It will take a while to get it up, but I'm not sure the 2% is worth the effort. I lost mine because I slowed down on selling...I'm holding onto a bunch of silver for a while.
I think it does pay to be very careful when emailing some of these unscrupulous sellers as retaliation goes right along with their morals. I point out that I see a mistake and leave it at that.

You get a 20% discount or something, it seems worth it for someone like me because I may start selling a lot eventually. Same here. With this certain guy, I was not insulting (just assertive) and he lashed out on me. This guy is a top rated seller...

I feel your pain- I've gotten neutrals and negatives too from people who just won't work with you and people who don't read auctions. There are difficult people out there, to be sure! Not worth getting upset about it though.
If you do enough volume and treat the customeres right and be pleasant in response to emails, you will get repeat buyers. I have some sellers I really enjoy going back to over and over.

Had one complain about a hairline scratch...told him no problem, return it for a refund.He entered a negative and said I didn't respond. ebay did nuke that one but it took an act of congress.Always use ebay messages so they have record. Yes the 20% and 2% are the same thing Shadow...seller fees are reduced from 9% to 7%...there are other venues but ebay is almost a guaranteed sale.And mycrob has a point...I even have buyers that will buy from me privately now but it takes a while to get to that point. |

I find that sometimes the best way to get rid of the dumb negs is to buy from the person who negged you...I had this one person give me one for absolutely no reason in a similar way to you maineman, and I tried to contact them and they ignored me. So I just bought from them and asked them again to remove the negative, and they got the message : )
I guess its not very 'nice', but hey, what can ya do?

I won a Morgan from this seller back in Dec/2010, still haven't received my coin. After e-mailing him several times,I finally told him I would contact ebay if He did not replay. So he did, telling me there was no point in replying because as hes said (What was he suppose to do) I have email this guy many time always being nice and polite, and still no coin. I still have not given a negative feed back hoping he will wake up and stop telling me all about his problems and fix mine. After all I am out the money, I just cant figure him out he has never offered any help in any way. |

So you packaged it very well and the buyer had a hard time getting the coin out, so he gives you a neutral for this? Sometimes you just can't win, and stuff like this is one of the reasons I don't enjoy selling on ebay any longer. |

My post was in response to the OP, not you acan. His feedback reflected someone giving him a neutral because the buyer had apparently a hard time getting the coin he won out of the package. That indicates to me that it was packed very well and securely so IMO a neutral feedback was not warranted. Sorry if that wasn't clear.

I tested his little 'complaint' and I had absolutely zero trouble getting a coin out even after forgetting where the tape ended, and I was confident enough that I used a more valuable coin than his.

They really have to rework the 'standard' system, I mean, below standard with straight 4.9 ratings? Really? It completely shafts lower level sellers.
