    What has feedback to do with anything? I thought this thread was about business registration. I think you will find that most people maintain a 99-100% average with high stars as well.

    it is actually - it is possible for people to be honest in listings, charge correct postage with only a small amount for postage and not £3.49 for standard post for a tshirt!! It would cost £1.30 max to send a tshirt so i charge £1.50!

    Im also fully aware of my buyers rights and therefore dont put stupid terms in my listings like payment within 34 hours and make sure anything valuable or not covered by standard pop cert is sent special delivery. I also make sure im as honest as possible with my descriptions and dont dance around the truth.

    Have a look on ebay theres hundreds of sellers with 100% feedback and very good stars. it is possible just because you dont have it, doesnt mean others dont!

    soolin i really dont know, if you read some of angstdatas posts through the thread, he said he was just commenting on me and then i popped up and started going on about how he had searched my user name on this forum on ebay and couldnt find me etc!!! i honestly dont know what it has to do with it! he seems to think its not possible for people to actually have 100% feedback and good stars!!

    I think the comment was because he did not believe that anyone could have such a good rep on ebay . Personally I think Angastdata themselves is still an OK seller, 99.4% overall feedback is absolutely great, obviously the stars are a bit more of a concern but that does probably reflect the £3.49 standard 1st class for a t shirt postage which will annoy some buyers.

    Oh, and before anyone searches for me, I only use the pseud Soolin on here not on any other website or on ebay. All my ebay ids are completely different and I even swap gender for some of the user names.

    no ( Sunnysea ) - I merely say " put up or Shut up " - you are criticising my listings ( and any others that you dont like the look of ) whilst not allowing yours to be viewed

    You choose to show yours I always strongly advise against it.

    Anyway why should anyone need to prove their feedback ?

    As i said earlier in my post, you posted your listing number, i didnt go looking for it, you wanted advice on it, you got advice on it not only from me but just about every other person who commented on that thread! All we were trying to do was advise you on where your going wrong.
