I have read many times here why people do and do not leave negative feedback. I can respect those people and their opinions. They have their own "business" and can run it the way they want.
This morning I had a winning bidder who paid me via PayPal. The item was not expensive and insurance was offered but they did not take it. Their e-mail was full of questions like How are you going to ship?Will I have a tracking number?How long will it take to arrive?What happens if it gets lost in the mail?
As you can guess, red flags went up everywhere on this one. The only thing I had to go by was the winner's feedback. They have been a member for several years and have feedback of less than 100 with all positives, no neutrals or negatives. I can also assume that his questions were asked because he has been burnt by a seller before. All he really has to go by is my feedback as well.
I can only hope that the previous sellers left appropriate feedback. My thanks to the sellers who leave feedback on each and every transaction.
