I want to bid on something from ebay, the auction ends this afternoon. However, I noticed the seller had 2 negatives. Both of the negatives were items that she WON, not selling. Seems she never contacted the sellers and made good on her bids. Her selling record is much better. Everyone seems to be satisfied on that end...do you think it would be too risky to buy from her? I've only bought from ebay twice and it was long ago. I'd appreciate the help.
Thanks for any help.
Lisa

If it's not a very expensive item I'd try it. Were by chance the negatives from the same seller?

I have a couple of negatives too, but they were retalitory (sp) negatives. I got something I wasn't supposed to get, or got ripped off, left a negative, so they left one too. After that, I don't even leave feedback unless they leave it for me first... (when I'm the buyer) You might look at the feedback that this person has left for others... to see if the negatives are in retaliation.

I agree with Melissa. I've seen that as well.

If the negatives were a while back, and there's only been positives since, then I wouldn't worry too much about it.

It would also depend on how many positives they have versus the 2 negatives. If they have 100 positives and 2 negatives I wouldn't be as worried as if they had 6 positives and 2 negatives.

I'd go ahead and buy from her, I agree with melissa, I don't leave negatives unless they leave me one, though i've left neutral several times, sellers don't or can't contact me for some reason and I can't contact them information is wrong. etc... I sell alot on ebay, I've received one negative and she actually didn't mean to leave it. but none the less the damage was done. she was leaving for someone else and left it for me instead.
