What happened was that ebay got swamped by some seriously stupid  
buyers. I use that Toolhaus app. to check negative feedback as I'm  
interested in why, as well as how much. I see some daft stuff -  
people who left negative when the item didn't get right across the  
world in three days and for other quite trivial matters - and  
neutrals for things I'd have burned the seller for. 'He sent me the  
wrong item but it was excellent quality' - neutral?!  Even people who  
just hit the wrong button - a negative with a positive comment.
This allows a seller to escape a shaky start, leave the odd  
unwarranted neg. behind (thanks!) and lose neg. feedback left by  
utter squirrels who are eventually suspended. It's not bad.
Keeping it simple is often stupid - very.
