I think multiple feedbacks from the same person do not count more than once.

Joe's correct. 90 total feedbacks (transactions) from 38 different people.

you get the 1 point per ebayer, not transaction. go check out the 2nd page of his past feedback...same names keep popping up.


that and the fact that some people do not leave feedback...you get a transaction (90) point but no feedback point if no feedback is left.

I remember one time I purchased about 30 seperate cards from one seller within a day or so. He left me feedback for every card and I did the same for him. It only counted as ONE POSITIVE feedback. I have a feedback rating of over 400 positive feedbacks (no negs or neutrals) but I have over 500 total positive feedbacks. It's possible to have more total positive feedbacks than the overall feedback rating. Sometimes it looks a little suspicious but in many cases (probably most) there is a good reason for it.

I don't know this particular seller so I can't vouch for them.

Look at it this way, if you could get 30 positive points from one person, you could also get 30 negative points from one person.

Ebay feedback was not always that way, it used to count as a feedback toward your number for each one received whether they were from multiple or same sellers. Heck, in the early ebay days (late 90s) you did not even have to be involved in a transaction with someone to leave them feedback.
