Buying positive feedback.

[Robert M]

I just noticed that there are people buying and selling positive feedback points on eBay.

It seems sorta shifty to me.

 

What do you think? I came across a newbie seller with 14 of these things in his positive feedback. I am having more doubts about bidding on his auctions than if he had 0 feedback.

I did that without knowing one time when I first started on ebay. There was an auction claiming he had the "Soup Nazi" recipies from Seinfeld. and he had auctions with .50 BINs and I used it and he instantly emailed me telling me not to pay that it was just a scheme for getting feedback. Needless to say that I got one feedback for free, and then left him one also. Not that I would do it on purpose, what is the point, if you can look at the feedback items and see they were illegitimate.
