All GSP related feedback comments and postage DSRs are removable.
I thought ebay 'encouraged' honest/factual feedback. I don't necessarily have to mention the words GSP or PB to get my point across....
On the one hand, I can see that the seller has some responsibility for their decision to use the GSP when you consider there's a lot of information available out there about it resulting in disappointing transactions.
On the other hand it still (just to me personally) seems equivalent to giving bad feedback to a seller over Australia Post issues, and that's the tact eBay have decided upon, I presume - in that a seller using the GSP has no control over how the shipment is handled once it has left them, and because everything can be proven via tracking (being a part of eBay's system helps), eBay extends some measure of protection to the GSP and the sellers who use it.
I'm not saying it's right, just saying what is - it's annoying, especially when you consider that it's perfectly fine by eBay for buyers to leave bad feedback etc over non-eBay sanctioned postal service failures, and even in their feedback extortion help pages, they say it's perfectly ok to threaten sellers with negs if an item doesn't arrive 'tomorrow' (where tomorrow is the day after eBay's estimated delivery date).
