I am one of those buyers who absolutely dislike shopping carts.

-adding your items to your shopping cart, then next page is reviewing your items, then you can delete unwanted items, add new items, again, review them, then get the total and then sent to a secure web page to pay by secure means!
BLAH BLAH BLAH....... just lost an hour to buy 3 items! SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO time consuming IMO.

I like the adding the strikes next to the bid history page.....

blocking the IP address is not fair, where as these days, there are many users of one computor, or many users logged on via the one internet source. Even in my home, we all have wireless laptops, fones, and the (main computor) at times, 5 of us could be logged into ebay at the one time. 🙂
I also like the 3 x 3 strikes and your out idea.

I dont have any real fix-it-ideas..... sorry Kazbar 🙂

Couldn't care less about feedback really. Its the $$$ in the account that I care about...But yes, if everyone left feedback for me I would have double on what I have.

As far as feedback goes, I don't think it's finished. It may just be a slow week. Also, eBay does state that buyers generally leave feedback two to four weeks after a transaction and this does hold true in alot of cases. As a seller, DSRs are very important to me and something that reminds me to keep trying to be accurate in the listings and offer a good service.

As far as blocks, I think the system should be more steamlined to allow both parties to mutually agree to cancel. If a seller offers a Mutual Cancellation and the buyer turns them down, they should be allowed to open a UPI in the appropriate timeframe. There needs to be a transparency where sellers who have a non-payer can rest assured they will get their fees back no matter what. If buyers were told that the seller actually can be out $10 or more because they didn't pay, they might start agreeing to the cancellation requests. A UPI is too harsh of a route to go. Sellers need a nicer (but 100% reliable) way of getting their fees back.

Totally agree with you. Most people cannot be bothered to leave feedback anyway, unless they wish to be rude! It's totally fake anyway. 'I 'll say nice things about you if you say nice things about me!' Scrap it!

I propose a system similar to the education system 50 years ago. 

Ebay could have a virtual corner where a sellers ID could be stared at by everyone if the seller has misbehaved.  They could also be made to type out lines 100 times over, eg:  I will not use bubble wrapping that is already popped to wrap breakables.

Keyboards could be wired to give quick, sharp knuckle shocks to anyone who was rude (buyer and seller alike), like a rap with a ruler. 

Members could throw spitballs at people they didn't like, or just to distract others while they put in the final bid.
