    I got this in the mail (eBay email) this morning. Has anyone ever heard of such a thing before? Maybe I should thank wmsjewelers.

    Ebay is really making an effort to make buyers happy, some sellers are grumbling about it, but it is a step in the right direction. I personally look forward to the changes they have announced, yes, even the feedback rules.

    It took me a while to really accept them, but in reality, it improves the marketplace, and that helps all of us.

    can sellers neg you? i have had 3 bad experiences where i lost on shipping both ways and in one case i got stuck with 2 unwanted coins. if i neg the seller will i get a retaliatory feedback or did ebay get rid of that

    You can still get negative. Heres the problem. I always leave feedback right away. From a sellers stand point. If I have a buyer and he pays right away then I usually leave "
    ROCKET fast payment, Great Ebayer. HIHGLY RECOMM.AAA++++
    But the problem with this is the buyer still has to leave some type of feedback. I guess most buyer wait to leave feedback bacause they are afraid of getting a negative.

    woah how much do you have to get scammed out of before ebay gives you a 1500 gift card?

    From what I understand of it all, pretty much the same amount. $150=$150. I could be wrong, and have been in the past, but thats my take of it all.
