I am an expert occasional eBay buyer and seller. After
joining in ‘97,
I have a 100% positive rating with 370 feedbacks.
No comment ;)
Unless it is something I haven’t seen elsewhere, I
definitely look at
the rating of the seller.
And how does that help? Let's say seller has 98% rating what does that tell you? Or
said in another way how does it affect your decision making process? I.E. would you pay
30% or even 10% more for the same item with a seller who has 100% rating (for whatever
that is worth as ratings are very much manipulated by sellers and eBay).
