    Here's where this auction gets really fun & exciting: I'm going to carefully remove them all from the cardboard holders & tubes & place them into the cardboard box you see on the bottom right & mix them up real good with a big stick!

    I'll ship the cards & coins randomly from the boxes after each auction.

    We all get bored from time to time NP

    44 negs in the past month, can't be all bad

    I would like to know who does the math there at eBay:

    Ebay says the seller has 97.2% positive feedback

    513 positive feedbacks
    47 negative feedbacks

    that means 1 of 10 have left negs which would be closer to 90% not 97.2%

    Did you read why the guy received all of the Negs ? Buyers that do not read the whole auction are a pain in the arse.

    I think this is because 10 negs by one buyer = 1 neg into the equation. If those 47 negs had been by 47 different individuals then the count would be closer to the 90% mark.
    I decided to change calling the bathroom the John and renamed it the Jim. I feel so much better saying I went to the Jim this morning.

    I did read the reason: nearly all buyers said "poor communication"

    Barndog this was not directed to you it was a general statement..... image

    Read when the seller will ship the items. It is stated right in the auction. It looks to me that people jumped the gun and thought the bulbs, which received most of the negs, would be shiped immediately. If mid November rolled by and nothing was received then a neg would be warranted if the seller did not respond. Again buyers must read auctions completely.

    I've had buyers make errors or inappropriate assumptions in the past...I think many of us have similar experience. A major difference between 100% positive feedback sellers and those with poor feedback is communication after the close of the auction. Seems this seller of plant bulbs has a problem with customer service. I don't anticipate the feedback will get much better with "cards & coins" grab-bag auctions. Yet, the gullible masses will still buy, go figure!
