    Check out the difference between eBay's ETAs and Amazon's. Do you really want eBay to count 'no' against you each time 1st Class is longer than 2 days or Airmail to ROTW is longer than 3 working days?
    ...or count neutrals as negatives so someone leaving a neutral rating with the comment 'Good' actually reduces your feedback percentage!!

    I am only a bronze PS and don't have enough turnover to get to silver, so I currently get 20% disoount which will go down to 10%.
    Silver is the same discount as bronze - you don't hit the next level until Gold.
    And as for the new automatic 5* communication rules .....
    I still don't understand the worry about this?!? What is the problem exactly? Its not going to be worse than it is now - in fact in many cases it will be better.
  • I agree that I may not now go over and above but I will still do as required so in essence very few buyers will notice the difference.

    Re Amazon and neutrals - that really p's me off. I've had 3 that left me glowing feedback but a 3* which took down my overall % which is rather frustrating!

    In all honesty though I think that Amazons way of working is much fairer - I love the dispatch & estimated delivery timeframe - it's currently allowing me to give eBay priority and still meet my Amazon customers expectations.

    That does cover anyone from 10 - 45.....

    I was meaning someone over 15 would be able to accept that it takes a few days for an item to arrive, someone's who 8 might sit under the letterbox every day until their item arrives.
