[QUOTE="Lehigh96, post: 1907652, member: 15309"]That is worse, if you don't believe what you are spouting on an ideological level, then the only reason to agree with it is because it personally benefits you. And I don't need to sell my coins elsewhere. I am a top rated seller and I follow E-Bay's rules to the letter. That said, I have been a member of E-Bay since 2000, and I have seen the transformation first hand. I would like to think that E-Bay would have denied the SNAD complaint on Joe's coin had he correctly implemented a "no returns" policy, but I just don't know. The SNAD policy can be avoided for the most part through excellent photography and detailed descriptions. What can't be avoided is the inequality in the feedback system. Allowing only one side (buyers) to leave negative feedback is utterly ridiculous. Not only does it create a system whereby buyers can engage in feedback blackmail, it also insulates buyers from having to do the one thing that every seller wants, TO PAY for the item. I have sold 38 coins in 2014. Of the 38, 7 have been people who clicked on my BIN or made an offer that I accepted and then didn't pay for the item. These 7 coins totaled $3,360. Those coins were removed from my inventory for a significant period of time, I was forced to check to ensure that E-Bay in fact reimbursed my FVFs, and I don't even get the chance to warn other sellers that they are deadbeats. When a buyer makes a bad choice, they deserve to learn from their mistake. CAVEAT EMPTOR![/QUOTE]
