Seems to me the connection is somewhat obvious. As for eBay's procedures, they provide a link to, "Ask a question" rather than to "Compliment seller on the rarity of their item" or "Start a conversation" etc. -- Golan Klinger Dark is the suede that mows like a harvest.

Don't be silly, Ebay is NOT a community. Ebay is ONLY for selling/buying stuff. Go to facebook for that. -- -=[]=--- iAN CooG/HVSC & C64Intros ---=[]=- A feature is a bug with seniority.

Since you're advising contacts about these things, I'd respectfully ask you reconsider the above advice in relation to offering "compliments". Additional wording sounds fine, but if compliments are to be sent, I'd highly recommend using the correspondence link from the seller profile page. Casual users of eBay probably won't mind either way, but recurring sellers may grow weary of such use of the auction correspondence system. If you know the seller outside of eBay, I'd actually recommend email be sent via an alternate channel. That way, the seller can read/respond to the accolades at their leisure. Jim

As icing on the cake the guy now thinks posting things I can prove he said is libel. And how did he let me know this? the ebay communication system. Really. I have 18 messages in ebay atm, all but one from this guy. |
