Why is it that some vendors have their rating listed in parentheses next to their name and others do not? I've noticed it not just on new vendors, but also on vendors that have been on SR for months.

I'm not completely sure but it seems to be a percentage of positive feedback. The best vendors all seem to have 98+ after their names.

Wondered that myself??

If I'm not mistaken you need to have passed either 5 or 10 transactions, I'm not sure how many it is, I think 5.
E2A it is the % of positive feedback

still, there are vendors who have well below a 98+ rating and it is still listed by their name. Can anyone clarify?

if a vendor has less than 5 reviews, it's kinda hard to give a fair % coz 1 person giving them 1/5 would drop their rating to around 85% which isn't a good/fair indicator of the vendor for the buyers ... they need a chance! .... this is also why vendors with 300+ sales and 98% ratings can be considered pretty solid! But any vendor with hundreds of sales who has a rating in the 90's and has been around for a year is usually alright in my book
