OT/ The Health of the Hobby

[frankbmd]

We frequently discuss problems related to our hobby, including bid retractions, shilling and various and sundry issues related to eBay and Auction Houses.

But not to worry, I post here today to report that the health of our hobby is in excellent condition.

As evidence I have unfortunately located an eBay seller who has nothing to do with baseball cards, vintage or modern, and nothing to do with memorabilia or ephemera.

His feedback rating is currently at 96.6%, which is no doubt influenced by

450 negative feedbacks







































in the last month.:eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek:

I think as a group we doth protest too much.:D

I can't imagine their in-box.

Let me guess, one of the huge retail surplus sellers that do insane volume?

I saw something I wanted from one of them, and looked at the feedback. Just couldn't do it. Same deal, sold like 50K items a month and had 4-500 negatives each month. Stuff out of stock, broken in shipping, wrong thing shipped..... And apparently almost no response from them.

At least they are consistent?
