feedback neg after positive pickup?

rather peeved -approaching 5000 positive feedback and wake easter morn to find I've been neged.

 

I know it happens to most of us.  However this looks to be new ebayer who emailed me asked for $2 reduction on buy it now price - I agreed - less than 12 hrs to go so said just pay $10 on pickup.

 

They paid me for the bag, said their daughter would be very pleased with the brand name bag.

 

a) does PS status protect me for 8 days prior to leaving feedback still?  perhaps it does as it was picked up last sat they've waited to leave nasty feedback...

b) no contact since the pickup re their new dissatisfaction

 

I've emailed them, sent thru a revision of feedback and replied to the feedback.

 

this has happened before.  the pickups have been pleasant chatty and then down the track you get a neg.  these two faced people really upset me - they come to my home - are friendly and then this. I allow pickups to get more buyers, save them money and me the 10% and most of the time its convenient.

I also straight away gave them positive feedback as I saw no reason not to and to get their new account off the ground, broke my rule of never leaving feedback first.  How silly was I? 

 

anything else I can do?

If you want to find out exactly what DSRs you've received from a buyer, you first need to find 10 previous feedbacks where you have received 5 stars for each category. You do this by going to your Seller Dashboard and running Detailed seller ratings reports (in the left column) in the "Item Numbers" mode, and creating reports by entering 10 item numbers at a time until you find 10 numbers where you have received 5 stars for all of them. This is very time consuming and can take quite a while before you find 10 numbers which have had all 4 categories marked with 5 stars (some buyers don't score DSRs at all).

 

When you do, save them to a separate file because from now on you'll use these particular numbers to check individual new item numbers from buyers, one at a time. To see what a buyer has given you, create a new report using 9 of the known perfect numbers, and the new number, and when the report is created, check the average DSRs. If your new buyer has given you all 5s then the average will be 5 for the entire 10 numbers.

 

However, if he's marked you down in any categories, the average will be less than 5, so you then open the results and you will immediately see exactly which score you've been given for each specific category. The only proviso is that you wait until about 24 hours after feedback has been left to give the system time to catch up, or the number may not yet be in the system.

 

Don't forget that you have to run one report for each new item number you receive, otherwise the results may be skewed, especially if more than one item has been scored at less than 5 in one or more categories. Also, it can sometimes take several minutes for a report to be created, so you need to be patient.

Excellent info! I realized after my post, that all the steps I highlighted will only show which items had defects.
