    Ive just done another, the same again. 4 questions asking YES or NO and one giving marks out of 10. The most relevant being the ....'did it arrive by x Date'. Furthermore, on one item I didn't leave a comment as didn't notice the box until the second feedback, so you can leave 'dsr type' feedback now with no comment? Very odd. Very improved.

    Do you think it will be easier for the buyers to understand?
    I'll be interested in getting the option myself to see how it works.

    Absolutely. Let's face it, if I can understand it....anyone can. :rotfl:

    The fact it asks ...did you receive this by April 6th for example, is probably the combination of the two dates given by the seller, the despatch date and the method of posting. So that has to be an improvement on the current system surely? However, the fact one of my items was only purchased yesterday and arrived today and has the '17 March' question, would make me think the timeframe is somewhat haphazzard. My seller has 1 day despatch and 1st postage.

    Great - just another way to complicate the buying process.

    I generally care about things that affect my job, but maybe that's just me. *banned smilie goes here*

    If it helps the buyers not get confuddled about which star means good then I'm all for it.
    This is my opinion. There are many others like it but this is mine

    I am a professional ebay seller. I work hard at my job, I love my job, if you think it's silly that's your problem not mine. :p
