I had no idea any of this was going on. I have never bothered with the "star" portion of the feedback rating. I just leave them blank out of laziness. I had no idea I might actually be doing the sellers a favor.

How is it that sellers who routinely pass off counterfeits as originals, or who sell cut-out pictures from magazines as baseball cards, are still running rampant on ebay. But sellers who get a rating of better than "very good" in every category can be booted off? Totally bizarre.

I was kidding.

Probably bc these sellers are not as concerned as others when their discount goes from 20% to 15% would be my guess.

That makes a lot of sense.
