I have feedback of 99.9% which is 1 negative out of 3577 feedback given during the last 12 months. The buyer never contacted me to say there was a problem. Since he knew I couldn't give one back he didn't care. When I buy, unless you have a lot of negatives, I just ignore them. It's just the way the broken system is.
