Good call.

I buy and sell all the time on eBay and truely believe that feedback has an
effect on bidding and the final bid price.
I will only bid what the item is worth to me and only bid on items from
sellers with good feedback, hense, my first question of this thread.
I appreciate everyone sharing their experiences and I wish that they were
not so one sided.
Ebay has treated me right to this point.
