that's exactly why we don't have such a system
edit : I can also add somebody threaten to add a negative remark which marks poofed item, though it didn't poof AT ALL, in order to regain my fg - easy scammed fg
so abuseable
Well the main objection to my idea seems to be that the system will be too easy to abuse. I think that fear is overrated since almost every big trading site on internet has a feedback system and obviously they wouldnt have them around if they had serious abuse problems. There needs to be a balance between the seller and the buyer for a trading system to work. Right now there is very little a buyer can do to warn others about dishonest sellers and therefore the system benefits the seller too much. Remember that this is the internet and the only way to know if your dealing with a scammer or honest user is to watch their past behaviour towards other users. If no trade history(= feedback comments) is available then you are sitting duck!
Also if a single user that dislikes you or tries to blackmail you for a refund gives you negative feedback it wont really matter for your reputation but if 10 different well established users report you sold them unperms as perm then obviously it is unlikely they are all lying, wouldnt you agree?
I have yet to hear good arguments against this. Good arguments would be if for instance maybe the site load on this site cant handle this system or maybe it would mean too much coding work for Njaguar to be realistic.
