"Dear str8bacardil, As you know, eBay's Feedback system is a big part of what makes eBay fun and rewarding for buyers and sellers. We're writing to let you know about some exciting new features coming during the week of April 30--features designed to make Feedback more valuable for buyers and a stronger showcase for your great service record. Detailed Seller Ratings help you stand out. In addition to the current positive, negative, or neutral comment, buyers will now be able to rank, on a scale of 1-5, four key aspects of a transaction: accuracy of item description, communication, shipping time, and shipping and handling charges. After a seller receives 10 of these rankings, the average scores will appear as a series of stars under a new section on the Feedback Profile page titled "Detailed Seller Ratings." This new feature will provide more transparency to boost shopper confidence--and help your good reputation stand out at a glance. Also, the item title and price will appear next to each Feedback comment. This will add helpful information for shoppers and encouragement to those in the market for what you sell. Please take a minute to review all the new Feedback features coming soon. And be sure to check out these helpful tips for building and maintaining your solid Feedback record. Sincerely, eBay Trust & Safety Team"

Looks like a good feature for buyers to research a seller before purchasing from them. I have had some bad transactions with people who overall had good feedback before.

Also the feedback system showing the title of items and prices sold is a good idea. I think a lot of scammers register, sell a bunch of pot holders or some crap for a few bucks, then list a bunch of high end electronics which sell because they have established feedback. Thats when they start ripping people off.

Under the new system you can research a sellers history with things in the price range you are buying. These changes are long overdue.

i had one thing (not from ebay though) shipped between 2 giant pieces of cardboard taped together into a makeshift pocket. it looked like it had been dropped out of a plane by the time it got to me, but the item was surprisingly fine.

looks like the weedeater is supporting the packaging more than the other way around
