It's Positive Feedback, But . . .

Don't you hate when buyers say something like:

GREAT CARD! - GREAT PRICE! - THANKS!!!!!

Yeah, I feel GREAT about basically giving you a beautiful, undergraded, slabbed card.

My advice: Don't mention the price or the GREAT DEAL you got on a card.

Salt in an open wound!

    I suppose that'd be all right for a store item, but, yeah, for an auction item -- that's really just gloating.


    I got a weird feedback recently for a graded card I sold. The feedback was "Nice bible, sent quickly".

    Ha, that's awesome!

    I try not to sell too many bibles on eBay.

    positive is always better than negative. Most folks don't read the feedback much anyways.
    Running an Ebay store sure takes a lot more time than a person would think!

    I don't think this is any big deal at all. If you don't like the price you sold a card for, like RichG always used to say, ...............

    I don't see the problem at all with that feedback, in fact, I think it's a very good feedback to get. Any buyer reading that feedback will be thinking he can get a good deal on your auctions. Get enough people thinking like that and you're suddenly hammering auctions at twice what you used to get.

    I agree, nice feedback. I leave similar ones often. If you do not like what you sold the card for, set a reserve.

    5STATs example is a little different as it is pretty random.

    that is the funniest link of all time, you gotta admit, for the most part it's good, clean and humerous as hell.

    If I'm happy with the card I got I say so in the feedback, and always add "will buy again from this seller". I want the seller to know I'm happy, and want other bidders to know I got a good deal and they can too. I might sometimes say "nicer than expected".

    I wouldn't complain about getting that feedback. After all, you are the one offering the card. You can set a reserve and you can choose where to start the bidding.
