I'm not a mega seller, I usually sell like 2 or 3 things a week. I can't remember exactly when it happened it was definitely within the last 6 months though and probably the last 3 or 4. I think it was november/demcember

basebal21: Have you ever used any of those "reports" that ebay makes available to sellers? If so, there's one where you punch in 10 item numbers from 10 items that you sold and it runs the results and it tells you what the DSR ratings are from those 10 people. Some people don't bother leaving any DSR ratings, so you might have to swap out a few item numbers and bring in a few others...but eventually you should get to the point where you have 10 people who have given you DSR ratings. The BEST circumstance is where you lock in on 10 people who gave you PERFECT ratings. Then, all you have to do is drop out one of those item numbers and insert some other item number. When you see your perfect shipping score drop from 5 to anything less than 5, you have just identified a buyer who gave you a less than perfect score. If your shipping score is 5 and then one item drives it down to 4.6, it means you just found a buyer who gave you a 1!!

Like I said, it's a lot easier to do this if you can round up 10 perfect scores before trying to identify the "rotten apple", but it can be done even without 10 perfect scores...it just makes the math a little more complex.

Just explain in the listing that you think the small flat rate box is the best idea. (I do too.) I do the same thing on fishing lures. I just put in my listings they will be shipped in a small flat rate box. Priority mail is much safer than regular.

Ive never used any of the report features they have. I just tried to do a couple and I'm pretty sure I did it all wrong because I couldnt see any of the DSR ratings. I know I could easily find 9 perfect ratings if I could figure it out since my rating in that category has been climbing back up since that hit from the 1. The only reason I even noticed that was when I checked the top rated seller thing and it said I had 1 in that category. I actually just checked it again and it says it wasnt in the last 3 months but it did show up on in the past 12 feature

Well...just to be sure...did you find your way to THIS screen?

Is-This-Shipping-Price-Reasonable?

If not, the steps are:
1.) Seller Dashboard
2.) Detailed Seller Ratings Reports
3.) Report type: Item Numbers

I tried to do the one where it does it for you instead of putting it in by hand. Wish I knew that back when it happened lol but I think ill take some time this weekend and figure out who it was.

Ill never figure out why people complain about stuff thats clearly listed like the shipping price
