Title: Stealth listed products / hidden feedback
Post by: KeithLemon on August 20, 2013, 01:31 am
I have discovered that a vendor can "stealth list" a product in order to hide all feedback for that particular product, current or historical.

This is open massively open to abuse and I'd imagine this scenario has arisen... Say in the event a vendor is selling a poor quality product. He gets a lot of negative feedback on the potency/purity etc. He could hypothetically just stealth it and bye-bye customer feedback on the quality of the merchandise, leaving prospective buyers non the wiser. Stealth listing a product should not hide the vendors feedback but rather, just disable/hide the "view item" link.

Cheers

Stealth listings are open to abuse, sure, but they also conceal transactions that maybe you (and the buyer) would prefer to remain private.

Indeed its a good point.

Maybe stealth shouldn't be applied retrospectively to feedback/reviews then? Only feedback left whilst listing is stealthed is hidden by default.
