I've just about HAD it with eBay, and this ID's had too many low DSRs as it is this month from lost in post items combined with low sales that I think eBay are also about to decide I've had it with eBay, and kick me off.
I'm just furious about the feedback and low stars this guy has left. And terrified for this account. And all my accounts as a direct result of this one being suspended. I don't have long left.

That cable does not work on TurboGrafx consoles, but your auction lists that it does.

That aside, what's wrong with the feedback? You have 100%, no negatives in recent months, and this guy even left you a positive. Not to mention your star ratings are almost perfect across the board. On what grounds is eBay suspending any accounts?

I'm with nat; what's the big deal? If ebay kicks you off just because your DSRs are below a perfect 5.0 (which is pretty much impossible considering that a 4 is supposedly satisfactory), then they're nuttier than squirrel poop and may as well boot 99% of their members.

I agree with Nat/Necro.
PS - u got a PM in your inbox. :)

What's wrong with the feedback is it makes it look like I send cables that are cut up, twisted together then "mended with tape" insted of professionally soldered. I mailed the buyer amd asked him wtf and he expressed consternation that he could find no factory made cables and that my cables looked handmade so why couldn't I say so in auction? He also went on and on about how when he bought a Duo, the seller supplied a power supply where the end plug "came right off" and this sort of thing was "unprofessional." He's talking about those variable power supplies where you change the plug to the one you need, of course.
The ludicrous thing is, the thing he is talking about - that shiny bit of heatshrink is FACTORY APPLIED - it's a pre-made freaking cable! All I do is add the DIN on the end. Which he's not even referring to with his "mended with tape."
All this has cost me sales, I've not sold a single PCE cable on that account since.
And I didn't know for a long while about the TG not having an AV port. I've never seen a TG irl in my life in fact, they are awful looking and I only deal in Japanese PCE. Though I could have sworn I amended that in the listing a long gtime back, I must have accidentally relisted a listing which was incorrect. Although it's not actually hurt me because I haven't had anyone say they got it for a TG16 and it didn't work - they must know it won't I guess.

Kinda funny; there is an add for ebay showing up on this thread right now. :lol:

Let me be blunt, because I think you're overreacting. You're going to have a few dickheads not know the exact deal. Your feedback is still virtually perfect -- if your future potential bidders get their panties all twisted up because of that single feedback (from some dolt who can't even properly spell "kind of"), well, then so be it -- you probably don't want those types as your customers anyway,
Not to mention, you haven't had a "single order since", yet it's only been 3 days since the guy posted the feedback & your post. And if this single feedback is going to throw out your entire livelihood, then you're probably better off doing something else.

...then they're nuttier than squirrel poop...
:lol:
But yeah, I was confused as to why they were suspending your account as well.

So...you're being shafted because the reviewers accuse you of being a redneck?
Maybe you should consider auctioning your goods at a local online auction instead.
