How low can your Feedback Percentage be before theres a problem?

[theheadphonecompany]

Not mine of course, cause mine is at 100 - and has been so for the last 3 -4 yrs  (no thanks to the maniacs in San Jose) ....

Theres a seller who has just north of 800K feedbacks (and good for them).

HOWEVER - the numbers lie since each year they get about 4500-5000 NEGATIVES, making their current feedback percentage 96.5%.

Now of course we all know what would happen if that was us, but on top of it all - eBay picked him for DEAL OF THE DAY/BUYER PROTECTION/BELOVED candidate. Hes right at the top somewhere, hawking his stuff and making sales (almost 4k of them).

So is this thekind of seller that eBay REALLY wants? (5K negatives a year?)(%96.5 feedback) ???????

Mind boggling how eBay will manufactor all kinds of hidden rules (god its such **bleep**) to hurt some small seller and steal their funds/items .... yet some guy with 5000 negatives a year - not only still sells on eBay - but gets picked for SPECIAL treatment.

Maybe someone can ask them that at eBay CLOSED (for business)?

Simply put, EBay does NOT consider feedback.
The seller is a very high-volume seller and probably enrolled in some program that costs dearly to be placed as a "Deal of the Day" seller. If the seller gets his shipments out on time and they are correct for the most part, it doesn't matter what other members say in feedback, ebay rates sellers on their performance, and placement of sellers is based on (voluntary) additional fees.
