Title: What's up with the feedback?
Post by: culmint on March 08, 2012, 04:30 pm
For some reason I'm not getting product specific feedback on item listings. I just see the same feedback for the seller on all of their items. What's up with that?

Its doin this for me too and is super annoying! you cant tell which feedback is for which item, a lot of vendors have multiple items..how would you tell which feedback is for which??? and the dates are missing.. please tell me this is temporary.

yeah, by all means, we gotta protect sellers and hide the size of their true operation..... but is the guy in the feedback saying the seller's lsd is bomb or his weed is bomb?

this people, is why if you leave feedback, mention exact product received, shipping times, and quality, so we all can determine if the feedback is for the "item in question"

and for god sakes people, wait to leave feedback until after you get your shit. and be specific..

This FE for trusted seller shit just destroys the shitty feedback system we  now have!!!

***To make the most out of this shitty feedback system:
1) If you finalize early, after clicking on finalize, DO NOT click "leave feedback" please. Instead, click the SR link at top left to navigate back to the home page will will not leave an unnecessary feedback without a product review... then once your package arrives, click on "orders" and at that point you can enter a product review and leave your feedback.

2) It would be very helpful if everyone mentioned which product they received from the vendor in the feedback they leave, and make sure this review is detailed enough regarding the quality that a fellow buyer could make a reasonable decision of whether or not to buy... your review may be the only one another buyer will be able to see for a given product

3) Please be aware that you are able to update your feedback if you are not satisfied for some reason or if you did leave "finalized early." Just go to your acct page, then click on "view feedback" and you may edit each one from there. This may be especially important if someone begins to scam unexpectedly.

I believe this will make buying easier for all the buyer on the Road. We can also help to fight all the scammers and protect each other to the best of our ability. Please let me know if anyone else has any other suggestions. Thank you

The randomized feedback barely improves security for sellers (if at all) and just creates a hassle for buyers. We need to make the best of what we have though. Making sure that you indicate what product you're reviewing is good etiquette like killboy said.

I would like to see people put a date in their feedback.This may go against what SR is trying to do with minimizing LE's ability to monitor SR, though.

Example:

5/5 Product received, good packaging, excellent quality 3/12/12.


I just don't like not knowing how recent the feedback is. With a vendor like Pharmville, it isn't a problem because you know it is all recent, but not everyone does that quantity of business.

This is probably the worst decision SR has made so far. Feedback is completely useless now. Might as well just remove it.

I'm a vendor here and not to happy about it either. I appreciate trying to hide the scope of someones OP but who's to say that I can't buy a bunch of my cheap items just to boost my stats and lie out of my ass..... I mean technically I can do this and so can any other vendor...

Looks like they changed the feedback a little, when you click on a listing you see the feedback for that product not the generic feedback that appears on the home page of vendors like it was last week. That makes it a little easier for a buyer to judge whether they really want that product or not but I agree not having the date does make it harder to judge the current reliability of the seller.

The feedback system blows. Stealth order feedback is not posted. So a SCAMMER can have negative feedback hidden which doesn't reach the general buying public. This occurred with the late scammer "Roscochicken". Only SR knows the extent of his theft do to this and as usual only SR knows how much commission they made on these thefts. All feedback should be posted and if you don't want to date it SR, at least apply a freshness code with 1 being the newest and 5 being the oldest. Otherwise this now shitty feedback system lacks full disclosure.
