Would this ebay feedback bother you?

khayse · January 9, 2004 4:07AM

I sold a couple things on ebay over Christmas. Talking to the buyer after the auction he mentioned that he thought he bid
a lot on the items. Then I get this feedback:

> I spent like a KING but received a Crown from terrific ebayers.....

> It didn't come cheap but I got what I paid for-- Excellent Bear---Excellent Serv

Would it bug you that he's kind of complaining about how much he paid in my feedback?
Am I being too sensitive?

As long as it was a positive, even those who read his comments know how e-bay works... you pay no more than you bid!

He's trying to give himself positive feedback also. Don't sweat it, it's Friday afternoon.

I wouldn't worry about it.

The first one he's commiting a pun. Sounds like he's happy to me. Second one, he got what he paid for, what more need be said.

Sounds like positive feedback to me.

Actually, that is GREAT feedback. It says to other buyers "Don't hesitate to pay strong money in this guy's auctions because his stuff is worth it."

Excellent point Russ.

Agreed. Sounds like fine feedback to me.

some people like a little whine with their meals...

postive is positive no matter what he said

Tsimmerdown · January 9, 2004 4:55AM

It's not your run of the mill feedback, but it definetly sounds positive to me. Sounds a little more poetic than my usual feedback, but I think he or she means well, and IMO it should be accepted as that.

Don't worry about it. Save your concerns for more serious matters.

I got one the other day that said my kung fu is strong. I thought that was pretty cool.

Russ, NCNE

ElectricEye · January 9, 2004 5:08AM

I would know nothing about that, Russ....

Better than "Great ebayer. A++++++++++"

So the guy who left me positive feedback BUT said MY kung fu was lukewarm wasn't 100% satisfied?

Thanks guys. The guy was slightly difficult to deal with. I combined shipping on 3 orders and he was
questioning how much I was charging and asking me to check other methods of shipping. He wanted it quick
because it was the Friday before Christmas (the auction ended Monday or Tuesday and he waited until Friday to
paypal me and ask me to hurry up). I guess he seemed like high maintenance and the feedback struck me as
a left-handed compliment.

I would love to get one that said my kung fu is strong. Or "The force is strong with this Ebayer".

I'll have to buy or sell some stuff so that's not what's at the top of my feedback everytime I look at it.

Thanks again,
-Keith

I try to give good pics and don't grade, just tell the bidder to do thier own eval. A while back a buyer left this two word feedback in caps "CAN'T COMPLAIN". His way of saying he paid too much but his fault at the same time. The coin did go for more than I thought it would. I didn't mind, thought he was creative and put a smile on my face.

Would this ebay feedback bother you?
