As an aside, INMHO E-bay feedback is seriously
broken, in that you can
bet seller will give you negative feedback if you give him negative
feedback, no matter how poor the product, how misleading the discription,
how promptly you paid, etc.
That's why, when I need to leave negative feedback, I do it minutes
before the 90-day deadline is about to go by.
I found out recently that this doesn't actually work.
If you know the item number and the ePay username of the person you're
trying to leave feedback for, you can do it forever (there is no
90-day deadline).
Also (curiously), leaving a feedback after such a long time (it was
getting on for a year in this particular case) "reanimates" the
auction listing - now those *do* expire after 90 days, but after I
left said feedback, the one for the auction suddenly became accessible
again.
Weird.
