Who here is maintaining a perfect 5 star on any feedback categories?

cardsrus1 · 10-31-2008, 07:12 PM

I have finally complained to Ebay about their flawed star rating system. I have questioned them on how it is possible to offer free shipping and have a 4.5 star rating on shipping cost over the last month. Needless to say they danced around my question with a bs form letter response AND a claim that 72% of the sellers have perfect 5 star ratings on their feedback. As we all know that is total bs! I also questioned why they use a 1-5 star rating when their requirements are 4.4 and above, you cannot leave a 4.4 rating

Has anyone else wasted their time complaing about the system? If so what were the results?

I have all 4.9s. I don't think all 5s are possible.

im going to out on a limb here and say ebay doesn't give a rats ass about how we feel about their policies. LOL

I have a 5 on item as described, but I have a 4.6 on shipping charges and I ship at cost.

ebay has no feelings. They only respond to financial losses.

5.0
5.0
4.9
4.8 charge $2.50-$3.00 depending on card type, single card ,jersey or lots.
Sold with FREE s&h for 30 days just to see, never went over 4.8

I think buyers think if they all give low ratings on s&h Ebay will force sellers to lower s&h. Oops, they are!!

4.9
4.9
4.8
4.5

I ship for $3.25 and $0.51 for each additional item. I think I am going to drop my shipping to $2.99 or $3.00 and up my additional item charge.

I shipped with free shipping for 30 days and I still never got above a 4.5

I really think ebay is just trying to keep me under the 4.6 mark so they don't have to give me a 5% discount on my fees.
