<p>[QUOTE="princeofwaldo, post: 1348136, member: 24091"]The whole eBay feedback system, as often discussed here, is grossly flawed. Never the less, I'm of the opinion that the buyer should have return privileges regardless of whether the coin is slabbed or not. There are simply too many ways to enhance photos to make anything seen on eBay (or any other site for that matter) the end-all representation of what a coin looks like regardless of whether it is in a slab or not. As for eBay removing the feedback, highly doubt they will do that. I received negative feedback several years ago on a slabbed coin followed by the buyer demanding a partial refund if I wanted the feedback removed. I complained to eBay that I was a victim of feedback extortion, and eBay's response was that it's only feedback extortion if the demand for compensation is made BEFORE the feedback is left, not after. That was a very dumb answer on eBay's part and cost them several thousand dollars income over the following 18 months because I didn't list a single item on their site. Personally, I much prefer eBid to eBay, -at least as a seller- I only wish it would develop a little more solid following by collectors and bidders. Takes forever to sell stuff there but they have it set-up much like eBay was in the good old days; -with the seller in control of his listings and in control of the terms of payment etc.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
