[QUOTE="umtrr-author, post: 135275, member: 5719"]Not defending the seller, but just offering some general explanation on the specific example in case anyone hasn't see this before... which I doubt, but you know what happens when you assume. If you look at the feedback profile there are 31,285 feedbacks. These were left by 14493 specific eBay members. Each member gives one feedback bump regardless of how many positives were left. So if I buy 100 coins from you in 100 separate auctions and I give you 100 positives, it still increases your feedback rating by only 1. The 14,493 positive members are offset by 55 who left a negative -- although interestingly, eBay does not offer the total number of negative comments as a statistic. The most any member can ding a seller is still by 1. If I got taken on 25 coins in 25 different auctions and left 25 negatives for the seller, I still only reduce the seller's rating by 1.
