BULLSHIT!!
I never bought from any assholes on ebay but I have sold to several.

I don't. I'm more of a buyer on ebay.
I see what you're saying, though... but, still - in its present system, the thing's broken. I mean, here I sit with a HP AC adapter I bought 3 months ago that's about half the length of the factory adapter (when there was no mention of length in the original ad)... and I haven't left any negative feedback yet because:
1) the owner keeps giving me the run-around, saying he's sending me out a replacement cord.
2) Not sure this is really a "negative feedback" type thing... caveat emptor, and such - sure it wasn't the length I expected, but the length also wasn't stated anywhere (though that might lead one to assume it's at least nearly as long as the factory cord - which this wasn't).
The seller still hasn't left any feedback - even though I've paid... so I'm kinda thinking they're waiting for me to make the first move, and they'll follow suit... and that bothers me. I lived up to my end of the deal - paid in full seconds after the auction closed... but if I mention that the product isn't quite what I was expecting, suddenly I'm the bad guy, and a terrible buyer?
Maybe the feedback system should be blind. Meaning: you don't know what the other posted about you until you've posted your feedback about them.
