Ebay cheat.

[j2buttonsw]

Will this ebay cheat work? If I want to maintain my Ebay profile negative-feedback free but I am expecting a bad reaction could I deactivate my account, wait for 90 days then reactivate it again? I believe you cannot leave any feedback to an account no-longer active and you have a 90 day time limit when leaving feedback. What is the deal when reactivating? Can you open up a new account and import feedback from your old one? Thanks.

Second question first...you can't import feedback from one account to another....the next one I don't know I would have to say it most likely depends on the type of feedback...if it's only going as far as a standard feedback complaint then it might work but if the other users contacts eBay directly then they will get in touch with you and ask for your side of the story and they then might hold on to the feed back till your account is re-activated...It might be worth your while to just accept the negative feedback and comment on it yourself once it arrives, unless you have a very low score on ebay it won't put most people off.

Thanks for that. Actually I was the one wanting to send the negative feedback but the sneaky SOB has unregistered his account. If he reactivates it in more than 90 days, I will be unable to give him the punishment he deserves!

Your best bet is to actually email ebay control who will keep track and may well post the negative feedback on your behalf if the account is ever reactivated.
