How to get my Trader History updated

[JWL Images]

So I have been here for awhile (although I don't post very often). I have completed 2 sales, but Photrio still shows me as zero transactions.

Do I need to do something to get this updated? And if so, I would really appreciate some guidance...

Thank you,

John

At the time of the sale ask for the feedback. You may want to go back and request the feedback. It is not done automatically.

Hi Sirius Glass,

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.

Regards,

John

The Trader History comes from the people you traded with - ask them for it.

Yes, I got it. Thanks!

So, not sure if this applies, getting feedback and history from someone who has history here carries more weight.

I have sold and bought LOTS of camera stuff on this site over the years.

Anyone who can add to my history would be appreciated. Naturally only those who I have done busy with.

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.

I have been careful to make sure the feedback was filled out for all transactions since Trader History was added.

Well, now I don't feel so bad...
