This petition is specifically protesting the changes to the feedback
system on eBay, in which the buyer can leave negative feedback for the
seller, yet the seller can only leave positive feedback or no feedback
for the buyer. These changes are unfair to the seller, and should not
be made. Please make your voice heard by signing this petition.

It seems that ebay has reckoned that many sellers are hooked ie: they have no
life or source of income outside of ebay, and therefore have no choice but to
put up with the constant fee increases and brainless, nitpicking rule
changes.
Myself and no doubt many others have well paying jobs, and use ebay to get
rid of odds and ends for a little cigarette/gas money on the side.
I personally would put up with the fee increases, if nothing else than by
simply raising shipping charges to cover the increases, but the no - feedback
to buyers is the thing that will send me on my way.

Even as a casual seller I have over 1,200 + fb with 3 negs. Whoevers
brainchild it was to give sellers no recourse in dealing with overbearing,
unsatiable buyers ought to be kicked in the head.
With no fear of retalitation, we can now expect a flood of negs to descend
upon hapless sellers, and I personally do not have time to deal with the
mental bullshit angle of all of this, so as of the day when this policy is
started will be the last day I ever sell anything on ebay until this bonehead
policy is rescinded.

I know, don't let the door hit me in the ass, less competition for all you
sellers who don't mind continually taking it up the ass because you have no
other life or source of income outside of ebay .... Have fun, is all I can
say - And when you accumulate enough negs, I presume you will be suspended
and/or NARU'ed by ebay, unless they modified that rule also.
