Dean,

    I know what you mean about fear of negative
feedback.  I spent $$0 getting rid of underserved
feedback from a seller that never produced over $360
worth of parts that I had paid for.  When I left
negative feedback for him after almost 3 months of
waiting and getting broken promises,  he retaliated. 
The only way to get that removed is to go through
Square Trade and pay them $39.99 per claim (unless you
become a member for one year at around 150 bucks)  Now
I did recover most of the $$ paid,  and I chose to
spend the money to remove the feedback,  and I took
action to have the seller removed from Ebay (ryanjs63
AKA Ryan Stephens).  Now I realize I said in a
previous e-mail that if you asked the questions,  read
the feedback you would not get hurt,  and what I just
described is a hurt,  but PayPal covered the losses, 
and Ebay covered the $25 fee paypal charged.  So I was
only out the money it cost me to prove a point to the
seller about lying to me.
