Even I'm not perfect - but I'm close. :rolleyes: I have probably left less than 5 negative feedback in the 15+ years I've used ebay. 2 times I was sent an empty box - and got my money back. 2 times were deceptive practices (inaccurate description, purposefully deceptive and faked photos) and one was for Tiger Direct sending me junk merchandise from another country (230v plug included) which was listed as new and a US model (and they ought to know better with 10's of thousands of sales) and tried to stick me with the return shipping. Boy I sure do miss the "negative buyer" feedback though. I've had so many people try to scam me!
