    When you rate a transaction, how can you split that rating between the seller and the item?
                     
             

    I am being prompted to give feedback on an item that i recently purchased.  It is a small furniture item. 

     

    There are several problems with the item. The quality isn't good, and it required assembly, (with 17 "wood" pieces to put together), but had no instructions, (not even an exploded assembly drawing), no list of parts, (just a freezer bag containing assorted & unmarked hardware), and there were damaged and missing parts.  Plus, the manufacturer's online info sheet states that it is solid wood, and a bit of paper veneer chipped off, and it doesn't even look like MDF, but more like some kind of laminated cardboard. 

     

    The seller has been in contact, & seems to be trying to resolve it. If he sends the missing parts, i will be happy enough with him, and can give him a decent rating.  However, i would still not recommend the item, (and i see that people have multiples of it). 

     

    I am not returning the item, (because i already got it put together, and would have to drive for over an hour to get to a FedEx & don't have time),  but don't expect it to hold up very long with regular use. So, how do you warn people away from an item, without causing harm to the seller?
