Mikey : true, listen to Doppie1200. And if you still have doubts, question yourself why Doomy has hidden his feedback score as there is usually only one single reason, that is to hide the negative comments you have received !!! I have read many comments in his list (before it became private) about money that has been sent but from which he says it wasn´t received while the bank said the cheque was being offered. Also ask yourself why he won´t accept PayPal or even bank transfer ?!?! It´s just too fishy if you think about it for a few moments ...
I´ve never had any problems with this guy because I didn´t want to do any business with him after I read his feedback score ...

Mikey : true, x56h34 has set his feedback score to private. Didn´t know that. But on the other hand, a score of 98,9% doesn´t raise any questions but the 93.5% of retrogeek001 makes me say "no" !!! But the story about that money order is pathetic. There are so many other ways for payment that are very secure and fast and without any doubt, from which PayPal is the most obvious. I have also had bad experience with cheques that never arrived or were never mailed. Therefor I take only ways of payment where both seller and buyer can have proof of payment ..

Then you are one of the lucky ones, but it is generally accepted on Ebay that a feedbackscore of lower than 97% is considered to be not reliable. About those "retaliatory" feedbacks, I have spend some time checking his feedback before it was private, and took time to see where it came from and why it was negative, and I can assure you that most of those negative feedbacks were done BEFORE Doomy "gave them one first"  :-o The exact dates behind the feedback told it all without any doubt !!!!

Mikey : There´s something I do not understand : "Personally, I do not trust an eBay seller with a perfect 100% feedback score. It means they are paying eBay to remove the negatives that they did get. EVERY eBay seller is going to get negative feedback, no matter what you do, because you can't please everybody and there are some real petty jerks out there." If you have received negative feedback then you can forget about getting your 100% back !! Those who have 100% have NEVER RECEIVED NEGATIVE FEEDBACK !!! But on the other hand it´s true that you can´t please everybody. My own feedback score is also "only" 98,4% but I´m willing to discuss every negative feedback in public as my feedback score is not private. If you have been six years on Ebay then what are your own feedback scores if I may be so curious to ask ???  :-?

EDIT : I am far from perfect, but look at it from another side. If you have to go to a hospital to have some major sugury, would you feel comfortable knowing that your doctor has got 10% bad customers ???  :-?

Doomy : a key thing to keep your identiy private is not pretending you´re somebody else and telling Doomy´s mother lives at Huntsville as this is not supposed to be common knowledge ... also the words you are using can be found almost identical in other postings of you on this forum ...

Glitch : the rule is that you only send goods when the payment is received, not before. It´s a fair thing that every buyer is supposed to accept. Sorry to hear you got framed, but appearantly you can not trust everybody as there are always bad guys ...

Glitch : good idea but one can tell whatever he wants and it is often very hard to track down data ...
