[time-nuts] eBay saga re: Test Equipment Surplus, eBay id jtsele, aka jtsele at pacbell.net aka Joon Kyong.

Feedback sniping used to be a very good technique.
I think that you had 90 days (to the second) to leave feedback.
But sometime 'round about a year ago, eBay changed the system
so that you have a minimum of 90 days.  I do not know if they
extend the time for you to leave feedback if the other party
left feedback near the end of the 90 days, or if it is more a
function of the vagaries of how full their servers are.

>From the eBay help pages:
"If you need to leave feedback for a transaction that is more than 90 days
old, you may do so using the "single transaction form" link located on the
Leave Feedback page. Remember, eBay only commits to items being available
for 90 days, so if it is greater than 90 days you may not be able to leave
feedback."

The answer to that problem is to use the 90 day limit on posting feedback
to your advantage.  If you need to post a negative feedback, wait until the
last minute, and post away.  By the time the seller finds out, it is too
late.

I should mention this to the author of the sniping program I am using, and
see
if he will add a snipe feedback function.
