If this individual is the shady character he seems to be, how in the hells of Zamooth can he have 100% FB on over 29K transactions?

I ran across him this weekend when I was Searching Upper Works to see if it had any value to speak of. (I have a mint copy.)

Your % rating is only calculated over a 12 month period, furthermore, it is rounded up, so provided you have less than 5 complaints per 1000 over the preceding 12 month period, you are 100% squeeky clean. There was rumour eBay were going to change it to six months to increase the clenliness of their sellers, but I don't know if it actually happened yet.

All that, plus Cougie has had little choice but to clean up his act.  The tolerance for bad sellers is pretty low now, and a buyer can get his money back for basically any reason, and a bad DSR or two is much worst than a negative feedback. I still wouldn't buy from him due to issues I still hear about from buyers (poor condition items, inflated shipping, etc).

I am still smarting from the Hydell I bought from Cougie years back. I paid just $100, but the description said 'a few light pencil marks'. It is the most heavily penciled item I have ever seen. It was if it had been attacked by a muscleman with a 6B pencil.

We're all aware of CougarRetard's reputation. I don't think it was appropriate to start 3 separate threads about him in the Acaeum, despite your bad experience. We're not into flame wars, we're into collecting.
