Understanding ratings so you can gauge a member's reputation

How to gauge a member's reputation
Ratings are shown on the member's profile page. Click on a member's User ID or Rating Score next to their User ID to view their profile. The profile page shows a summary of their buying and selling activities and ratings and comments received. These ratings can be used to gauge a member's buying and selling reputation.

Rating Summary

Rating score is calculated by adding the Satisfied ratings (2 points each) and then subtracting any Unsatisfied ratings (-2 points each). For example (100 x 2) - (0 x 2) = 200

Ratings are broken down into Selling and Buying, to enable you to easily determine a member's Selling or Buying reputation.

Selling summary

  • All = All items the member sold and ratings received for each item
  • Unique buyers = Items purchased and ratings received from unique buyers* that purchased from the member
  • Ratings (Satisfied, Neutral or Unsatisfied) = Ratings left to the member from buyers
  • Satisfied buyers = Shows percentage of unique buyers* that were Satisfied

Buying summary

  • All = All items the member purchased and ratings received for each item
  • Unique sellers = Items sold and ratings received from unique sellers* that sold to the member
  • Ratings (Satisfied, Neutral or Unsatisfied) = Ratings left to the member from sellers
  • Satisfied sellers = Shows percentage of unique sellers* that were Satisfied

* Unique buyers/sellers means unique User IDs that purchased/sold that left a rating.
