Just to confuse matters even more... Recently I ran an auction on eBay
to sell an 'Android Base'. The high bidder had less that favorable
feedback. Rather than just toss in the towel, I made sure my intentions
(as the seller) were clear and unambiguous. He paid. Less than two weeks
at that. So just because someone screws up royally, it doesn't mean that
they won't clean up their act (nor does it mean they will).
Back to the subject matter:
Is the feedback system on eBay patented ? If not, I think that this is
a good model. It allows folks to leave positive history for good dealing
and negative for bad ones. In the end, it all sorts itself out
