Ebay omitting low DSR's now!
Comments

They are better at doing it now than they were - and I think you need to specifically report the issue to get them to do it.Ebay do state that they seek out and remove low DSR's that are left with positive feedback - but i've never heard of them actually doing it.
One of mine from 7 months ago disapeared - but i think maybe the person who left it was thrown off."Well, it's election year, Bill, we'd rather people didn't exercise common sense..." - Jed Bartlet, The West Wing, season 4

Maybe they finally realise how many decent sellers they are punishing and driving away. The 3 months grace if your status drops is a step in the right direction - but still think the systems too open too abuse. Ebay should concentrate more on real scammers and fake bidders.
I must admit they removed my negative - my first ever - without too much fuss and the buyer was warned about her behaviour (she emailed me after to say she did not realise she was doing anything wrong).0 -
Wow, well done! Was this done automatically? I only ask as I had a blatant scammer the other week demanding things left right & centre after he'd paid & if I didnt do them he'd neg me.... Needless to say after he refused a mutual cancellation & I refunded within an hour of the original purchase, he left me a stonking neg & Ive never even had a neutral - just wondered if this would be the same situation?0
