Title: auto-finalize rate goes UP as I spend more?
Post by: F104 on March 01, 2012, 12:01 pm
Buyer here. A couple months ago I was at about 26 or 27 transactions. An order was on its way, then a work obligation and winter weather left me stuck in a remote location. I was unable to log on and the order auto-finalized.

I continued to make transactions. The rate on my buyer stats page dropped to just over 1%.

In the last week I finalized early on a couple buys and now the rate has gone UP to almost 4%.

I have ONE auto-finalize on my record. That means that as total money spent increases, the AF rate must go down. Also, somewhere I read some text about buyer stats being weighted to recent activity. If that is true, as the AF recedes in history it should count for less, not more.

1. Have any other buyers gone through this?
2. DPR, are you aware of this? What's the cause, when will it be fixed?

If my record has blemishes I will own up to them, but if I trade messages with a vendor about my stats, how can I account for or take responsibility for 3rd party errors that are wrong and make me look bad? This particular metric is a very easy thing to get right.
