I once again agree with you Johnny, that all makes very good sense. Though if you print your shipping labels through paypal, a stiff package at 2oz cost $1.40 and the delivery confirmation is .19 totalling $1.58. At $3 shipping I cover all the materials plus the shipping charge and I am about even Steven. Dan.

I've left 4s... and less a few times, if the amount charged for shipping is significantly more than they spent. Sellers should buy a plain envelope and reuse bubblewrap... Don't pass on to the buyer $1.00 for a new padded envelope.
The new system is a mess... they shouldn't drop at 4.3 average, but maybe below 3.0. Then feedback could be honest. Also, multiple 1s and 2s should NOT be offset with 5s, there should be a system beyond the simple recent average that takes into consideration multiple low scores. I may well try to auction a T206 on the BST... I'll list it, folks can post offers. Post only if offering more than the last offer. No time limit ('cause the time limit factor on eBay, with sniping, renders it something other than a true auction). I'll announce at some point that the auction is about to close, or that the auction ends for lack of a sufficient bid. We'll see if we end up with a transaction, something additional to whine about, or both. Last edited by FrankWakefield; 05-27-2009 at 10:00 PM.

An auction should be just that -- the item sells to the highest bidder. None of this "I am canceling the auction as I don't think the bids were sufficient." If someone is not willing to accept whatever the highest bid is, then an auction is not the right match for them. It's not right to waste every bidder's time.

Ebay Feedback is a Farce
It is possible to leave an overall positive rating and glowing praise in the description, but give just one star in all of the categories. How does that make sense? There ought to be some checks and balances like forcing you to leave a neutral rating with a three star average and a negative rating with a one star average.

Some auctions have a reserve, Adam. And as I look this morning it has reached 9.75, so it is sufficiently high that I'll sell it. I do thank you for posting that here, instead of miring up the auction by posting in the BST.
