Has anyone else noticed that the dashboard hasn't updated in nearly six weeks now?
All of ebay's averages have stayed the same. Talk about a crock. If it were truely adjusted for averages, it would be different daily, or at the very least weekly. It is mathematically impossible for it to stay the same for six weeks.
Clearly, ebay don't give a hoot about their sellers.

They give a hoot...that is why they send us these e-mails;
"Minimum 4.3 detailed seller ratings (DSRs) required to keep selling on eBay: The vast majority of eBay sellers—some 96%—are well above this threshold. To protect the interests of all these sellers, starting November 1 eBay will no longer allow the few who don’t deliver on basic standards of customer satisfaction to sell on eBay. Sellers will be evaluated on the past 30 days of DSRs. Sellers who’ve received less than ten DSRs in the past 30 days will be evaluated on their DSRs over the last 12 months. Sellers with no DSRs will still be allowed to list."
And like AMAZON...YOU have NO CONTROL or PROOF of it if the numbers they are giving you are LEGITIMATE! Piss them off and guess who will get the lower numbers and claims.
