This site explains that some years ago a number of experienced buyers/sellers were ask to join the 'EXPERT GROUP' formed by eBay. It stated that as they were not, and are not eBay employees that they gave the best advice they could in an unbiased manner. Some of the expert remarks to me have been quite insulting and not the unbiased manner one would hope to receive from an expert.
I find from the responses that I have received with regard to my VALID NEGATIVE FEEDBACK being disallowed, that this might be because I included a concern about the eBay response to my problems.
I was told by an expert that eBay know of the issues with this Seller (who sells both expensive buildings – sheds etc but mostly very cheap items). The cheap items contribute vastly to the Seller’s Positive Feedback, and are designed to offset the Building Negative & Neutral Feedbacks which are watered down further due to a number of them being disallowed. As a consequence I was more than a hundred pounds out of pocked.
If eBay truly wanted to have a reliable platform for their Sellers & Buyers and if they are concerned about this Seller and any other who manipulate the Feedback Percentages, then they had the ability to remove my eBay comment, or amend it, thus enabling potential Buyers to make up their own mind based on True Feedback percentages and comments.
I think that I may have answered my own question here, because there is not an open forum that allows conversations about unfair Procedures to enable Policy Amendments. We are constrained by not being allowed to speak freely.
My answer to my question is:
NO THIS IS NOT A COMMUNITY SITE TO SELF-REGULATE EBAY.
Due to its contents, my words will probably not be published, or allowed any response from anyone other than an unbiased expert.
