That's an interesting link, twyngwyn.
I recall back in the days when I first joined this forum, that a lot of boardies were adamant that feedback should never be about the product, only the seller performance.
I take the point but as a buyer, I find some comments about the products to be useful.
Maybe ebay would be better off to leave the star rating for the product as optional.
(From what I can make out, some of the buyers who had this pop up were not able to leave feedback at all unless they also gave a product rating.)
As someone commented, it might be very well and good to rate a new product, but what if you are buying something that is used and described in the ad as quite worn or with faults or whatever. In other words, it might arrive exactly as described, but the product itself may not get a 5 star rating.
