Thanks digi. Have to admit , it all still seems a  bit "Wishy Washy" to me. To be really honest, it makes no sense 😞  Or is it the way I'm reading it ???

Well, I think the translation leaves quite a bit to be desired, but this is actually an announcement about a new feature that helps sellers keep track of the "bad transaction rate", so it's not information about how the rate can or will affect their accounts, as such, but as you can see, it also confirms that eBay.cn implements the Global Seller standards (if you look at your dashboard, you'll find that you have the option to view your performance rating by the standards of eBay.com.au, or by global standards).

I suspect that Chinese sellers are held to the global standards based on this and other info I read on the site, as well as the fact that the majority of them would list on other sites. 

I also saw an announcement that was the same as we (and other sites like UK and US) got, letting them know that PayPal disputes opened past the eBay MBG timeframe won't count as a "bad transaction", so they definitely have a defect system.

There are other announcements, including a time limit for delivery of items to buyers in Germany.
