troll.

Many of these feedbacks were obviously written by the same person. Before feedback was changed to make it purely transaction related, one person (or a few confederates) could totally trash a person's feedback record.

These feedbacks do have transaction numbers, and there are obviously from a few dutch auctions. There are many different buyers however with varying numbers of their own feedbacks. It sounds like this seller ticked off a whole bunch of people.

I would guess that this guy was feedback bombed by one buyer who did not like his terms and had other people do this for him as well.
Then this buyer must have a lot of eBay friends with pretty good feedback. There were 6 comments from users with feedback over 100 (cumulative total over 800) and 31 total comments from users with feedback over 20. There is also 1 positive that is really a negative.
Many of these feedbacks were obviously written by the same person.
Then this person had quite a few eBay ids, and was awfully active with them. I checked the feedback of a number of those buyers, and none of the ones I looked at had any negatives in their record.

Tell me what's the chance of 44 people ticked off with a seller leave that many negatives against a seller.
As I said some of these are only a few minutes appart.There is very little chance that many ticked off bidders would leave that much feedback at the same time.
Over a period of dayd and weeks maybe but not within 24 hrs.
I think someone was upset and got his buddy's
on one of the chat boards to help him with this.
Reminds me of the feedback padding done in the book board on ebaY last year I think.

And a number of them are NARU.
It's not hard to feedback bomb...even now with transaction only feedback. One person is angry, contacts the other bidders in a dutch auction (these look like Dutch auctions)and convinces them to leave negs also. Once the negs start mounting up off goes a note to safe harbor and the seller is NARUed.
Or...one angry person on some chat board with lots of other ebay users reports this "horrible seller" who "gouges" on shipping, stirs others into a frenzy about how this person deserves to be driven off ebay and many bid on the auction just so they can give him a neg.
Ebay vigilante justice in action is how it looks to me.

This is rare example of how the "feedback system" of references is supposed to Work! I think it was great that all those people screwed by this guy responded so fast to keep other people from being burnt.
Look at his early feedback and you will note that he gave and received some of his Positives from the same person (Positive pumping) and this shows some degree of e-savy. Also note that most of the people who Negged him are still buying/selling on e-bay with excellent feedback records. Judging by some of the "love-fest" responses in this thread it no longer surprises me how playing the (Indonesion) "race card" can work. If it is implied that the 59 negatives are false and "his good name" needs restoring, then what about the "good names" and money losses of his 59 rip-off victims? One rip-off is one too many!!

That could happen. A friend of mine was one of the winning bidders in a dutch auction. The seller apparently wasn't satisfied with the price he got, and refused to sell. My friend contacted the other winning bidders and asked them if they had received their items. When he was told that they hadn't, he encouraged them all to leave negative feedback, and many of them did so.

We can all learn some valuable lessons here...
Don't let your pet monkey smoke crack and post your auctions for you.
People don't like to pay $6 shipping for Dreamcast modules.
It takes a whole lot of neg's to get naru'd.
