What Are The Real Requirments For Top Rated Seller?

tanner1274 — Sun, 09 Sep 2012 06:02:31 GMT

Hi,

I was just curious as to why the only Top rated sellers I see have almost perfect feedbacks.

eBay lists the requirements as 4.4 minimum in every category and 98%+ feedback score.

But I have seen account that seem to meet that, with a 98.5 and some 4.7 - 4.8. So why dont these account gets power seller status?

Thanks,

Daniel

Most TRS accounts seem to have 99.5+ feedback and all 4.9 - 5.0's, are these the real requirements?

They are not a secret. If you go to your seller dashboard it will show you exactly what needs to be done.

Firstly, you must be a powerseller. You cannot be a TRS using the 30 free listings. Then you can't get more than a certain number of lower (ie 1 & 2) DSR's in a 3 month period

You also need to minimize the number of low level ratings (1 or 2 stars is a low rating).

I think it is 2 low levels for description (not sure on percent but that needs to be over as well) over 3 or 12 months depending on sales volume and you will loose TRS status.

Just a question, so once you become a Top Rated Seller, does it affect your 30 free listings? and is there any increase in fees? Thanks

to become TRS you first need to be a powersellr, thats the #1 requirement for TRS,

Powersellers and ebay Store members do Not get 30 free listings a month.

the 30 free listings are just for casual sellers, or those wanting to see if ebay is suitable for them.

Thank you Putney for explaining it to me.

I have found that postage time is the hardest DSR to keep down in terms of low level ratings. Sometimes I wait until the following day to post.....
