Yes, I think it is a little suspicious. I am too nice a person sometimes,
and I don't put limits on 0 rating bidders, and one or two negatives are not
too big of concern, if they do have positive ones. This bidder is about 3

can see his feedback, which is not fair to sellers at all. He of course has
not responded yet. What a horrible concept!
