Ebay – Reviewing a Members Feedback & Questioning a Seller
Before actually bidding on an item you are interested in on Ebay, is it a good idea to read the positive and negative feedback that was left about the seller’s previous sales, and to check for a positive feedback score. This is not an extremely difficult task and does not take much time at all.
Once you see an item on Ebay that interests you, click on the link beside the picture to see more information about the item itself, and the information about the seller. Under the seller’s information, on the right hand side of the page, you will see a link that says “Read feedback comments”. You should click that link in order to read positive or negative feedback left about the seller on past sales.
Another way to read a seller’s positive or negative feedback, is to click their member name when you see it with a number beside it. The seller’s member name will often be blue. Once you click the seller’s member name, you will be able to view positive or negative feedback that has been left about the seller and view their feedback score.
