Im not much of an e- bay fan for the most part but every once in a while I check it out and see what I can find. A S is awesome btw and has actually enticed me to buy on e- bay more often. That said I only buy. And once upon purchasing an item I had to leave neg feed back. Took a little over a month to get my item. Paid with pay pal (verified) so did as I thought was the right thing to do. I instantly recieved neg feed back from the seller. They said I was the worst customer ever lol. After that experience I figured e- bay rating system was just another popularity contest and not worth the effort of leaving any feed back.
Im happy you got your money back and maybe pay pal might pay attention to the complaint. I doubt very much that e- bay will. If the new feed back policy of only having a feed back for the seller is actually legit then this should get the rating system closer to reality.
