Now when I get an offer, if the price is right, the first thing I do is look at the FB the buyer has left for others.
I have a offer right now but they left a negative for a item that arrived broken. The seller replied to the negative that he had refunded the money but they given a negative anyway. I didn't take the first offer and now they increased it a little and want to know if I'm getting the offers. I tempted to tell them yes and why I am not taking the offer.

I do the same thing, look into the feedback to see what headache might be around the corner.
I just rejected a very good offer on a item this past week strictly because of his past feedback and what he put in for his own terms. WHOA!!! He was giving me his own refund terms!!! I declined and blocked him. I believe that I saw headache down the road.
I am still a bit confused about this DSR crap! What happens if the buyer doesn't fill in the DSR part when they leave feedback?? How does that effect you in the long run??

The problem is, that is not going to work for long. Before much longer, every buyer will have 100% positive feedback. That is one of my big beefs with this new system, as buyers we will have no idea if a buyer is good or bad.

Amber I don't look at their FB but what they have left for others. Their FB means NOTHING now.
I think it's important as a sellers to reply to any bad FB as well.
mamachia - I'm not 100% sure but I think if they don't leave DSR's just FB, then it has no affect at all.
