Seller Feedback % Doesn't Show on Listings

[transplantn]

Hi,  

I posted about this seller a week or two ago after she canceled the auction after I won it and then claimed I wanted to cancel it, which I did not. Then she relisted the item for a higher base price. I reported her to eBay and last night I noticed that I was able to leave her negative feedback for her dirty deed. But I'm wondering why her 5 listings show her user ID to the right with a (26) next to it for her number of feedback received over the years but no 0% under it. My negative feedback was the only feedback she has got in the last 12 months. It's not a big deal but I had hoped her poor rating would show up on her listings. TIA for any info on this.

If a seller has not received any positive feedback in the last year, no feedback percentage is displayed in the seller information section of the listing.

If that seller receives a positive rating in the next year, the percentage will be displayed (as 50%).

When you check this sellers FB by clicking on the FB > Positive Feedback (last 12 months): 0%

Just because you left a negative feedback that does not mean the positive (26) count will decrease, it remains the same only there is now (1) showing under her negatives.

Thank you for the input.
She has about 5 listings but the item she canceled on me after I won the auction isn't one of them. 
eBay might have removed the listing because of the way she treated me with that item.
I guess someone also might have won the auction for it or bought it with Buy It Now.

@transplantn,

eBay will not show a seller's feedback to be less than 0%.  On the original listing if you saw the (26) but there was no % you should have checked before bidding. If their feedback was (0) You should have checked as well.  This is one reason why you should check the feedback profile of each seller before bidding/buying, even those who have a 100% rating.

I checked the seller's feedback page and found that except for the feedback you left, they hadn't sold anything, or received any feedback for selling before.   I have a feeling the cancellation may have been due to the 21 day payment hold ebay places on new sellers first few payments.  Many new sellers do not know about the hold and how to deal with it, especially those who have been buyers.  On their account your payment was marked as Pending and if it was several days before they cancelled, they may have felt that you had not paid, and therefore had cancelled somehow.

   "Then she relisted the item for a higher base price".

Unless ebay pulled the re-listing, there is no indication of either of the 2 items she has sold recently being relisted or sold.

It looks as if the Olympus camera hasn't sold yet. The seller really should have accommodated you. Bummer.

Here's the auction that the OP left the neg for; it ended on February 4. It had one bidder and ended at $90:

Here's the relist that the OP has mentioned; that 10-day auction had an opening bid of $150. It ended on February 14 with no bidders:

I tracked down a couple of other sellers who have 0% ratings, and their percentage didn't show up on their listing pages, either. Perhaps eBay has decided not to display zero percent ratings? They've done quirkier things.

I've had this happen a number of times. People list something as auction that has little demand, so it sells at or near their starting price.... I've bought things where the shipping cost (free shipping) exceeded the winning bid. You left your feedback.... now let it go. If you let too many things bother you here, things will always bother you. Or as I say (points at face) "This is my IDGAF face".

If I can't sign in with an alternate user ID here, I don't want to post here any more. Not that I ever posted here much anyway. I posted here not b/c I was upset, I was just curious about something.

I was over tired the other day and may have taken some things the wrong way.

No harm no foul and please feel welcome to post here whenever you want to 😊
