Thanks for your response. Am I understanding this correctly - that "Trader History" only applies to transactions for which you have feedback? If so, that seems a bit disappointing - I was hoping that one's "History" is simply the number of transactions, and feedback a whole different item. Especially since getting feedback is hit-or-miss at best (and many folks here seem unaware of it at all).
I will take your advice & seek out some feedback. Thanks again.
Thanks all for these responses. Eric, your example is what I was suggesting could be problematic - you do have history here since 2002 (!), I assume lots of positive trading experiences, yet your Trader History = Zero. I can imagine someone seeing that and taking it as a negative if they don't look carefully...
Ah well, it is what it is. I like this forum and can easily adapt to the 'rules of the road' here.
Mine's zero too, and I've bought and sold a lot of stuff over the years. Unlike eBay, that's fine here, it really doesn't seem to have the same connotation. What's embarrassing (and alarming) is seeing that over about the same period of time I've had well over 2,000 eBay transactions.
